What happened to Marco Bellavia in the home of Big Brother VIP quickly became a media affair, which has been and has been talked about for weeks. The former gieffino gave an interview to the weekly Chi, in which he talks about what happened to him and explained that he did not think he could feel similar discomfort, as he had in the past, but that he is now fine and his intention was precisely talk about it: “I hope my story is an example. People keep me from talking about their pain.”
What happened to Marco Bellavia in the Chamber
However, to what happened inside the most spyed house in Italy, no one gave a real name, Marco Bellavia defined them as depressive crises, anxiety attacks, to later go into details and explain not only what he had tried in those moments, but also why he believes his roommates broke up:
They are all faces of an unease determined to end, but the initial problem is always the same: hidden fears, deficiencies, weaknesses, insecurities, wrong choices. The discomfort, whether about sexuality, about physical appearance, about self-perception, is the same. There’s no fear of saying “I’m sick”, it’s just that people don’t listen because everyone else is sick. After the Covid, the war, the atomic danger, how to keep calm? We are terrified, how many balanced people are there? As Signorini said on TV, quoting Carl Jung: “Show me a healthy individual and I will heal him for you” ». People isolate you when you can’t help them.
The first crisis several years ago
An unease that he had also experienced in the past, when he found himself having to deal with the end of an important story, in which he had invested and from which their son Filippo was born. From that moment on, Bellavia felt that her life, already radically changed by the golden years of TV, had inexorably changed. But it was the presence of his son that gave him the strength to continue:
He has been my point of reference on this journey of my life which is like a puzzle that has its own face. When I broke up with his mother, I went through a failure and asked myself questions. I said to myself, “What is my life for?” And I gave myself the answer: “Raising my child.” I did good things, I did good work that people remember. In 2007 I went back to studying and I’m doing it again, just to clear up everyone’s doubts.
TV success and history with Paola Barale
Between private life and work, however, there was never a big difference in approach: “My weakness in my work was sensitivity and I defended myself smiling and trying to keep my distance, I trimmed behind this wall to hide my weaknesses”, until the need to assert herself arose, from which Bellavia never backed down, at the cost of bringing out the darkest part of herself: “But then, when I felt penalized or marginalized, I reacted aggressively. At Mediaset, at the time, I fought with everyone, even with the managers: we played football together and sometimes we played during matches”. The years of work at Mediaset, however, as he tells the magazine, were profitable, given the success of his presence on TV:
In those years it was impossible for me not to be upset. I made disasters. Before she loved me, Licia didn’t know me, after I had 500 little girls under the house. We were famous like Eros Ramazzotti, like Gianni Morandi. With the Bee Hive (musical group of the show, ed.) we filled the halls. I went to the Spandau Ballet show, and when some girls recognized me, there was a roar: the police had to intervene to get me to safety, everything happened.
Success and also working in the same company led him to meet Paola Barale, with whom a beautiful love story was born: “She worked on The Wheel of Fortune, I worked on Bim bum bam. We were beautiful. After three years it was over because we were young, we had to have our experiences. They said she left me because she became more famous than me, but she wasn’t. We were supposed to get married too, I gave her a ring and she gave me a Harley-Davidson. Then she married Gianni Sperti.”
