AND So Francesco Totti had not invented everything when he told the Corriere della Sera to have discovered the evidence of his betrayal on his wife’s phone, At least according to what Cristiano Iovino said, the very tattooed personal trainer: “Between me and Ilary Blasi there was a true and intense relationship, intimate and sentimental”.
And he didn’t say it to a newspaper; He told a judge, Simona Rossi, who must decide on the separation between Totti and Blasi. According to the sworn testimony of Iovino, a lasting relationship was born between him and Ilary, made up of clandestine encounters in a luxurious hotel in Milan, facilitated by Alessia Solidani, friend of Ilary’s heart. It was 2020. Totti’s story with Noemi Bocchi begins in October 2021.
Ilary’s fiction, Uniqueon the other hand, begins with my interview with Totti, in which obviously Blasi does not recognize himself. And it is there. But then Mrs. Solidani, not even mentioned in that interview, sued me, and this is already less well. The lawsuit was archived.

Obviously it happened to me much worse, like when Cesare Previti sued me, at the time in which Berlusconi was the most powerful man in Italy, and his escort did not bring a strand of hair to journalists, he took them right in the stomach, to avoid drying. But this thing about the complaints is unpleasant, also because public opinion is never on our side.

The journalist only wins against the politician, but loses against all the others: Against the sports champion, against the fiscal elusive (against the sample elusive then torn), against anyone, in particular against the ordinary person. Maybe it does not lose in court, but loses in public perception, to the delight of many colleagues.
But sometimes we journalists are right too. A separation is always painful, even more so when the couple evoked a beautiful fairy tale. In that interview Totti did not denial that he had faults; claimed that he was not alone. And in any case the thing that will remain of his story is not the Rolex, it is the feeling of the curtain that closes, the retreat, the sporting death, the farewell to the father.
