Alberti, who is here vacationing with his wife and daughter, "suffered severe abdominal pain", Alberto Navarro said.

"Jorge is very athletic, he enjoys doing a lot of exercises," Navarro said. "We trust in God that everything will go well, and we pray for his prompt recovery."

Alberti is currently co-starring with Gaby Spanic in the telenovela La Otra Cara Del Alma.

Though most of his work has been in television, Alberti's credits include a role in the film The Argentine, which featured Puerto Rican Oscar winner Benicio del Toro as iconic revolutionary Ernesto Che Guevara.
