Sonia Bruganelli Reveals Past Abortion in TV Interview Promoting New Memoir

Her book-promotion interview was framed as a way to correct gossip through a first-person account.

Overview

  • Bruganelli disclosed on Rai’s Domenica In that she ended a pregnancy early in her relationship with Paolo Bonolis.
  • She stressed the choice was her own, saying “no one forced me,” after host Mara Venier remarked that Bonolis wanted the pregnancy.
  • She said she never told her father about the abortion and decided to speak now because he has died.
  • The disclosure accompanies the release of her autobiography, “Solo quello che rimane,” which she says aims to show her children and the public who she really is.
  • Reflecting on their separation, she said the years made them very different and that they are now, in her words, “a much better father and mother.”
