Despite popular belief, Jenna doesn't possess any characteristics related to the Addams family.

Does Jenna Ortega have siblings?
Jenna was born in 2002 and grew up together with her parents and five siblings. But unlike her, it seems that none of her siblings chose to pursue a career in acting. With five siblings, the 20 year old actress was born in 2002 as the middle child. Being the middle child feels almost ideal for the character of Wednesday Addams, who is named for the middle day of the week.
She has two brothers- Isaac Ortega, who is the oldest of all, and Markus Ortega, 18, who is the the youngest. The Netflix actress also has three sisters- Mariah Ortega, 23, and Mia Ortega (born in 2000), who are both older than Jenna, and Aaliyah, the youngest sister along with her twin, Markus.
A brief on the Ortega siblings
Jenna's oldest sibling is Isaac. He is currently 24 years old and was born in 1998. After graduating from Xavier College Prep School, Isaac pursued a degree at Grand Canyon University. Mariah is Jenna's oldest sister and was born in 1999 and she is, admittedly, a very private person, and not much is known about her life.
Further, Mia is currently 22 years old and was born in 2000. She was raised in the Coachella Valley of Southern California with her brothers and sisters. With almost 10,000 followers, Mia has a well-liked Instagram account. The youngest Ortega siblings are twins Markus and Aaliyah, who were born in 2004 and are now both 18 years old.
Who are Jenna Ortega's parents?
Jenna was born to her parents, Natalie and Edward A Ortega, along with the rest of her siblings. Jenna once mentioned that her mother works as an emergency nurse. During the 'Wednesday' press tour, Jenna disclosed in a 2022 interview that neither of her parents are involved in the film business. The 'Wednesday' star said, “I have a very supportive family. They sacrificed a lot so that I could do what I do. Another thing I love about them is that they don’t care at all about what I do.” Jenna continued saying she is lucky that it was her siblings who supported her since the beginning of her acting career.
