Elettra Lamborghini is set to bring her vibrant personality back to the Sanremo Festival 2025 as one of the co-hosts for the event's third night. Joining fellow presenters Miriam Leone and Katia Follesa, the singer and influencer known for her eye-catching style is poised to captivate audiences just as she has done in past appearances.
Ever since her debut, audiences have eagerly awaited her distinct fashion choices and dynamic performances. But as the spotlight shines on her stage presence, many are curious about the woman behind the glamour—particularly her marital status and life at home with her husband, Afrojack.
Afrojack, whose real name is Nick van de Wall, is not only Elettra's husband but also a celebrated DJ and music producer. Born on September 9, 1987, in Spijkenisse, Netherlands, Afrojack's musical roots trace back to his childhood, where his passion for music took flight when he began playing the piano at age five. Over the years, he carved out his niche within the electronic dance music (EDM) scene, culminating in his own record label, Wall Recordings, launched in 2007. Afrojack has since produced chart-topping hits and collaborated with stars such as David Guetta and Beyoncé, consistently ranking among the top DJs worldwide.
The couple’s love story blossomed quickly after they met, with Afrojack proposing on Christmas Day 2019. They exchanged vows on September 26, 2020, at the stunning Villa del Balbiano on Lake Como, surrounded by friends and family. The wedding marked the culmination of their intense and passionate romance, which Elettra describes as deeply fulfilling; she has often shared, "He is so sweet, and this is what made me fall for him.”
Living primarily between Miami Beach and the whirlwind of their respective careers, Elettra and Afrojack enjoy the comforts of their luxurious home, which reflects both their personalities. With exquisite white and gold decor and artistic touches throughout, their home serves as both a sanctuary and creative space for the couple. Elettra's love for Afrojack is evident as she expresses how they never argue and how they continue to grow together, stating, “I found my person.” She has underlined her trust in him, indicating there’s no jealousy on her part, even with the beautiful dancers he works alongside as part of his job.
Despite the happiness she finds with Afrojack, Elettra’s family life is more complicated. She has three siblings, including Ginevra Lamborghini. Tension exists between the two sisters, stemming from Ginevra's attempt to carve out her own identity within the music industry, which Elettra perceived as betrayal. The rift has been publicly acknowledged; Ginevra revealed during her time on the Italian reality show, Grande Fratello Vip, “We have not communicated since 2019, and I was the only family member not invited to Elettra's wedding.”
This familial discord appears to be centered on professional jealousy and personal choices. Elettra’s disapproval of Ginevra venturing to pursue music has led to their current estrangement, with both sisters expressing regret for the distance but with no clear resolution on the horizon. Ginevra’s decision to enter the music scene was seen as crossing professional boundaries by Elettra, who had worked hard to establish herself first.
Nevertheless, Elettra maintains most of the details of her family situation privately, skillfully garnishing public interest through symbolism rather than transparency. For the most part, she leans toward keeping her private life, especially the ups and downs with her siblings, away from the public eye.
While the life of Elettra Lamborghini is steeped in the glitz of the limelight, her relationship with her family offers insight not just to her vulnerabilities but also the strength with which she confronts challenges—whether personal or professional. Fans eagerly anticipate her presence at Sanremo, ready to be enchanted by her artistry, unaware of the complex family dynamics playing just beneath the surface.
This Festival promises not only Elettra’s infectious energy but also could serve as yet another stage for introspection—both for herself and the audience watching. Amidst the fanfare, questions linger about reconciliation with family and continued growth as an artist and person.
