    ‘SHE’S CANDID LIKE A CHILD, BUT ALSO SHREWD LIKE A FOX’

    PLAYBOY bunny, bestselling author, actress, wife of a corrupt American politician – her life certainly can’t be describe as boring.

    But about two decades ago she put all this behind her when she was swept off her feet by an Italian prince and later became Princess Rita Boncompagni Ludovisi.

    Marrying Nicolò Boncompagni Ludovisi opened many doors for her – including those to a magnificent villa which is now at the heart of a bitter inheritance battle.

    Nicolò died in 2018 aged 77 and Rita (72) has been at war with his sons over the awe-inspiring Ludovisi residence in Rome ever since.
