In an interview which was published on Corriere Della Sera La Ventisettisma Ora, she says “Overnight I had to adapt to become another person and live with the notion of needing a bodyguard who has been living with me ever since. At the beginning I distanced myself from everything I did: I came back to stay with my mother for a month or two and I did not see anyone anymore. I was afraid. Now it’s better, I’ve found a balance. But I tripled the attention.”

In a wide-ranging interview, Aurora said that the biggest change was to enter the mental setting that would have been this way forever. “One must get used to it. Today I live with the awareness of the risk that I run, but all this has served to shake my life. From that moment on I started to focus more on myself, to train, to think about work. I was living a life that was too free, there had to come a moment when I looked at myself: it happened like that.”

She explains that this threat happened as it was the most effective way to put pressure on her mother. Fortunately it did not happen, but the sense was to damage my future and for a mother to feel responsible for this is hard. But they found a strong and courageous woman.
