Andrea Bocelli Marries Longtime Girlfriend Veronica Berti

Italian singer and tenor Andrea Bocelli has officially tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend of twelve years.

Bocelli married his long time partner Veronica Berti in the coastal town of Livorno, Italy over the weekend. The 55-year-old has been in a relationship with Berti since 2002 whom they have a daughter together.

The couple chose to get married on March 21st because they said the date had a significant meaning to the couple. March 21st is not only the start of spring, but is also their daughter Virginia’s birthday. She is now two.

Reps for the couple confirmed that Bocelli and Berti had a small intimate ceremony at the Sanctuary of Montenero which was attended by close friends and family, including Bocelli’s two sons, Amos, 19, and Matteo, 16, from his previous marriage to Enrica Cenzatti (m. 1992-2002).

After the wedding ceremony the couple held the reception in their home in Forte dei Marmi, which is a small coastal town about an hour outside of Livorno.
