Lady Gaga recently shared on her social media a photo of her next House of Gucci (Ridley Scott), which she stars alongside Adam Driver. It will be his most recent film since A Star is Born, which earned him an Oscar nomination in 2019.
In House of Gucci she will play Patrizia Reggiani, a woman convicted of ordering and planning the murder of her ex-husband, Mauricio Gucci, grandson of Giuccio Gucci, founder of the well-known fashion house. The film, based on the book The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamor, and Greed by Sara Gay Forden, has a tentative release date of November 2021.
The couple met at a party in Milan and had two daughters: Allegra and Alessandra. In 1985, after 12 years of marriage, Gucci left Reggiani for another woman. Maurizio Gucci was assassinated on November 27, 1995: he was shot by an unknown man as he was leaving his home in Milan. In 1997, Reggiani was found guilty of plotting the murder and subsequently sentenced to 29 years in prison. Through her seer, Pina Auriemma, she hired a gunman named Benedetto Ceraulo to finish off her ex-husband.
In several interviews in court, she declared that she despised her ex-husband. “I have to admit for a while that I wanted to get rid of him. I wanted to get rid of him and I was asking people if I could do it. But my intention stopped there, an obsession, a desire ”. Paola Franchi, the tycoon's last partner, said Reggiani frequently harassed them and threatened to kill her ex-husband, she told The Guardian. Franchi even suggested to Gucci that they hire security personnel, but he did not want to.
After several years, Reggiani did not admit his guilt. “I don't think I'm innocent, I think I'm not guilty. But in the "not guilty", I admit that I have made several mistakes, "he declared in an interview in 2002.
She was released in 2013. She could have been released 2 years earlier but rejected parole in 2011, as she declared in one of her most memorable appointments: "that would mean having to find a job and I haven't worked a day of my life" . Another of his great phrases was: “I'd rather cry in a Rolls-Royce than be happy on a bicycle.” In 2014, he got a volunteer job at the jewelry firm Bozart as a stylist, which allowed him to return to the world of fashion. from when he met the Trumps and Kennedys, what he wore at that time, and what he would wear today, "Maurizio Manca, owner of the company, told Forbes.
In 2017, the case attracted attention again, as a judge granted her the millionaire lifetime pension that she had agreed with her ex-husband, in addition to 26 million euros in arrears (one per year) that she had not received. His two daughters appealed the sentence, first with the Milan Court of Appeal, and later with the Supreme Court of Italy. In 2018, Reggiani announced that he was giving up his inheritance in exchange for a less considerable sum (which has not been specified), spending “some time a year” in a family home in Saint Moritz, and seeing his grandchildren, with whom he never has had a relationship.
A story full of intrigue, which we will see soon in theaters.
