Who are Jenna Ortega's siblings?

Actress Jenna Ortega is the fourth child of her parents, Natalie and Edward Ortega. In an interview with Mama’s Mission, the Stuck in the Middle actress spoke about how it feels to be a middle child. She said:

There are a lot of misconceptions about being the middle child, but it’s actually pretty cool. Your younger and older brothers and sisters feel that they can confide in you. If someone is going to miss an event, it’s usually the middle child, which causes the parents to feel guilty and try to make it up in other ways. Middle children get away with more stuff in general.

Jenna has five siblings: two brothers and three sisters. Here are the actress’ siblings, from the oldest to the youngest.
