If they come together successfully and get married will Marm have a median age of 38 or 39?  You do the math!!  We at Mondo Italiano think they are a match made in heaven!

Comunicato Stampa e Oggi:

I giornali specializzati in gossip l’avevano già annunciato da mesi, ma tre giorni fa sul suo profilo Instagram Raffaella Modugno, 29enne bella ed affascinante modella di origini bitontine, scrive al suo amore Marc Anthony: “So proud to be with amazing man like you with an incredibile heart! Love you amore mio!”.

Il cantante di musica latina più ambito di Hollywood, collega della Lopez, padre dei suoi gemelli Maximilian e Emme, si è innamorato della modella testimonial di importanti marchi come Dolce&Gabbana, Prada e posatrice per sexy calendari come For Men Magazine.  La nostra concittadina ha partecipato a Pechino Express 5 (ed. 2016) e anche a Miss Italia 2011.

La foto che vi mostriamo, postata da Marc su Instagram, ha scatenato la gelosia della Lopez che, pur essendo fidanzata, non ha mai dimenticato l’ex marito.

Al settimanale “Oggi”, la showgirl Raffaella Modugno ha confermato la liaison ma per maggiori dettagli, ancora bocche cucite: “Sì. Siamo fidanzati. Non posso raccontare nulla. Siamo solo agli inizi della nostra storia e ci stiamo conoscendo”.

Anthony a 49 anni ha collezionato già tre divorzi dalla Lopez, da Dayanara Torres e da Shannon De Lima: speriamo che questa sia la volta buona.

Al momento Raffaella si trova in America non solo per affari di cuore: “Sto dedicando molto tempo a studiare recitazione. Il mio obiettivo è prepararmi al meglio, per realizzare il mio sogno: vorrei fare l’attrice. Ultimamente ho avuto la fortuna di fare diversi casting importanti, con registi di fama mondiale”.

Che questa sia per lei l’occasione di sfondare oltre oceano e accasarsi anche sentimentalmente? In tal caso, la nostra concittadina avrebbe davvero trovato l’America…
