Beatrice Borromeo

Beatrice dei Principi Borromeo Arese Taverna (born 18 August 1985) is an Italian journalist and model.

Through her father she is related to Carlo Borromeo (1538–1584), who became a cardinal of the Catholic Church, Archbishop of Milan, and a canonized saint.

The family currently owns most of the Borromean Islands in the Lago Maggiore, Milan city, and many other estates in the Lombardy and Piedmont countrysides.

[3] She also interviewed American author of LA Confidential James Ellroy[18] and former candidate for Colombia's presidency Ingrid Betancourt both for Il Fatto Quotidiano.

Her first article for Il Fatto Quotidiano, published on 14 September 2009, was about Vito De Filippo, then-president of the Italian region of Basilicata, allocating European funds for the Miss Italia contest.

She has directed several documentaries in the Italian language, ranging from topics such as the women of 'Ndrangheta, selfie surgery, and the children of Caivano.

[3] Borromeo broke the story of the video confession of Vittorio Emanuele,[24] who subsequently sued the newspaper for defamation.

("Winning a case is always nice, but against Victor Emmanuel of Savoy the pleasure is double"),[26] which resulted in spat on social media with his son Emanuele Filiberto.

[29] Since 2008, Borromeo became increasingly known in the tabloid press as the girlfriend of Pierre Casiraghi, the younger son of Caroline, Princess of Hanover.

The religious ceremony took place on 1 August 2015 on Isola Bella, one of the Borromean Islands on Lake Maggiore, Italy.
