Antonella Clerici Eddy Martens – iFood.it
Eddy Martens was not only Antonella Clerici's life partner, but also one of the authors of the festival, which she hosted herself. She herself confirmed it.
Eddy Martens was not only Antonella Clerici's life partner, but also a person who contributed with his own ideas to the creation of the most visited singing festival in Italy, the Sanremo Festival.
In the year in which his partner was in the moderator role, 2010, he helped her himself and, according to Antonella Clerici herself, made the event capable of bringing younger people together with his own ideas. It seems that the idea of having Bob Sinclar travel to Sanremo as a guest, for example, came from him.
The moderator’s own words confirm this: “He gave me ideas that served to bring the children closer together, such as recording Bob Sinclar.”
Nevertheless, Eddy Martens continued to come under criticism. They considered him a profit because he had become the partner of a very famous but also older woman. Nevertheless, Antonella Clerici herself tried to defend him at the time and confirmed the authenticity of their love.
Despite the help, overwhelmed by criticism
Also due to the fact that Eddy Martens was one of the authors of the Sanremo Festival, the press criticized the matter so heavily that Antonella Clerici herself was saddened by it. This is confirmed by his words reported on the Spettacolo fan page and which come from an interview with Il Giornale.
“I just want to pay tribute to his achievements, he had to stay in the second row because he was targeted by journalists.“His words were bitter, which also showed some disappointment in the situation. The second time they were even more bitter.

Some bitter words about the situation
With these words, reported on the Spettacolo fan page, Antonella Clerici had commented on the attitude of those who viewed the love between her and Eddy Martens with skepticism.
These were his words: “This is a bigoted and chauvinistic country: the big guy dating the twenty year old is normal. […] Eddy has suffered a lot, he feels judged, and yet despite the flaws he has because he is not perfect, he is a very intelligent boy who wants to go his own way. The prejudices came mainly from the upper class. The simple people are much more good-natured, they understand: they have a beautiful love story, they also have a little girl, they are happy, then it ends, whatever, I had a man who was 17 years older than me, it ended anyway“.
