Blasi-Totti divorce, the Rolex “war” heats up: why

The separation between Francesco Totti and Ilary Blasi continues to exist at the center of a large controversy concerning a series of Rolex watches, the subject of a civil lawsuit between the two ex-spouses. The diatribe on the infamous Rolexes took a new turn with a recent hearing that took place on Friday morning at the civil court of Rome.

Totti vs Blasi, the Rolex war continues

The Rolex affair, an integral part of the separation between the legendary Roma captain and the well-known presenter, seems to be increasingly complex and intricate. The legal process, which develops in parallel with the divorce procedure, reached a significant milestone with the last hearing held on April 19. Francesco Totti was seen near the courtaccompanied by his lawyer Antonio Conte, but remained silent in the face of journalists’ questions, even refusing to comment on Daniele De Rossi’s renewal.

This subtle distinction between possession and ownership of Rolex watches represents the heart of the current legal debate between Francesco Totti and Ilary Blasi. Although they both had access to and used the watches throughout their marriage, the key question is who actually has the legal right to own these watches after separation.

The last hearing (with surprise)

According to what was reported by the newspaper Repubblica, the “Pupone” would have unexpectedly participated in the hearing with his lawyer, Antonio Conte. However, it seems that the judge did not listen to his version, due to the rumors circulating in the previous days due to a change in strategy. Apparently – we read in the newspaper article – no testimony had been scheduled, therefore no statement from the former Giallorossi captain was expected in the current hearing, focused on the temporary possession of the watches rather than definitive ownership. Totti and his legal team are probably waiting a later stage of the process to set out their position on the question of ownership of the watches and how this knotty dispute should be resolved.

This hearing represents only one chapter in a larger dispute between the two former spouses. The past October 5thafter a judge’s ruling, Totti and Blasi had met to return some of the watches to the bank as required by the court. However, It seems there are still discrepancies regarding the number and authenticity of the returned watches, highlighting the delicacy and complexity of this separation.

The next and highly anticipated hearing

The next court date is scheduled for May 31st, when another hearing will be held regarding the separation of the two and the charge for the divorce will be decided. The question of Rolexes, meanwhile, remains one of the thorniest and most debated challenges in this long process of separation between Francesco Totti and Ilary Blasi.
