subject: The Gucci Family Feud for Money (3) [print this page] As might have been expected, two years later, the two reached reconciliation. Under the help of Patrizia, the Gucci family had sent the couple several houses, including a department in the golden area in Manhattan. However, their marriage turned out to be not so successful. To the year of 1985, when their older was 9 years old and little daughter 5 years old, Maurizio could not bear Patrizia's strong controlling instinct and wanted a divorce. The tough Patrizia certainly did not agree to divorce. She believed that she had contributed all her attention to him and would rather die than get divorced. In 1995, Maurizio at last succeeded in divorcing after spending ten years and millions of money on the filing. Patrizia got so angry that she hired a young man to kill her ex-husband. She ended her life after 29 years in prison.
