Antonella Clerici had emergency surgery this summer: “But now I'm fine and I'll be back on TV”

This summer, Antonella Clerici underwent emergency surgery. “I'm fine, I'm happy to have them back and we're starting again. Complaining is not part of my DNA, because I was lucky,” she says today in an interview with Republic in which he announces his return to Rai 1 with È sempre midi. Today, when they ask him “How are you?” his friends do it “with a different affection. They come up to me and hug me. It's nice to be appreciated and it's a privilege. They really want to know how I'm doing, it's not a casual statement.” But he decided not to get married because “marriages have always brought me bad luck, there are inheritances, you have to decide what to do first, for God's sake. I work, I'm independent, he has a big family and I get along with everyone. When there are financial situations, children, everything becomes complicated. I don't like it.”

Underrated

She says she felt underestimated several times at Rai: “In 2026 I will celebrate 40 years of Rai, the first contract dates back to 1986. The episodes are well known, I was kicked out of my shows, when I got pregnant I had a hard time getting back in. The managers should make their leads feel important, but they forget. On the contrary, even a phone call, a greeting, is nice and would be right: little things that do us good, artists, with our fragilities.” On Telemeloni, she says she is not interested in politics: “She always joined Rai, we are acrobats, I am not fascinated by power. Every time the government has changed, I have seen everything: if you are worth it and if you have a job, you continue independently.”

The years that pass

And today he finds himself faced with “the years that pass?” A small yes, not for the physical aspect. The settings are ok, without distortion. The horizon is narrowing, in 20 years I will be 80 and I want to stay healthy, I do sports, I eat well, I walk. Paolo Bonolis, when I was doing The Cook's Test and He Affari Tui, remembers my boxes of macaroni in sauce in the dressing room. If I ate like that today. Menopause was a disaster.” And today, he teaches his daughter “that you don't have to be perfect and do the things that make you happy. Maelle is 15 and a half, I tell her to take care of her health, when she eats crap and gets sick, I worry about her doing sports. I'm a pain in the ass with school, his strength is that he has an imperfect mother. She is more mature than her age, her boyfriend is 20: you have to let your children be free, you shouldn't overprotect them. They have to make mistakes and, if necessary, they have to be punished. I set limits: you are free from here to here.”
