Italy’s Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, has ended her relationship with her partner due to a series of controversies surrounding his sexist remarks on television and other related incidents.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced her separation from her partner, Andrea Giambruno, on Friday. This decision came in the wake of criticism directed at Giambruno for his sexist comments. Meloni and Giambruno, a television journalist, had been in a relationship for ten years and share a seven-year-old daughter.
Giambruno found himself in controversy due to his comments during a satirical current affairs television show. His comments and inappropriate behavior on camera led to public backlash.
Meloni made the separation announcement on her social media accounts, stating, “My relationship with Andrea Giambruno, which lasted almost 10 years, ends here. Our paths have diverged for some time, and the time has come to acknowledge it.”

This development comes as the 46-year-old prime minister marks her first year in office, leading a right-wing coalition government. She emphasized that she wouldn’t be distracted by challenges in her private life, asserting, “All those who hoped to weaken me by striking me at home will have no success.”
In the past month, Meloni clarified that she should not be judged for Giambruno’s remarks and declared her intent not to address questions about his behavior in the future.
The couple first met in a TV studio in 2014. Giambruno, aged 42, serves as the presenter of a news program broadcast by Mediaset, which is part of the MFE media group owned by the heirs of the late Silvio Berlusconi, a former prime minister and a political ally of Meloni.
Video excerpts from one of Giambruno’s programs showed him using offensive language, engaging in inappropriate behavior, and making advances toward a female colleague. In one instance, he asked her, “Why didn’t I meet you before?”
This was not the first instance of Giambruno making inappropriate remarks, as another audio recording revealed him discussing an affair and suggesting to female colleagues that they could continue working with him if they participated in group sex.
