A splendid bond, the one that Barbara Boncompagni made with the unforgettable Raffaella Carra: for her it was just like a mother. And the disappearance of the great artist deeply saddened her. Here is who the daughter of Gianni Boncompagni is. Who is Barbara Boncompagni
Barbara Boncompagni was born in Sweden on April 26, 1963. She is the daughter of Gianni and a Swedish nobleman named Margaret, who arrived in Rome when she was just one year old with her father and her two older sisters. She, a super busy and very intellectual woman, did not find herself very well in Italy. Perhaps for this reason the couple chose the path of divorce, in 1964, and Barbara grew up with only paternal reference, who had obtained exclusive custodyand the fatherland of the three daughters.
Following in the footsteps of the pope , Boncompagni made her debut in 1980 writing the theme song for Drim, the show hosted by Gianni. The song – Con I Piedi All’Insu – was also transformed into a single. Subsequently, she participated in the Sanremo Festival in Notte e Giorno but she was also the vocalist and author of her Non e la Rai , a cult program created by her father. In more recent years she has also signed La Posta del Cuore on Rai1, Paint Your Life on Real Time and the recent Secret Song with Serena Rossi.
As for her privacy, Barbara has always been very private. We know that she has been married for several years and that she is the mother of two children, Mattia and Brando. However, there was another very important person in her life. We are talking about Raffaella Carra, who for a long time was Gianni’s partner and, for her daughters, just like a mother. So much so that her disappearance deeply grieved Barbara. Barbara Boncompagni, the bond with Raffaella Carra
La Carra had two great loves: Sergio Japino and Gianni Boncompagni, who passed away in 2017. At her behest, Raffaella did not want to have children to give space to her career. At a more mature age, she had decided to try to become a mother but her nature was not kind, preventing her from conceiving a child. She therefore dedicated herself to long distance adoptions, an initiative that she felt very deeply.
When Raffaella Carra and Gianni Boncompagni decided to live together, Barbara was only 5 years old . But she remembers that moment well, as she told Corriere: “I remember her as Mary Poppins, Inside the house a cyclone. Papa was a man who lives alone with three daughters and you can imagine in what state he found the Raffaella house when she came to live with us. I was the youngest and for all of us she was like a mother. We also had in common the fact that as a child she had been abandoned by her father, we by her mother ”.
There are many things in common between Barbara and Raffaella, but there is one in particular that she has indissolubly united them. La Carra, in fact, had been abandoned by her father, while Boncompagni’s daughter had to do without her mother. This painmade them similar, so much so that Barbara is considered almost a goddaughter of Raffaella. The artist has been close to her even after the end of her love with her father , even in the professional field, with several tips to improve her television programs.
