She Started out as a Model

Melissa Satta was only 16 when she entered the fashion industry in 2002 and was initially represented by the Venus Goddess agency. The agency helped her in getting a spot in the 2003 edition of the popular Italian beauty contest, “Miss Muretto”, in which she finished second to earn the title of “Miss Extreme”. After the event, she settled in Milan full-time. At 19, she signed a contract with the Riccardo Gay agency and was subsequently appointed as spokesperson for the TIM advertisement group.

In June that year, she appeared on the cover of the Maxim magazine. In 2011, she did commercials for Nike and provided testimonials for the luxury fashion and jewelry brand Nicole.

She Gained Success as a Television Presenter

Melissa Satta debuted on television in 2005, appearing as a ballerina on the Italian program Mio fratello e pakistano on Canale 5. Later that year, she appeared as a showgirl for the racy series Striascia la notzia and quickly captivated Italian television viewers. In 2007, she had a couple cameo appearances on the TV miniseries Judge Mastrangelo 2 and the film Bastardi. Also that year, she featured in the last part of MTV Italy’s Total Request Live and worked as a presenter on Fashion TV and The White Party Fashion TV satellite channel. She was the co-presenter of the Italian quiz-show First and last in 2008. The following year, she became the female face of the Italian talk show Controcampo on Rete 4 and served as a television presenter for Victoria’s Secret.

She Has Dated Several Celebrities

Melissa Satta has been involved in several high-profile relationships ever since she entered the entertainment industry. She dated Italian television personality Daniele Interrante from 2003 to 2006, about which she opened up in an interview mentioning she was “a little girl of just eighteen” and that she wonders why she was with him at all. Interrante responded to her comments saying it was “incorrect and shameful”. Next, she was in a long-term relationship with Italian footballer Christian Vieri from 2006 to 2011, which ended because of his alleged infidelity with Sara Tommasi.

She was briefly engaged to 45-year-old Italian businessman Gianluca Vacchi in late 2011, during which period she was spotted spending a night with late American basketball player Kobe Bryant, reportedly prompting his wife to file for divorce. In November that year, she began dating German footballer Kevin-Prince Boateng, with whom she welcomed son Maddox Prince in April 2014, before finally getting married in June 2016. Despite getting back together following months of separation in 2019, they eventually announced their divorce in December 2020. Incidentally, Melissa later regretted suggesting that Boateng’s frequent injury during his time with AC Milan was due to their very active sex life. Recently in July 2021, she was spotted vacationing with young Italian entrepreneur Mattia Rivetti.
