Overview

• Veronica Gentili crowned Cristina Plevani as the champion of the 19th edition of L’Isola dei Famosi in a live broadcast on July 2.
• A series of rapid-fire televotes during the finale eliminated finalists one by one until Plevani outlasted runner-up Mario Adinolfi and third-place Jey Lillo.
• Plevani first captured Italian viewers’ attention by winning the inaugural Grande Fratello in 2000 and returned to claim a second reality title a quarter-century later.
• The grand finale secured an 18.4% audience share on Canale 5 and was also available for streaming on Mediaset Infinity.
• Following the season close, Canale 5 will debut Temptation Island next week, filling the reality TV slot vacated by L’Isola dei Famosi.
