subject: The Gucci Family Feud For Money (3) [print this page] Maurizio Gucciwas the rare model young man in his family before he was 22 years old. He would become the third heir if he had not meet Patrizia, a tiny but always willing to shine a smile. Patrizia had been educated by her mother to marry a rich guy since she was a small kid. She had a dictum that I would rather cry in a Rolls-Royce than smile on a bicycle.
At that time, his father opposed strongly against his love towards Patrizia and threatened him by depriving his inherence right. However, he was a headstrong young man. He left home and turned to his girlfriend. Patrizias stepfather took it for granted that Maurizios father would forgive Maurizio, thus he decided to marry his daughter and Maurizio.
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 Patrizias 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.
