Clara Petacci, for family Claretta, was born in Rome on 28 February 1912. Since I was a child, in full fascist regime, Clara idolizes the duce, they meet by accident at the age of twenty. While heading to Ostia with family in April of ' 32, the car of Alfa is exceeded the then fifty Petacci Benito Mussolini: the girl manages to attract the attention of the duce to a roundabout, exchanges a few words with the most powerful man in Italy and is able to obtain a first private audience. Thus began a relationship between the two: Initially it is mostly of countless letters and cards of Claretta the duce, written by which the woman tries to get favors for your family and especially tries to have a chance to review the duce; most of these letters remain unanswered, until Justin is contacted by phone from duce the 10 November 1932 and she was invited to the palazzo Venezia: the two begin to look increasingly, so much so that they become lovers in 1936, a few months before the separation of Clara from her husband. The Petacci proves a mistress rather “understanding”: Despite being madly in love and jealous of “Ben”, How to use call his adored in correspondence today partly published and doesn't pretend that the Italian Prime Minister let his partner officer, his wife donna Rachele; pretend though, on several occasions, that Benito may stop attending the many lovers of which surrounds, what the duce he can never do everything. Betrayal with lovers, as one with the Sarfatti and the one with the Rajneesh, exacerbate in Claretta a sense of possession in respect of the beloved, who is obliged to call the woman every half an hour to put her mind at ease and let her know your trip. The relationship between the two has an obsessive character, and come to a junction in the 1943, When Justin exhausted because of the constant betrayals of the duce bursts into a nervous breakdown; Mussolini, alarmed by this attitude and increasingly continue gossip about it, Decides to end it all. But this is not a final decision, so much so that in July of the same year, before the fateful meeting of the Grand Council on the night of 24 and the 25, Benito needs to call his beloved, probably to inform her of what was going on. The proximity to the duce attorney to Clara Petacci's family and of the most important economic benefits and visibility, such a great mansion bordering villa Torlonia, the home of Benito. However, It would be shortsighted and probably wrong consider the bond which United Claretta Mussolini just from the point of view of profit and loss: This wouldn't explain the excruciating end to which the girl has gone meeting just to stay to the end with the man loved and praised, end of which Clara had a lucid awareness. Justin was a fascist convinced even before Mussolini's mistress. There are more theories that revolve around the woman figure, one of them believes that Petacci was a spy or German. Probably we will never know the whole truth about this character so controversial, or maybe, more simply, There is nothing more to know: Justin was a woman who died for love, a woman for whom their lives, without you beside Benito Mussolini – man and politician, would no longer have any sense.
