Italy and the entire world woke up this Friday to news that surprised many. The Italian Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, has announced her separation from her until now partner, the journalist Andrea Giambruno, after some sexist comments that he himself made at a closed microphone to a co-worker during his television program were broadcast on television. . After the commotion caused, Meloni announced the end of her relationship with the father of her seven-year-old daughter.
“My relationship with Andrea Giambruno, which has lasted almost ten years, ends here. I thank her for the wonderful years we spent together, for the difficulties we went through and for giving me the most important thing in my life, which is our daughter Ginevra” , said the Prime Minister of Italy through a publication on social networks. In the image that accompanies her words, both appear with her daughter.
The leader of Brothers of Italy explains that their paths separated a long time ago, so it is time to “take note.” “I will defend what we were, I will defend our friendship and I will defend, at all costs, a seven-year-old girl who loves her mother and loves her father, as I could not love mine. I have nothing more to say about it” , she goes on to say, remembering the painful abandonment she suffered from her father when she was just a child.
This announcement comes after a few somewhat controversial months for Giambruno. The presenter has been in the spotlight after some controversial positions that he held as host of Diario del Giorno, a Mediaset journalistic program. However, everything has exploded recently, after the comedy program Striscia la notizia, from the same television group, broadcast conversations that he had at a closed microphone with his co-workers. This would be the trigger for the end of the relationship with the Prime Minister.
Giorgia Meloni and Andrea Giambruno have been together for seven years, and lived in Rome. Giambruno, for his part, is 42 years old and from Milan. He is a well-known television journalist and author of several Mediaset programs in Italy. The presenter graduated from the scientific secondary school of Monza and graduated in Philosophy from the Catholic University of Milan. His debut on television occurred in 2009, and from there he continued his career with participation in programs from the aforementioned communication group, such as Quinta Colonna, Matrix, Mattino 5 e Stasera Italia and Studio Aperto.
As for his private life, very little is known, since Giambruno is very reserved. On the other hand, he has a very rarely used Instagram profile. The truth is that the relationship between the two surprised many at first, since the political ideologies of the former couple were totally opposite. Meloni herself mocked on several occasions, ensuring that she had a kind of “enemy at home” because Andrea has a left-wing ideology, and she has a far-right ideology. “My partner is left-wing, now I think he will vote for me in the next elections. We discuss homosexuals, ethical issues, the legalization of soft drugs,” she said in an episode of Il Witness.
