The Jane the Virgin star told Women's Health Magazine about her struggle with thyroid disease, which she eventually learned was Hashimoto's disease. She felt that it would make it difficult for her to act on top of the fact that she is Latina. "Then I thought, how much greater is my story?," she told the magazine. "The second I stopped feeling that I wasn't enough was the second I realized I was capable of doing anything."

While accepting the young humanitarian award at Variety's Unite4:Humanity event, Gina gave a moving speech with tears about her family and dedicated the award to her parents. "They taught me that being good was a standard that doesn't need praise or recognition," she said. "That the more you hel others succeed, you, too, will succeed."
