What feeling did you have at the time of the auditions?
«Every now and then I have the runes read to me (not Giovanni’s runes, mind you!), and the fortune teller told me that in February I would find love. That period coincided with the start of the program. He also told me that that person would be wearing a uniform and initially I thought it was Nicola because he was a footballer.”
What are you looking for in love?
«Let me be clear, I am not desperate, in fact in the past I have rejected various marriage proposals because they were not suitable people for me. I don’t regret it, but I have learned the art of compromise. Two years before the experiment I ended up with a man because he didn’t want to have any more children. If I were someone who was satisfied I would have taken him anyway.”
At the reunion it seemed she still had feelings for Davide. Was it like that?
«When I saw myself on TV I felt in love with Davide or Nicola because I relived strong sensations for people who at that moment are your whole world. Davide called me (I think as a strategy) telling me that he felt in love, but I told him that it was just the bubble. Even on the evening when the wedding episode was shown, while I felt bad, once again a bride left at the altar, I spent two hours on the phone with Davide to console him, but in the meantime I didn’t know that he was on social media talking badly about me. I told him: “You are fake!”. He was making fun of me.”
Which couple were you rooting for?
«Gergana and Parmi for the genuineness of their feelings, the intensity of their looks, even her embarrassed smiles in Morocco… and it’s nice that they tried to fit their lives together. Her promises at the altar were magnificent.”
Which one, however, didn’t completely convince you?
«I never believed Elisa and Alessandro Albero. In my opinion a 26 year old is not ready, especially if he doesn’t have a stable job. To have a child you also need that. And I’m not talking about wealth. However, I am sorry that she was not understood, she is very sensitive and – like me – has strong baggage. I don’t like how she responded to her best friend, it’s true, but it’s not easy to come home after months and not find your things in the place you left them.”
