A really crazy background on the life of Al Bano and Romina Power, the two historical singers, revealed by one of their daughters
One of the historical couples of entertainment and Italian music is certainly that composed by Al Bano Carrisi and Romina Power. The two ex-spouses, still on excellent terms today, are still part of the collective imagination.

Today we came back to talk about Al Bano and Romina during the episode of Today is Another Day, Rai’s afternoon container directed by Serena Bortone. Among the “stable affections” of the program, Romina Carrisi, one of the couple’s daughters, often appears.
The young singer commented on an unpleasant event today, namely the disappearance of Franco Gatti dei Ricchi e Poveri. Bad news for Italian music, with farewell to a man who lived a successful but also very dramatic life intimately.
Romina Carrisi and the comparison between Franco Gatti and his parents: the common loss of a child
Indeed, Franco Gatti prematurely lost his son, Alessio, who was only 23 years old, a few years ago. It seems that a mixture of heroin and alcohol was fatal to him during an evening of absolute excess.
Romina Carrisi could not fail to compare the tragedy that has accompanied Franco so far with that of her family. It is the disappearance of her older sister Ylenia, who literally disappeared in the United States in 1993. Romina Carrisi (web source)
A mystery that tore the souls of Al Bano and Romina Power; his daughter Romina junior wanted to explain the couple’s attitude to tragedy and pain: “I know what it means to lose a sister and, putting myself in my parents’ shoes, I know what it means to lose a kid. It’s against nature because it’s against nature because it should be the opposite, and I know the strength my parents still have every day today after 30 years, they put on armor, put on a smile to Continue. Not everyone can find that strength.”
A strong pain that told by Romina Carrisi, who has always seen her parents react with energy and with a serene facade. But both hide well the absurd loss of a daughter, still unexplained today.
