Nacho Vidal height - How tall is Nacho Vidal?

In February 2019, a Spanish newspaper stated that Nacho Vidal has HIV. Later that year, in a 12-minute YouTube video, he clarified that his test was a false positive for HIV. What he does have, he found after visits to a series of doctors, is Reiter's syndrome, a highly painful, sometimes chronic or lifelong, reactive arthritis. This inflammatory syndrome is often triggered by a prior, treatable infection which may itself resolve (be healed). In Vidal's case, he explains, it was repeated infections by the STDs candidiasis and gonorrhea contracted during his sex work, each instance baving been quickly treated and cured. Because of the disease he cannot work and is seeking disability benefits.

On 16 October 2012, Vidal and his sister María José Jordá González were arrested in Barcelona, suspected of involvement in money laundering and tax evasion on behalf of Chinese organized crime. When Spanish police raided over 100 businesses in Madrid and Barcelona suspected of running money-laundering and tax evasion rackets in connection with the Chinese mob, Vidal and his sister were two of approximately 80 suspects detained. Hundreds of police were involved in serving "warrants to search 120 properties belonging to those suspected of laundering money from prostitution and extortion."

While Spanish prosecutors sought to hold Vidal in jail during the investigation and subsequent trial, on 19 October 2012, National Court Judge Fernando Andreu declined their request and instead accepted the defense's contention that, "Vidal is not a flight risk because he signed a contract to participate in a reality show for the next three months." Upon his no-bail release, Vidal announced, "Thanks to everyone for their support. I've gone without any charge."

On 31 May 2005, Vidal announced his retirement from pornography and married Colombian model Franceska Jaimes. They moved to a mansion previously owned by his family, located in the small town of Enguera, in Valencia, recovering it after his family's financial losses. He and his wife decided to start a family there. However, the couple separated six weeks later, and Vidal returned to porn only a few months after announcing his retirement. They have two children, and divorced in 2015.

In his prolific career Vidal has starred in more than 1,500 movies; he has also produced and/or directed many others (since 2000, this has included gay titles for the Evil Angel video company). Although self-stated as heterosexual, he has directed some gay porn films.

In 1994, young Vidal started working in the live porn club Bagdad of Barcelona, where he performed live sexual acts in front of an audience with his real-life Spanish girlfriend Sara Bernat (born 1976). There, he met the director of the Barcelona International Erotic Film Festival, José María Ponce, who introduced him into the world of porn films. Vidal became a protégé of Rocco Siffredi, who brought him to Hollywood in 1998.

When he was very young, Jordà moved with his family to Valencia, where part of his family originated. His family was wealthy, but ended up losing all their money in the 1987 stock market crash. At age 14, Vidal quit school to start working to help his family.
