She looks like Andalusian extract. I wonder how that marinates with the native Mexicans?

She is a native Mexican. She is obviously a mestiza (mixed race), probably with a very long ancestry of mixed blood - we are talking of almost 500 years of interbreeding here. Like most Mexicans in fact. Genuine pure-blood Indios are a minority.

The differences come in the variations in proportions of Native/European ancestry. Self-selection and the practice of breeding “up” has created a continuum of indio to white, at least in appearance, which is highly correlated with social status.
