In the Tuesday 10 December episode of Beaststhe talk show hosted by Francesca Fagnani, was a guest Elena Sofia Ricci. During the interview, the actress returned to talking about one of the worst episodes of her life: “It was so bad, so painful. A sense of guilt also arises because you don’t understand what’s happening, you’re in the middle of puberty. We were in a car and I had a drawing pad on my lap. I was trying to protect myself with that paper. Clearly can a drawing pad protect? No”.
That man was a friend of his family. But the actress never told what had happened to her mother: “It’s a knot that I haven’t untied it yet. I didn’t tell my mom because I didn’t want to hurt her. I heard that there was something dirty. The problem is that this dirty thing has remained all my life. So for me the male one – which I don’t trust so much – is a problem. Between abandonment and mistreatment I feel that the masculine owes me something.”
Elena Sofia Ricci also spoke about her problems with alcohol: “I had many alcoholics in my family” and “drinking a lot was quite normal, so when I was a girl and I wanted to tone myself down I sometimes overindulged a little. I didn’t know how to dose at all“.
Then, out of the blue, he realized that the time had come to put an end to that addiction. “One morning – the actress recalled – in front of a mirror I saw a gray thing. It was me. I said: my God, I’m transforming in what I don’t like about my family of origin.”
