I am so chuffed, I just adored Oriana.

She was such a gutsy woman, brilliant and gorgeous to boot.

I just love hearing about how she would catch some of the world's most famous men right off guard while she interviewed them, hehe. Her life inspires me in many ways, and I am very happy she is being remembered by her country in this way

Bravo Italy!
