Giacomo Vacalebre joins ‘Uomini e Donne’ as new tronista

Giacomo Vacalebre, a 30-year-old commercial manager, has been introduced as the new tronista for the upcoming season of the Italian dating show ‘Uomini e Donne’. Presented via WittyTV, Vacalebre joins the ‘Trono Classico’ alongside another participant, Giorgia.

Vacalebre describes himself as a reserved individual who values real-life connections over social media presence. A former professional tennis player, his athletic career ended at age 18 due to an injury. He expressed a desire to find a serious, mature relationship following a previous long-term relationship that lasted 12 years.

His arrival has coincided with online controversy after a past social media post resurfaced. In the post, which was highlighted by Deianira Marzano, Vacalebre had criticized the show ‘Temptation Island’, labeling it as being ‘for mental patients’.
