Meet Dudu Camargo’s Parents: Andreia Camargo and Luiz Ángelo Dudu

Dudu Camargo, born Eduardo Ferreira de Almeida Camargo on June 1, 1998, in the Vila Formosa neighborhood of São Paulo, is a Brazilian television presenter, actor, model, and journalist who rose to national prominence at a young age. He is [1998061, Dudu Camargo] years old and stands about 1.70 meters tall.

He grew up in São Paulo’s eastern zone, in a working-class environment typical of much of the city, within a family of mixed heritage. Raised initially in a Catholic-influenced cultural setting common in Brazil, Camargo later experienced a religious shift, converting to evangelical Christianity between the late 2010s and early 2020s.

He became affiliated with the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, frequently speaking in interviews and public appearances about his faith, Bible study, and the role Pentecostal beliefs have played in his personal development.

Camargo’s entry into public life came early. At age nine, he was discovered by a modeling agency scout during a family outing at a shopping mall. This encounter led to work in modeling, children’s theater, and eventually television.

He attended local schools in São Paulo but did not complete secondary education through traditional means and does not hold a formal university degree in journalism. Following a 2009 Supreme Court decision that ended the requirement for a journalism degree in Brazil, he registered as a professional in the field.

He is the son of Andréia Camargo and Luiz Ângelo and has two sisters, Nájila Camargo and Natália Camargo. The family has remained based in São Paulo and has been described as a steady source of support throughout his career.

Camargo has never been married and has no children, keeping his romantic life largely out of public view. However, he has occasionally spoken of his desire to become a father in the future.

Camargo became widely known through his work at SBT, where he presented programs such as Primeiro Impacto and regularly appeared in entertainment segments. After leaving the network, he worked at TV Meio Norte and later expanded his public profile through reality television.

In 2025, he won A Fazenda 17, a victory that further solidified his standing as a recognizable figure in Brazilian popular culture.
