Elisabetta Canalis Talks About Life as a Single Woman
Listen to the story
Italian actress and TV personality Elisabetta Canalis has described herself as an eternal single woman in a new interview.
Canalis spoke about the end of her marriage. She and her husband were together for 10 years. She said they had made an honest decision to live separately, even though they still care for each other.
The star also addressed rumours about her friendship with fellow TV personality Maddalena Corvaglia. Some reports had suggested the friendship had ended badly.
Canalis strongly denied these claims. She said nothing negative had actually happened between her and Corvaglia, and she wanted to share the truth about the situation.
According to Canalis, she and her husband simply looked at each other honestly after ten years together and decided that separation was the right choice.
She did not give many further details about the reasons behind the split, keeping most of the private situation to herself.
The interview has drawn attention because Canalis is a well-known figure in Italian entertainment, and her relationships often attract public interest.
Neither Canalis nor Corvaglia has given a detailed public explanation of what exactly caused speculation about their friendship, but Canalis insists the reports were exaggerated.
