Silvio Berlusconi: biography, political activity, personal life. All the women of Silvio Berlusconi Silvio Berlusconi and his women

20/01/2011

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi loves women. Many respond to him in return. And because of this, the politician often gets into stories. Now Berlusconi is just going through another sex scandal. Why not consider the trophies of the Italian seducer?


FROM Ilvio Berlusconi, to put it mildly, is not young. And not very attractive. But at least he's not boring. The Prime Minister does not go into his pocket for a word, swears noisily, justifies himself spectacularly, gets involved in troubles with lightning speed and deftly gets out of them. And Berlusconi is rich, influential and, according to rumors, beautifully caring. What else does a young Italian woman need without complexes? the Italian prime minister himself recent times, except for young liberated Italians, it seems that nothing is of interest.

This time, Silvio Berlusconi is accused of dealing with underage prostitutes. In Italy, sex with a minor carries a prison sentence of up to six years. While Berlusconi's guilt has not been proven, this week, on January 21, he must come to the prosecutor's office and give explanations. But the Italian parliament has already tried (including due to Berlusconi's debauchery) to impeach the prime minister. And when the attempt failed, hundreds and thousands of Italians took to the streets of Rome. They demanded that the prime minister be dismissed not only for unsatisfactory leadership of the state, but also for promiscuity.

While Berlusconi is fighting for a political career, Moroccan Karima el Marug - the most famous person involved in the sex scandal - has become a real celebrity. It was Berlusconi who allegedly slept with her; the girl under the stage name Ruby at the time was only 17 years old. Enthusiasts look for images of a girl bit by bit on the Internet, and on YouTube - videos with Karima (she is a nightclub dancer by profession). If we discard hypocrisy, in the photo and video you can see a very mature and extremely attractive person.

To assess whether the Italian politician Berlusconi has always been so picky, Salt took a look at all of his women. More precisely: all of which became known to the public. Obviously, the resulting list is far from complete. How many more of them were there in the life of the Prime Minister of Italy - not taken into account by the tabloids. Berlusconi himself would certainly not be able to name the exact number of his passions.

Carla Dall'Oglio


First wife of the Prime Minister. They got married in 1965. A year later, Silvio and Carla had a daughter, Maria Elvira (now on the board of directors of her father's Fininvest holding). And a few years later, the first son of a politician, Pierre Silvio, was born. In 1985, Silvio Berlusconi divorced Carla, one of the reasons was an affair with Veronica Lario.

Veronica Lario


Much more is known about the second - also already former - wife. Singer and actress Veronica Lario met Berlusconi in 1980 and married him in 1990. All their children were born before marriage: in 1984, Silvio and Veronica had a daughter, Barbara, in 1986, Eleonora, and in 1988, a son, Luigi. Veronica left the stage and took up their upbringing, and the Berlusconi settled in Villa Belvedere, the former residence of Queen Anne of Austria.

The marriage broke up after 19 years - Veronica was finished off by Silvio Berlusconi's addiction to young ladies. In 2009, the newspapers reported that the prime minister had come to the seventeenth birthday of model Noemi Letizia and presented her with a diamond necklace. “He was not at the seventeenth birthday of his children,” Veronica said and filed for divorce. Then there was a no less loud division of property and mutual reproaches of infidelity. By the spring of 2010, Berlusconi became a bachelor.

Noemi Letitia


The next friend of the prime minister was a young Italian model from Naples. Relations with her served as the reason for the break between Berlusconi and his second wife. The Italian leader justified himself before his wife and the nation: there was never anything with a minor blonde (dyed) - the politician honors the Criminal Code. It's just that the girl's parents are his Good friends and active supporters, so he came to Noemi's birthday, as a sign of respect for the family. Berlusconi even swore by the life of his children that he did not touch the girl with a finger. But who believed him?

Karima el Marug (Ruby)


In her eighteen years, Karima managed to do a lot (maybe that's why she looks 25). Ruby was born in Morocco, ran away from home, became a dancer in a nightclub, and, according to unconfirmed reports, worked as a prostitute. Karima became known to the general public in the spring of 2010. The girl was caught stealing. She was brought to the police station, but was soon released: Berlusconi himself called the prosecutor and said that Karima was the niece of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and it would be nice to let her go quietly, otherwise a diplomatic scandal could not be avoided. Later it turned out that all this is not true. Hosni Mubarak, who did not know about Karim, was indignant. The deceived prosecutor's office began checking against Berlusconi for abuse of office and the use of underage prostitutes. Italian newspapers relish: Karima was at the prime minister's party and allegedly received 7 thousand euros (and someone writes that 150 thousand) and a diamond necklace to boot (the Italian leader does not rack his brains over gifts for his women) overnight with him. The girl denies everything. Berlusconi - well, as usual.

Patricia D'Addario


A former model who, after retiring, entered the escort industry (according to her, in order to feed her little daughter). What D'Addario had with the prime minister is not known. According to the girl, the politician harassed her, but she refused him. According to Berlusconi, he did not even look at the lady of the demimonde. The police found audio recordings proving that both lied: there was sex between them. Patricia, tired of scandals, retired to London, where she is working on her autobiography, in which she threatens to tell "everything, everything, everything."

Mara Carfanya


The fate of Mara Carfagna shows: Berlusconi is a gentleman. The former Miss Italy, fashion model and actress, became Minister of the Department for Equal Opportunities in the Berlusconi government in 2008. Evil tongues claim that she took such a high post due to the fact that she once had a stormy romance with the Italian prime minister. It is known: because of her, then the Berlusconi spouses swore in 2007.

Camilla Cordeiro Carao


The name of the Italian TV presenter was associated with Berlusconi after the story that happened to a friend of Prime Minister Gianpaolo Tarantini. Togo was accused of pimping. According to the police, he brought women (top models, actresses and just prostitutes) to Berlusconi's parties, who were offered to sleep with the prime minister for money. The prices in the press appeared wholesale: a thousand euros per night with a politician. Tarantini passed all the girls. In addition to Camilla, the list included TV presenter Letizia Filippi, participant in the Italian show "Big Brother" Carolina Marconi, model Mikaela Pribisova and actress Clarissa Campironi. .

Childhood and education

One of the richest people in Italy, Silvio Berlusconi was born on September 29, 1936 in Milan. Silvio's father, Luigi Berlusconi, worked in a bank, and his mother, Rosella Bossi, was more involved in raising his son.

After graduating from a regular high school, the young Berlusconi entered the University of Milan. The father dreamed that his son would follow in his footsteps and become a banker, but Silvio chose law. Even while studying at the university, Berlusconi not only wrote scientific work in advertising, but also worked part-time at the construction company Immobiliare costruzioni. Here he gained his first experience, and after graduating from the university in 1961, he began his business life in the construction industry. He founded a small construction company Cantieri Riuniti Milanesi, and a year later another one - Edilnord. Over the course of 10 years, his companies built residential complexes in Brugherio, the Milan-2 and Milan-3 microdistricts, and the first large Podsolnukh supermarket in Italy. The construction business has been Berlusconi's main activity for 20 years.

media business

Even while studying at the university, Silvio became interested in advertising as a means of promoting a business. In the late 70s, Berlusconi realized that Italy was ready for a new commercial television. He concentrated all his energy on a new direction of work. First of all, Berlusconi acquired a stake in the popular newspaper Il Giornale. He then turned his attention to telecommunications. In 1980 he created Canale 5, which became the first national commercial television network in Italy. A few years later, two more TV channels were founded: Italia and Retequatro. Subsequently, these channels turned into a media holding "Mediaset". Not less than important point in the development of Berlusconi as a media magnate, was the creation of the company Pubitalia "80, which was engaged in the creation of informative advertising and the organization of program schedules with a selection of the most popular TV programs.

A few years later, the magazine Sorrisi e Calzoni TV was founded. It almost immediately became one of the most popular magazines in Italy, with a circulation of over 2 million. This only strengthened Berlusconi's position in the field of printed publications and became the impetus for the creation of the Mondadori publishing house, which became the leading one in Italy.

The success of Italian commercial television prompted Berlusconi to found similar commercial television channels in France (La Chinq), Germany (Telefunt) and Spain (Telechinco). All these projects were created within the Fininvest holding company, a company that brought together more than 150 companies in various fields. This included not only media projects, but also the La Stando supermarket chain, the Mediolanum bank, the Olivetti computer company, Insurance companies, investment and pension funds, and since 1986, the famous Milan football club.

"Berlusconism" was in almost all spheres of Italian life. And since the beginning of the 90s, "Fininvest holding company" has become the largest media group in Europe.

Political career of Berlusconi

After creating his "empire", Silvio Berlusconi unexpectedly decided to leave business and go into politics. Contributed to this, oddly enough, the purchase of the football club "Milan". In a few years, he managed to turn a football outsider into a successful world-class team. At the same time, the Italian magnate began to have problems with the prosecutor's office. Representatives of the law accused Berlusconi of bribing officials. Help Silvio was able to "left" Bettino Craxi. Having voted communist, the AC Milan supporters helped Craxi gain a foothold in the government. Subsequently, the politician passed laws that stopped the prosecution's investigation into Berlusconi.

After that, Silvio seriously thought about political career. In January 1994, he left his post at Fininvest holding company and created political movement. Berlusconi was not original and called his party the main slogan of the fans - "Forward, Italy" (Forza Italia).


Within 3 months, his party won the elections. In coalition with the neo-fascists and the League of the North, they won 366 seats in parliament. The victory of the young political force was facilitated by the active use information resources owned by Berlusconi. It is also important that at the same time Milan became the champion of Italy, and its owner looked like a real winner in the eyes of voters-fans.

On May 10, 1994, Silvio Berlusconi was elected Prime Minister of Italy for the first time. However, after a couple of months, he received summons from the prosecutor's office and was forced to resign. He returned to the post of prime minister twice more, in 2001 and 2008. From 2006 to 2008 Berlusconi was a member of the European Parliament.

Creative activity

Even while studying at the university, Silvio Berlusconi worked as a singer on cruise ships. Playing musical instruments and singing helped the young student pay for his studies at a prestigious university. Berlusconi released his first album of love ballads Better with a Song in 2003. Then there was another collection of songs dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the politician. And in the fourth album "Il vero amore" Berlusconi also wrote poetry.

Silvio Berlusconi's personal life

Silvio Berlusconi has been married twice. With his first wife Carla Elvira Dall "Ollo, he has been married for 20 years. Their common children - son Piersilvio and daughter Marina - work in their father's company.

Berlusconi's second wife was Veronica Lario. They had three children: daughters Barbara and Eleanor, and son Luigi. The couple divorced in 2010.


In 2011, Silvio Berlusconi was accused of using the services of underage prostitutes and organizing orgies at his villa Arcore. "It's completely absurd to think that I could pay for intimate relationship with a woman, - the politician admitted, - This has never happened in my life. I find it humiliating." At the same time, Berlusconi announced to the whole world: "Yes, I love to be among young people, I like to listen to them, I like to surround myself with young people." The court acquitted the magnate.

Berlusconi often got into trouble with the law. He has been a defendant and a witness in more than 50 court cases. But this does not prevent him from remaining one of the most influential and wealthy people not only in Italy, but throughout the world. His business is growing day by day.

Veronica Berlusconi is tired of her husband Silvio's excessive communication with young girls. 52-year-old lady decided to leave her husband.

Veronica endured her husband's adventures for a long time. Silvio Berlusconi, with the passion inherent in Italians, treated female gender. He began to test his wife's patience two years ago - then he said former actress, and in the long run to the successful politician Mare Carfagne:

If I wasn't married, I would marry you.

This angered Veronica - she demanded a public apology. Silvio obeyed and seems to have been forgiven.

However, now Senor Berlusconi made another mistake - he attended the 18th birthday of the charming blonde Noemi Letizia. He presented her with a chic gold necklace with diamonds. Perhaps Veronica would have forgiven her unlucky husband, but she was angry that Silvio did not find time to come to his own children's parties. But Noemi, affectionately calling Berlusconi "daddy", received such an honor.


Mara and Noemi

By the way, the decision to divorce followed Veronica's statement that her husband's idea to attract young girls (including TV stars) to the European Parliament is "shameless rubbish." However, out of several female "potential parliamentarians" only one, Barbara Matera, made it to Berlusconi's final list.

Another potential member of the European Parliament, actress Eleonora Gaggioli

Veronica claims that she cannot stay with a man who is into "youngsters". Mr. Berlusconi, in turn, laments the fact that his personal problems became public knowledge.

Note that the alleged passion of Silvio Berlusconi Noemi Letizia is the youngest of all his children, including three from his marriage to Veronica. The youngest of the offspring of the Italian politician is already 20 years old.

Divorces in Italy are a very lengthy process. On average, this procedure takes three to six years. Veronica, who has been married to Berlusconi for almost 30 years, will certainly be able to sue him for a substantial part of his fortune. And the capital of Senor Silvio is no less than 9 billion dollars.
