Fabrizio Corona (50 years), the controversial Italian paparazzi has monopolized the headlines of the pink press in recent days. Known for unveiling secrets that many would prefer to keep hidden, have recently shaken their country with its revelations about the marriage of Chiara Ferragni (37 years) and Fedez (35 years), two of the most beloved and influential figures in Italy. However, this is not the first scandal that stars in the so -called ‘King of Paparazzi’, whose personal and professional life is marked by controversy, blackmail and their innate ability to remain in the controversies.
Born in Catania, Sicily, Fabrizio grew up to a family linked to the world of communication. His father, Vittorio Corona, was a renowned journalist, co-founder of ‘La Voce’, a liberal newspaper that formed numerous research journalists. For this reason, after his move to Milan, the photographer decided to follow in the footsteps of his father, but from another totally different approach: in 2001, he founded his own photographic agency, specialized in Pillar to celebrities in compromising situations.
However, throughout his career he has had to face Italian justice on multiple occasions, since beyond selling photographs to different magazines, he discovered that blackmail was more lucrative. This led him to receive extortion sentences to figures such as the footballer David Trezeguet and the Marco Melandri motorcyclist. However, despite its legal problems, Fabrizio has managed to reinvent himself as a media figure with his YouTube ‘Merysissimo’ program, where to address various issues from the entertainment world, including the scandal between Chiara Ferragni and Fedez.
As revealed by the ‘King of the Paparazzi’, the relationship between the two was very far from being the idyllic marriage they showed on social networks. “Everything that shone was not gold,” and revealed that Fedez had a lover for six years: Angelica Montini, fashion businesswoman and daughter of a multimillion -dollar couple. Fabrizio’s statements arrive just a year after the couple decided to separate their paths.
Corona, who declares himself friend of Fedez, also assured that when Montini broke his relationship with the rapper shortly before the Sanremo Festival, he tried to commit suicide. Given what happened, Chiara broke his silence with a statement published on his social networks, where he confirmed the infidelity of his ex -husband. «I said nothing when I was abandoned overnight in my first difficult last February, when it cost me even get out of bed. I have heard many times that I had thrown him out of the house, but he had never thrown him out after discovering an infidelity just in those days (only one of many, obviously), ”he wrote the ‘It girl’ and added that,” I didn’t say Not even publicly when, a few days before Christmas of 2024, Federico [Fedez] He called me and admitted for the first time with this lover, who had begun in 2017. He also told me that, a few days before the wedding, he had thought about not getting married, but did not know how to put himself back publicly.
Other scandals revealed by Fabrizio
The case of the ‘Ferragnez’ is not the only one that Corona has brought to light. In 2023, the photographer was linked to the illegal betting scandal that shook Italian football. According to his own statements, it was he who revealed the names of Sandro Tonali and Nicolò Zaniolo, two midfielders of the Italian team investigated for their participation in an illegal betting network. At the time, the paparazzi claimed to have evidence and documents that supported his statements.
However, their threats are not limited to the world of bets. In an even more controversial turn, Fabrizio hinted that he would also reveal the identity of homosexual soccer players. “We will soon talk about homosexual players and the reasons that prevent them from leaving the closet,” he said at the time, unleashing an intense debate about homophobia in sport and pressure facing athletes to maintain their private life in secret.
Your personal life
His life has been marked by ups and downs. In an interview with ‘Chi’, following his 50th birthday, Fabrizio talked openly about the two greatest pains of his life: the death of his father in 2007 and the mental health problems of his son Carlos María, the fruit of his marriage With the Croatian Nina Moric model.
However, the last years, Corona has found a new illusion with the young model Sara Barbieri, with whom she has formed a family made up of Thiago, her first child in common.
Undoubtedly, Fabrizio is a character loved by some, for his ability to reveal secrets, and hated by others, for his questionable methods to reveal a truth. The truth is that its influence in the world of Italian show is undeniable.
