Gina Lollobrigida Special Guest of ‘Maurizio Costanzo’s Show’ in
Gina Lollobrigida claims her much younger Spanish boyfriend tricked her into marrying him in order to claim her $50 million fortune! What’s more bizarre is that the Italian screen legend is insisting they never had sex! “Even when we went traveling, we slept in separate rooms and we never had intimate relations,” Gina said.

In the strange case, the 88-year-old film siren claimed Javier Rigau y Rafols (pictured) duped her into signing documents that made the pair legally husband and wife. Javier, who is 34 years younger than the actress, has been charged with fraud and forgery.

The raven-haired beauty was already a superstar in her homeland before making her Hollywood debut in 1953’s “Beat the Devil” as Humphrey Bogart’s wife. Gina supposedly met the handsome, baby-faced bizman at a party in Monaco in 1984. They announced plans to marry in 2006, but she had a change of heart before the ceremony.

Gina also claims they spent little time together. “I never once went to his house in Barcelona. He came [to Rome] a few times to have dinner.” Javier denies the accusations, stating that she agreed to the hush-hush marriage to avoid publicity.
