The phrase "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" has never felt more fitting than in Italy today, where a political scandal is unfolding. The former mistress of Gennaro Sangiuliano, the country's Minister of Culture, has revealed that she secretly recorded their private encounters using a hidden camera.
Sangiuliano, 62, publicly confessed to having an affair with Maria Rosaria Boccia, a 41-year-old fashion influencer and economist. The affair reportedly began in May this year after the two met at a party in Naples. Their relationship, however, ended abruptly between late July and early August, leaving a trail of controversy in its wake.
