Victoria Gotti - Personal Life

Personal Life

In 1984, shortly after dropping out, she married her high school sweetheart Carmine Agnello, a scrap metal dealer. Together, the couple had three sons, Carmine, Frank and John; a daughter, Justine, was stillborn.

In August 2005, Gotti claimed she had breast cancer. However, after being accused of feigning her illness by some media outlets, she admitted soon after her initial announcement that she did have precancerous cells present in her breast, rather than an actual diagnosis. The bad media she received from her breast cancer claim is also believed to have caused the cancellation of Growing Up Gotti. Her publicist, Matt Rich, also quit as a result of the incident.

As of May 2009, foreclosure was approved on the $11.4 million mansion she was awarded as part of her divorce from Agnello.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “Keep your own secret, and get out other people’s. Keep your own temper, and artfully warm other people’s. Counterwork your rivals with diligence and dexterity, but at the same time with the utmost personal civility to them: and be firm without heat.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “... the great mistake of the reformers is to believe that life begins and ends with health, and that happiness begins and ends with a full stomach and the power to enjoy physical pleasures, even of the finer kind.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
