Italian prime minister splits with boyfriend after he’s caught asking woman if she wants to have a ‘foursome’
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has dumped her sleazy TV presenter boyfriend — after a lewd audio recording surfaced of him asking a woman if she would be interested in group sex.
“Listen, I wanted to tell you something. Do you want to join our group? Will you join our working group?” Andrea Giambruno, Meloni’s boyfriend of 10 years, is heard asking a woman on the tape aired on the Italian show “Striscia La Notizia.”
When the woman, a colleague of Giambruno’s, responds favorably, he explains that there is a catch.
“You have to give us something in return,” Giambruno, host of Italian talk show “Diario Del Giorno,” tells the woman.
“My expertise?” the woman cheekily replies.
Giambruno responds, “You have to do threesomes or foursomes with us … We f–k.”
The shocking ask came after Giambruno, who shares a 7-year-old daughter with Italy’s first female prime minister, made another obscene remark during his conversation with the woman.
“Can I touch my package while I’m talking to you?” Giambruno is heard saying.
“You already did it,” the woman shoots back, before she is quizzed by Giambruno about whether the two have met before and if he was “drunk” at the time.
The perverted exchange was apparently the last straw for Meloni, who revealed in an X post that her relationship with Giambruno has “diverged for some time.
Meloni had been in a relationship with Giambruno for 10 years and shares a daughter with the talk-show host.
“My relationship with Andrea Giambruno, which lasted almost ten years, ends here,” Meloni said. “I thank him for the splendid 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.
“Our paths have diverged for some time, and the time has come to acknowledge it. 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 was unable to love mine. I have nothing else to say about this,” she added.
Meloni, a member of the right-wing Brothers of Italy party, was sworn into office in October of last year.
While not married to Giambruno, Meloni frequently promoted traditional family and conservative values on the campaign trail, according to Politico Europe.
“I ask the coalition government from now on to abstain from preaching traditional family values to anyone,” said Riccardo Magi, a top official with the Piu Europa party, after Meloni announced her breakup, according to the outlet.
Italy has been hindered by weak economic growth and high interest on the country’s national debt, which is expected to reach 140% of Italy’s GDP by the end of 2023, during Meloni’s first year in office.
