Hector Rodrigo Casagrande Gutiérrez[2] is a recurring character in The Loud House, who first appeared in "The Loudest Mission: Relative Chaos" and later a main character of its spin-off, The Casagrandes.

Biography

In "Señor Class" it was revealed that Hector never finished school, because he worked in the bodega since he was a little child.

Hector is the husband of Rosa, the father of Carlos and Maria, father-in-law of Frida, ex-father-in-law of Arturo and the grandfather of Carlota, CJ, Carl, Carlitos, Bobby and Ronnie Anne. He runs the bodega that the Casagrande family has next to their building.

Personality

Hector appears to be a very caring father and grandfather, and is happy whenever his family comes over. He’s very impressed with Bobby's ideas for how to run a store, and is more than happy to let Bobby take over the bodega in his place. He likes spreading gossips, but denies this whenever Rosa scolds him for that. He considers gossips as more trustworthy source of information than newspapers.

He’s an overprotective grandfather ready to spy and keep track on his grandchildren.

Hector is also very imaginative as he instantly assumed that a rat ate Ronnie Anne. He also claims that he’s where CJ got his imagination from.

Hector isn't very intelligent, because he makes stupid mistakes like confusing his clothes with clothes of Carl and Carlota, or the aforementioned assumption that Ronnie Anne had been eaten by a rat. It’s implied that Bobby inherited this trait from him.

Nick Description

Hector is Carlos and Maria's dad, and the Abuelo (aka Grandpa) of the family. He and his wife Rosa own the Mercado on the ground floor of their apartment building. Hector takes great pride in his work, his family and being the unofficial "mayor" of the block. He loves to tell stories, share opinions and gossip (even though he won't admit to it). You can find him working in the Mercado, playing guitar or watching his favorite novela.
