But in 2013, their idyll comes to an end. They formalize their breakup after seventeen years together and fourteen years of marriage. “Yes, Vincent and I are separating. Our respective lives have taken us away from each other (…) But there will always be love between us. Even if our paths diverge, Vincent and I will always be there for each other.” explained the actress at the time for the magazine Chi.
“Love Doesn’t Go Away”
“We have always loved each other with respect, with real feelings, and we separate in the same way. It is in no way a question of a war divorce, with undersides that should be revealed. Love does not disappear, it changes. A lot of things can change, but our family will always remain intact. (…) We were both responsible for the vitality of our couple, we are just as responsible for its end”, she said for the Italian version of Vanity Fair.
A few years later, in 2019 more precisely, the Italian actress revealed, in the columns of Madame Figarobe at the origin of this separation. “I made the decision. But when you leave someone, it doesn’t mean you don’t love them anymore. This means that it is no longer possible to continue“, she confided, adding that she had “suffered greatlyof this breakup.
