The Cancellation of 'Strong and Clear' and the Multifaceted Career of Chiara Francini

The program 'Strong and Clear', hosted by Chiara Francini, has been prematurely suspended: the last episode, in fact, will not be aired. This was announced by the Prime Time Direction. 'The project, conceived with experimental purposes and conveying important and original values, however, did not produce the desired results,' explains a note. 'The Direction thanks Chiara Francini who confirmed to be a great artist by accepting the challenge of bringing this idea to the prime time of Rai1'. Let's find out who Chiara Francini is. Chiara Francini was born in Florence on December 20, 1979 (43 years old), she is an Italian actress and writer. After graduating in Literature at the University of Florence, she dedicated herself full-time to acting. Thanks to her first brilliant appearances in theater, she landed on television with the fiction Gente di Mare 2. But cinema is her great passion: among the most successful films she acted in are Una moglie bellissima, Ti sposo ma non troppo, Maschi contro femmine and La peggior settimana della mia vita. As for TV, Francini acted in series such as Tutti pazzi per amore, Purché finisca bene and Non dirlo al mio capo. Chiara Francini also started a brilliant career as a writer: she published four books for Rizzoli between 2017 and 2020, including Il cielo stellato fa le fusa and Un anno felice. Francini is also a columnist for La Stampa and has published in various newspapers. As a host, she led shows like Love Me Stranger and Drag Race Italia. About her private life, Chiara Francini was linked from 2005 to Frederick Lundqvist, former player of the Swedish national team. A story that should have ended but whose details are not known, since Francini has always been very private about it. Now the actress, although according to rumors should be romantically linked to the videomaker and author content creator Francesco Maddaloni, whom she knows since 2005. But nothing confirmed so it could also just be a wonderful friendship. She was one of the co-hosts of Sanremo 2023. Her monologue caught everyone's attention, despite the late hour it was aired. Words and thoughts on the choice of being or not being a mother. 'There comes a time in life when it's clear that you have grown up: when you have a child. Now, I, Chiara, do not have a child. However, I believe it's something after which there's no doubt you can no longer be as young as you were at sixteen, with a scooter, disco, and high school. And there comes a time, in life, when everyone around you starts to have children. It's an avalanche. But... it always starts with one who you knew would become a mother before everyone else. In my case, Lucia. There was a day, a few years after high school, that Lucia asked to see me. We were sitting at the pool bar, she was all excited and at one point, with a face I had never seen her make she goes. 'OMG!!! Finally, I can tell you! I'm pregnant!'. That's how the text starts, true, powerful, and disruptive. The monologue word for word.
