Today (in 2022) that he is 85 and she is 67, they can celebrate a love that has been stable for 43 years. And who has withstood all the pressures of the case: celebrity, admiration, her great beauty and youth, her business trips and even her gradual withdrawal into the mother-housewife dimension. Johnny Dorelli and Gloria Guida talk about their union in an interview with Corriere della Sera.
It starts from the first meeting at the theater, when he was dazzled by her: “She was dressed only in strings of pearls”. Then comes the most beautiful phrase of her: “You have become a revelation, an extraordinary woman”. What kept them together? Thus Dorelli: “In moments of difficulty we have always remained united, talking, clarifying each other”. The exciting moment in the birth of their daughter Guendalina. So the Guide: “Wonderful, there was a fainting and it wasn’t mine, it was him.”
He was twenty years older and two children from previous relationships. But for Gloria Guida it was a challenge won quickly: “The children were nice to me”. Betrayals? She replies: “I thought it, at times, as I think he thought it of me. The secret of a long-lived love is” to have respect for one another, to avoid betraying each other. ”
She was the erotic dream of the Italians: “I do not deny the films made, I would have gladly avoided a few showers”. Dorelli confided that he feared her return to the set for fear of being neglected: “But I was so in love that first he was there and then I came”. And Dorelli, so more mature, how did he experience the closeness of such a beautiful and admired woman? “I was jealous but out of pride of her I never admitted it.”
