Chiara Nava " I took my parents' separation very hard ." Chanel Totti opens up about one of the most difficult periods of her life to tell her story on Verissimo . At 19, the daughter of Francesco Totti and Ilary Blasi recalled the months when the end of her parents' relationship became one of the most discussed topics in the media and on social media.
It was a complicated time, not only because of what was happening within the family, but also because of the enormous attention it received from outside. " They talked a lot, saying nasty things or even things that weren't true ," Chanel told Silvia Toffanin, explaining how difficult it can be to witness the spread of comments and reconstructions when you're directly involved.
“ Only we know what we experienced ,” he stressed, highlighting the gap between what the public sees and the reality experienced by the family.
Chanel Totti: "I felt watched because I was the daughter of"
Growing up with such a well-known surname meant that Chanel was exposed to particular media attention from an early age.
Being the daughter of the former Roma captain and one of the most famous presenters on Italian television made her feel observed even before she could establish her own public identity. " As a child, I felt observed because I was 'daughter of ,'" she said. It's a feeling she's learned to manage over the years, even though her family's fame inevitably continues to haunt her.
During the interview, Chanel also discussed the new family balance established after the separation. A particularly important development concerns her relationship with her mother, Ilary, who in recent years has begun a new phase of her life with Bastian Müller.
Ilary's wedding and her desire to become a mother
Chanel attended her mother's wedding to Bastian Müller in Ravello, along with her siblings Cristian and Isabel. From her words, she seemed to experience the occasion with serenity, focusing primarily on Ilary 's happiness . " If she's happy, I'm happy too. That's the most important thing; that's all I want, " she said during the interview. A phrase that paints a picture of a very close relationship between mother and daughter and of a young woman who, despite the difficulties experienced during the years of separation, today seems to care most about the well-being of the people she loves.
Her story also includes a personal desire for the future. Chanel confessed that she wants to become a mother at a young age : " I would love to become a mother at a young age ." She also envisions this project in light of the relationship she has built with her own mother. The young woman explained that she hopes to one day establish the same close bond with a potential child she feels she has with Ilary today.
