In this EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Princess Rita Boncompagni Ludovisi, the elusive American princess opens up about her relationship with the late Prince Nicolò, the unpleasant inheritance fight she's currently embroiled in with her stepsons, how she feels about the prospect of being forced from her home, and—perhaps most intriguingly—what it's like to live at Villa Aurora, a five-hundred-year-old home decorated with paintings by Guercino, Pomerancio, and even Caravaggio, with its gardens full of ancient statuary. Listen to more about Villa Aurora on Bittersweet Moment #30: Villa Aurora and Episode 412 The Auction of a Lifetime: The Villa, the Princess, and the Caravaggio. ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.
