Forden. Little Book of Guccie, The Story of 87 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: the iconic fashion House by Karen Homer. In the Name 88 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: of Guccie, a memoir by Patricia Gucci, The Guccie Wife 89 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: and The hit Man, Fashion's Darkest Tale by Abigail Haveorth. 90 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: And of course we have articles from The Guardian, The 91 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: Times and the Telegraph. So are you ready? Let's begin. 92 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: So part of me really wanted to talk about this 93 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: story for a couple of reasons, you know, because I 94 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: love many things in this world, including very important parts 95 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: of this story which involve true crime, empowered women, and 96 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: many words that I will struggle to pronounce. So any 97 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: excuse to try saying things in an Italian accent and 98 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: failing that sertably. And I'm fairly certain I only know 99 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: two words in Italian, the first of which to be 100 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: in bon journal, which is hello, and the other one 101 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: being frankle bali, which is a stamp, like a postage stamp. 102 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: And you're thinking, Katie, why are the only two words 103 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: you know hello and postage stamp? First of all, you 104 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: learn hello in most languages briviot, ja, ditch, et cetera, 105 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: et cetera. And the reason I know francle bally that 106 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: means postage stamp is because I used to work in 107 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: a souvenir store in Amsterdam and I had two very 108 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: confused Italian tourists who could only speak Italian, and it 109 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: took me and another girl, honestly, about eight minutes to 110 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: figure out what they were trying to tell us, because 111 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: she was German, I was this, and neither one of 112 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: us spoke Italian, and the Italians did not speak English 113 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: or German, or Irish or French. But we got there 114 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: in the end after a game of charades, and that's 115 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: the important thing. So let's start from the beginning, shall we. 116 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: The Gucci family have vehemently stated their roots are deeply 117 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: entwined in that of the city of Florence, Italy, from 118 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: like before the Renaissance, So we are talking fourteen ten. 119 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: This is pre but the creation of the dynasty actually 120 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: starts in eighteen ninety seven, when oh, I'm gonna have 121 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: so much fun with his name. Guccio Gio vanm Bardista Giacinto, 122 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: Dario Maria Goggi, I think I've got that right, otherwise 123 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: known as Guccio Gucci, that's right. He leaves Florence, stops 124 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: off in Paris for a bit and then ends up 125 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: in London where he's working at the Savoy Hotel, and 126 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: he's a wee bell hop being the person who lugs 127 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 1: around everyone's luggage. He keeps his eyes and ears open. 128 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: He's paying attention to fashion and fabrics and and travel 129 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: and like upscale travel. Because after that he ends up 130 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: with a compagny wag on the basically a rail company 131 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: in Europe, which is just like travel for the rich folk, 132 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. After World War One, he 133 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: ends up working for the luggage maker Frenzy. By nineteen 134 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: twenty one, Guccio Gucci buys his own shop on seven 135 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: Via der Ravinia and Lueva in Florence at the end 136 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: Indvidi Gotiogucci, and he basically sells imported leather luggage, but 137 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: not content onjust like selling imported goods. He opens up 138 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: a wee workshop in the back and he gets local 139 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 1: craftsman to make his own leather goods, and like he 140 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: is killing it in the leather crafting business because he's 141 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: got sixty artisans who at this point cannot fit in 142 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: the back workshop and he has to expand and move 143 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: into a bigger workshop. Unfortunately for Guccio Gucci, Mussolini the 144 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: arsehole decides to invade Ethiopia, thus resulting in a trading 145 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: bargo with Italy. Basically, there's not a lot of leather 146 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: going around. He's got to think outside the box. They're 147 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: basically using everything they can get their hands on, wicker wood, raffia, linen, jute, 148 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: even jute. You know what jude is. It is the 149 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: stuff that sacks are made off potato sacks. You know 150 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: when they say you look good in a potato sack. 151 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: If Guccio Gucci was involved apparently so by nineteen thirty seven, 152 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: Guccio launches handbags. Gucci was very much a family business, 153 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: as most businesses were back in the day, so Guccio 154 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: had his wife and all his kids working in the shop, 155 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: and his son Aldo by nineteen thirty eight, convinces Gucchio 156 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,599 Speaker 1: to like open up another shop in Rome and to 157 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: start making like more Gucci accessories, so like gloves, belts, kichins, wallets, YadA, YadA, YadA, 158 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: but like during World War Two, they were creating less 159 00:09:54,840 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: luxury items and we're actually making boots for the Italian infantry. Yeah, 160 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how I feel about that, but all right. 161 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: So after the war and Guccio Gucci's like, I'm done, 162 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: I've made my money.

The next exciting member in this story is 198 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: Marizio Gucci. Marizio Gucci. He was born in Florence on 199 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: the twenty sixth of September nineteen forty eight, and he's 200 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: the only son of Rodolfo Gucci and Sandra ravel So. 201 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: Rodolfo and Sandra, they were both actors in the movie 202 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: Biz Like. His parents actually met on the set of 203 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: a movie together in the Dark. Marizio he's the only 204 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 1: son of these two, and his mother dies when he's 205 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: five years old from uterine cancer, and his dad becomes 206 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: incredibly protective of him. So in nineteen seventy there's a 207 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: high society party in Milan and Maritzio and Patricia their 208 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: eyes luck across. I don't know a dance floor, I 209 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: don't know some more devs hymns to say, but they 210 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: see each other and they're like, damn, Marizzio, he's you know, 211 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 1: he's from Florence. He doesn't really know anybody. He's kind 212 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: of shy again because his dad was so overprotective of him. 213 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: And unlike the you know, the typical socialites of the time, 214 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: Patricia was strong, world exciting, you know, not the wilting 215 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,719 Speaker 1: wallflower or like the trophy wife so she's you know, 216 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: she's got a good few suitors. People are really interested 217 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,599 Speaker 1: in her. At this point, Maurrizzio he sees her and 218 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 1: he's like, she looks like Elizabeth Taylor. Who is she? 219 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: I need to know her? So he chases her and 220 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: they start saying each other. When they're both like twenty 221 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: four ish, they get married in nineteen seventy two. Here's 222 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: the thing, Rodolpho, he wasn't super happy about this union, 223 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: shall we say. He was quoted as saying that Petrizio 224 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: was a social climber who has nothing in mind but money. Effectively, 225 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: he was calling her a gold digger. Yeah, and but 226 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: that doesn't stop him from gifting his son and daughter 227 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: in law a luxury penthouse in New York's Olympic Tower. 228 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: So when they move to New York, they are the 229 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: it crowd. They are mingling with the who's who of 230 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: New York society. The celebrities of the time, I mean 231 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: themselves were probably seen as the celebrities of the time. 232 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: Marizzio had always felt kind of confined by the overprotectingness 233 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: of his father and his constrictive upbringing and the rules 234 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: of who he was supposed to be is part of, 235 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: you know, the Gucci hierarchy. And when he meets and 236 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: marries and lives with Patricia, he's free, like he gets 237 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: to live his life and be himself. Rodolfo, he does 238 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: sort of meil about a wee bit when Maurizio and 239 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: Patricia's first daughter is born, Alessandra, and he ends up 240 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: buying the couple like a bunch of properties here and 241 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: there and everywhere, and they really were living their best lives. 242 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: When their next kid is brought a liegra, Marizzio buys 243 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: a sixty four meter wood yacht called the Creole, which 244 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: they would use to travel to private islands. So not 245 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: only did they have the Pennhouse. 246 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 2: In New York, they had private islands, a holiday home 247 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 2: in al Capulco, a farm in Connecticut, and Ascacie in 248 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: Saint Maurits like what And you know, as far as 249 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 2: they're concerned, everything's. 250 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: Coming up melhouse. And while he is doing whatever, he's 251 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: hanging about in their Chaufford car, sailing their bow or 252 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: being involved in business stuff. But more importantly than you know, 253 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: their relationship, Patrizia becomes the advisor from Marizio. She was 254 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: basically his business advisor. When push came to shove, like 255 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: she was the brains behind the operation. She was the 256 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: one keeping at a fault. She was the run trying 257 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: to rejuvenate and regenerate and keep Gucci at the forefront. 258 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: But then the shit hits the fan. Uh. In nineteen 259 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: eighty three, Ridolfo dies and Marizzio he inherits his father's 260 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: majority staking Gucci. He's kept fifty percent. And basically Marizzio 261 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: was mad that Gucci wasn't the high level prestige brand 262 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: it once was, you know, because it was mass producing 263 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: this and over licen, saying that he wanted to go 264 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: back to the exquisite craftsmanship the come he was built upon. Cool, 265 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: but you'll make less money that way, but all right, 266 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: And because he wanted everything to be the best of 267 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: the best, he was micro managing and mismanaging. He wasn't 268 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: listening to Patricia anymore. And he was constantly fearing with 269 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: his uncle and his cousins, who basically jointly owned the 270 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: other half. So he's fighting them for years, years and years. 271 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: So not only that, he's actually spending a fuck ton 272 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: of money, like redoing sort of the Gucci offices in 273 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: Milan and New York. He's just he's hemorrhaging money. So Patricia, 274 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: she was his right hand man effectively, so she helped 275 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: him for a takeover of the Gucci fashion house. And 276 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: so while he's fighting with his uncle and his cousins, 277 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: he's actually assisted at one point, right, Rudy Giuliani. That's right, 278 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 1: the same guy who was helping Trump, that motherfucker. Anyway, 279 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: So by the mid eighties, you know, things are going bad. 280 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: He manages to buy out, you know, the rest of 281 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: the Gucci fam with the help of an investment group 282 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: called Investcorp, which is Roon Seal Diamond Coat does exactly 283 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: what it says in the tin, but effectively their marriage 284 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: just disintegrates. And one night he leaves to go on 285 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: a business trip. I heard, okay, so it was either 286 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four or nineteen eighty five. I have looked 287 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 1: this up many, many times, and everywhere I look it's 288 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: a different date. It is either eighty four or eighty five. 289 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: It is one of those, which one I have no 290 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: fucking clue, but that's what it is. So Maritzio, he 291 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: packs an overnight bag and he gets the fuck at 292 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: a dodge and the next day Maritzio gets one of 293 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: his friends to go visit Patricia and inform her that 294 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 1: he was leaving her for another woman and their marriage 295 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: was over. No, not cool, so without Patricia's guidance, But 296 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: you know, when it came to the business, Patrici, I 297 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: was right, Marizzio. He just wasn't making enough money to 298 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: pay for the stuff he wanted to do, and even 299 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: his personal fortune was was slowly but surely being eviscerated, 300 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: which forced his hand, meaning that he had to sell 301 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: Gucci to Invest Corp. For one hundred and twenty million 302 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: dollars in ninety three. I think it was at some 303 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: point during this Marizio he divorces Patricia, and initially his 304 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: lawyers offer her a two and a half million dollar 305 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: divorce settlement with an additional six hundred and fifty thousand 306 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: you know, sort of spousal support thing. Per Anam, she 307 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: called the divorce settlement a mirror bowl of lentils. So 308 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: Marizzio he's moved in with the blonde Paola franc and 309 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: they're planning on getting married. Patricia is like, fuck this 310 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: for a game of soldiers and decides to do something 311 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: about it because she's wor that you know, Paula and 312 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: Marizio are going to get married, and they're gonna have kids, 313 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 1: which would then disinherit her daughters, and it'll be your 314 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: whole fucking thing. And also, she really didn't want another 315 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: person to be the next Missus Marizio Gucci because as 316 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: far as she was concerned, that was her fucking title. 317 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: She earned it and she was keeping it. She had 318 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: grown accustomed to a certain way of living and she 319 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: was not going to descend from that. And this is 320 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: where things get weird. So Patricia is the brain. There 321 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: is a braun involved in this, but there's also an 322 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: astrologer slash psychic. Sometimes you hear a story and you're like, no, no, 323 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 1: this is definitely made up. But no, there's a fucking psychic. 324 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: Marizzio and Patricia both had personal psychics, which they used 325 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: to have a battle of psychics, like they were trying 326 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: to get the juju of each other or something. I don't, 327 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: I don't what. Rich people are really fucking weird. It's 328 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: all I'm saying. Once you get money, it makes you 329 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: do lally, which makes me really comfortable because if I 330 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,719 Speaker 1: ever get rich, I am just gonna I'm gonna walk 331 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: around like Bjork. I'm gonna be like such a weirdo, 332 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 1: but you know, a socially acceptably weirdo and eccentric, some 333 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: might say. But anyway, So Paula Franchie, she is like 334 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: freaking the fuck out because she is convinced that that 335 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: Patricia is spying on them, Like because Patricia somehow knows 336 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: everything about everyone and all their business dealings and who 337 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: they're meeting and where they're traveling, and she's constantly phoning 338 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: and leaving like abusive, threatening, harassing messages. So like there 339 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: were physical cassettes with like her threatening to kill him, 340 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, which, as evidence goes, it kind of kind 341 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: of damning. Some might say. So Paula is like seriously married, CEO, 342 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: you need to get a fucking bodyguard because she is 343 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: Coco Bananas and she's coming for you. And what I'd 344 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: say is like, nah, she's just a woman, and you 345 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: know we've got kids. She's not going to do anything 346 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: to me, Like nah, But Patricia wasn't really into hollow threats. 347 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: On the twenty seventh of March nineteen ninety five, at 348 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: about half eight in the morning, the dorman of the 349 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: Via Ballestero Rovente, where Marizio had his private office, was 350 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: outside sweeping some leaves. Marizzio walks in, saying good morning 351 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 1: to the dorman as he stepped in magazines in his hands, 352 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: and then Amrizzio was shot four times from behind, three 353 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: shots in the back and one in his head. Giseppe Honorado, 354 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: the dorman, he was shot in the arm, and as 355 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: Marizio is dying on the office steps, and as the 356 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: killer flees, Giuseppe crawls towards Marizzio and holds him in 357 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: his arms as he passes away. So, yeah, the day 358 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: after the murder, Paulo Franci and her son Charlie, who 359 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: from her previous marriage, it was like eleven they had 360 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: received an eviction notice from Patricia and what's colored and 361 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,479 Speaker 1: cool ice called. The eviction papers were notarized less than 362 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: three hours after Marizio was murdered, because at the time, 363 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: like if you weren't married, if you were just cohavitating, 364 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: you had like no rights. You were out in the street. 365 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: Tough fucking luck. So Paula and Charlie they move out 366 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: of the Corso Vnezzia apartment and when they're out Patricia 367 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: moves back in with her two daughters and they basically 368 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: live in this like luxury apartment for two years until 369 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: an anonymous tip comes into the police because a night 370 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: portman is boasting about being the person who assassinated Mauritzio 371 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 1: Gucci because clearly he is not the sharpest knife and 372 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 1: the cutlery drawer. So the police launched this sting operation 373 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: to basically catch Patricia and her four accomplices. So there's 374 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: Pina Oriema, who is the astrologer slash psychic. She literally 375 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: so okay, I have to pause for a second and 376 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: tell you about this woman, about this bit right here. 377 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: So she referred to herself as Ridiani's clairvoyant friend, a 378 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: self styled sorcerer, and a high society psychic. So basically 379 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: they arrange it so that they get the psychic, the 380 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: friend of the psychic who set up the hit man, 381 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: the hit man himself, and the getaway driver to discuss 382 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: the whole you know, murdering of a man on wire 383 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: tapped phones, and they fucking succeed evidence wise. They have 384 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: this discussion of the assassination on wire tapped phones gathered 385 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: by the police. They have a Cartier diary taken from 386 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: Patricia's home, which on the day of Marizzio's death, had 387 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: only the word paradesos, which is the Greek word for paradise. 388 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: Now that I'm sorry about that in itself personally is circumstantial. 389 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: Everything else, Okay, talking about the murder on the phone 390 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: to other people, granted, acceptable, But writing paradise the day 391 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: that your ex husband is murdered, when he's about to 392 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: marry another woman and destroy your legacy, egg I can 393 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: I get it? I get that bit. So they've got that, 394 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: and they've also got like the many many cassettes of 395 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: her talking about how much she wants to murder Marizio. 396 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. Also in addition, furthermore, Patricia was talking about 397 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: writing some sort of biography, a sort of a tell 398 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: all about you know, Gucci, and it would tell all 399 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: their little secrets and things like that, and how it 400 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: would have all these like skeletons in the closet that 401 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: would absolutely destroy the house of Gucci. But anyway, the 402 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: trial absolutely fucking nuts. The psychic Pina Oriema confesses to 403 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: organizing the murder along with Patricia. Her friend Ivano Savioni, 404 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: was the hotel night porter who had boasted about the killing, 405 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: and he was the guy who had actually hired Benedetto 406 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: Sirolo the hit man, and Orazzio Cigala, the getaway driver. 407 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: So everybody apart from the hit man, but Benedetto confesses, 408 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: they're like, yep, I was involved. Shit, fuck I did it. 409 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: Shit you know in court, Patricia is like, right, okay, 410 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: I'm innocent. I did want him dead, but I didn't 411 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: do it. I wasn't involved in this. This was just 412 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: a crazy, random happenstance. She denies the whole thing, but 413 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: she admits to paying the psychic, but two hundred thousand quid, 414 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: but not for assisting her in an assassination. Oh no, no, 415 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: it was because the psychic had organized the hit and 416 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: had claimed that she was going to frame Patricia for 417 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 1: it if she didn't pay her, which honestly not not 418 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: the best defense in the world.

Anyway. By twenty eleven, she becomes eligible for 442 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: parole under like this work release program, and Patricia refuses, saying, 443 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: I have never worked a day in my life, and 444 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm certainly not going does start. Now that was a really, 445 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: really bad Italian accent, but you get the gist. She 446 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: ends up getting out in twenty sixteen for good behavior 447 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: after serving eighteen years out of what was originally a 448 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: twenty nine year prison sentence.

But he So, 457 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: Patricia was asked about, you know, the House of Gucci 458 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: maybe coming up, and what she's mad about is the 459 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: fact that Lady Gaga did not come and visit her 460 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: before performing before playing her.
