According to Express, the 31-year-old newlywed can now be referred to as an Italian Contessa or Nobile Donna, which translates as noble woman.

Speaking to Mail Online ahead of his son’s wedding, Alessandro reportedly revealed that Edoardo, 37, is the only male descendant taking their family into the next generation.
