Selvaggia Lucarelli and Barbara D’Urso‘s Decades-Long Feud Reignites withโค New Accusations
Milan, โฃItaly โ- December 1, 2025 – โคA long-simmering and intensely personal feud between โคItalian television personalities Selvaggia Lucarelli and โคBarbara D’Urso has flared up again, fueled by โrecent accusations โขand resurfaced detailsโ of a shared past, including a former romantic relationship. The renewedโฃ conflict centers onโ allegations of professional sabotage andโ personal betrayals stretching โคback years,bringing to light a โคcomplex history marked by โฃrivalry and resentment.
The dispute, publicly visible for over a โdecade, gained fresh โmomentum as Lucarelliโ responded to D’Urso’s recent media appearances, alleging a โคpattern of behavior designed to undermine her career. This latest exchange builds upon a foundation of โขanimosity stemming from professional โcompetition โขand, notably, bothโฃ women’s past involvement with television โฃproducer and personality Vickyโ Gitto. The core of the conflict lies in perceptions of unfair treatment, stolen opportunities, and deeply felt personal slights, impacting both their public โขimages andโฃ professional โขtrajectories within the Italian entertainment industry.
Theโ origins ofโ the rift traceโข backโ to the early 2000s, when both Lucarelli and D’Urso โขwere rising stars in Italian television. Lucarelli, known for her sharp commentary and investigative journalism,โ began her careerโฃ as a music โcritic before transitioning to โขtelevision.โค D’Urso, a veteran presenter,โ established herself as a mainstay of popular entertainment programming. A importent point of contentionโ emerged with their simultaneous relationship with โฃVicky Gitto, a connection โฃthatโ reportedly fueled initialโค tensions and accusations of interference. โ
Over theโฃ years,โ the rivalry manifested in public disagreements and veiledโ criticisms. Lucarelli has repeatedly accused โฃD’Urso of leveraging โคher influence to disadvantage competitors, while D’Urso hasโค often โฃdismissedโค Lucarelli’s โclaims as unfounded โjealousy. In 2024, the conflict escalated when โคLucarelli publiclyโ criticized โขD’Urso’s programmingโ choices, sparking a heated โexchange on socialโ media.
The latestโค round of accusations, made inโ late November 2025,โ specifically allege that D’Urso used her position to block Lucarelli from securing certain television opportunities. Lucarelli has not provided โspecific details โof these alleged instances, but her statements have prompted a flurryโ of media coverage and renewed public interest in the decades-long feud.โฃ As ofโฃ December 1, 2025, โD’Urso has not โdirectly responded to the latest allegations, but her representatives have indicated she intends to address the claims through legal channels.The situation remains fluid, withโฃ the potential for further escalation and legal action.
