Italian TV presenter, socialite and model Gessica Notaro is increasingly making headlines. Six years ago, she almost died when her ex-boyfriend poured sulphuric acid on her face. She underwent several surgeries but lost an eye.

In 2007, Notaro was in the final of the Miss Italy pageant, and 10 years later she said goodbye to her beauty. However, she re-learned how to be beautiful and proved that it is possible to survive the most cruel vicissitudes in life. OBOZREVATEL showed how the woman has changed and what she is doing now.

Since childhood, Gessica Notaro has been singing on stage, participating in talent shows, and in 2007 was one step away from winning the Miss Italy beauty pageant. After that, she started her career in television.

Gessica was dating George Edson Tavares from the African Republic of Cape Verde. In the winter of 2017, the beauty decided to break off the relationship because he was an abuser and a tyrant. After the breakup, she wrote several statements to the police, fearing for her life. Her ex-boyfriend threatened to kill her. The police even issued a ban on the man's approach to his ex-girlfriend, but this did not stop him. Georges tracked Notaro to her home and doused her with sulphuric acid.

The attacker was initially sentenced to 18 years in prison, but later reduced to 15 years. As a result of the attack, Gessica lost her left eye, but doctors managed to restore the skin of her face and the scars are almost invisible.

In 2017, Gessica Notaro was awarded the Chevalier of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic for her courage and determination, for raising public awareness of the issue of combating gender-based violence.

Gessica is now involved in charity work, supporting women who have suffered from domestic violence. She often posts stories of victims of tyranny on Instagram. In addition, the girl is dating circus performer Filippo Bogliotti, who proposed to her.

Notaro recently appeared on Italian television singing a song. She still has a bandage on her face to cover her injured eye, but this does not stop her from conquering show business.

Earlier, OBOZREVATEL wrote about the fate of a man who received a face transplant. The guy works as an electrician and plans to get married.
