Elena's older brother Bobby, played by Charlie Bushnell, also has a heartwarming story of self-discovery. Bobby, who is gay, came to terms with his sexuality in the first season and is now learning to use his voice and express his feelings.
"I'm just so proud to be able to play this awesome character and I've gotten messages from people all over the world who are telling me how much they love the show," Bushnell said.
"I've even gotten a few messages of people saying that they've even gotten the courage to come out to their families after watching this show, which has been really amazing," Bushnell added.
The series is loosely based on creator Ilana Peña's life and she feels extremely honored to bring this story to life with Disney, a brand that had such an influence on her growing up.

"I love that she's just kind of like a messy middle schooler who becomes president because that is kind of like the ultimate Disney princess," Peña said.
