Valeria Marini talks about herself today in an interview with Corriere della Sera. In the conversation with Elvira Serra she talks about the first time she became pregnant with her: at 14 years old. «When I found out, my mom helped me. He was a not very balanced person, very possessive. I was just a little girl. It hurts me to talk about this thing, because when it happens, even if you’re a little girl, it stays with you.” She had an abortion: «Honestly, if I had been of age perhaps I would have kept that child. But I don’t have a character of regrets, I always look ahead. My mother gave me a second life, taking me away from a love that wasn’t giving me happiness nor would it. Sometimes, especially when you are so young, you have to trust those who love you. My mother took me back to Rome and she didn’t make a mistake.”
Lorenzo Cherubini
Then he talks about his love with Jovanotti: «I was almost 19 years old, neither he nor I were famous. We met in a disco in the summer, where he was a DJ and I worked as a poster girl, because I immediately supported myself, despite being from a wealthy family. She hadn’t met Cecchetto yet, but she already made everyone dream.” And she adds: «It was he who taught me to look at the stars on the night of San Lorenzo: I didn’t know that wishes are expressed. It was pure love, it lasted about a year. He became famous before me, he’s great, I respect him a lot for his joyful, sunny character, a bit like mine.” They met again «once at a show, and we greeted each other affectionately. We don’t talk anymore, but I’d like to make a record with him. I love his positive energy, the way he makes the lives of others lighter, which are already heavy, like now with the war… Love and faith save you.”
The last boyfriend
Then she explains why she ended up with her last official boyfriend, the Fratelli d’Italia deputy Gimmi Cangiano: «In our case, I decided to move away: for him it was a delicate moment and I wanted to give him the chance to find balance in his family situation. I am a person of values, very respectful of other women. He maintained a very affectionate relationship with his mother. Indeed, I must thank Gimmi, Senator Mollicone, Minister Sangiuliano and all those who have worked in recent months to include the Salone Margherita in the list of theaters considered “national monuments”. It will now be reopened. There I performed the last show, The President by Ninni Pingitore. Prophetic, I would say.”
