Mussolini’s Mistress Kept A Detailed Diary
Italian dictator Benito Mussolini maintained relationships with several mistresses – as many as 14 at a time, according to some – but none stuck by him quite as ardently as Clara Petacci. Petacci, his preferred paramour, kept a diary about her time as Mussolini’s mistress that provides intimate insights into her lover’s life and sexual behavior. Although never married to Mussolini, she was the woman behind one of the most powerful leaders of the twentieth century and died alongside him as a result. even perished by his side.

Her death was absolutely uncalled for.

The photos of their dead bodies are very well-known, having been shown in the media countless times through the years … rather pointless to blur that out here.

Now, I'm traumatized by this video, thinking all the canned peaches I ate with mysterious tiny black legs, floating around in heavy syrup.
Pondering now 🤔
Thank you for that revealing 😢

Petacci divorced her husband for Mussolini? In Catholic Italy there was no divorce at that time

YouTube does not need to hide the picture of Mussolini and Petacci. It is common knowledge to anybody who went to High School that they were hanged by the feet. That they were spit on and pelted with garbage. This is not some kind of "dirty secret" the public should never know of. It is called history. YouTube has no right to decide what is proper and what is not!

Power must have been the aphrodisiac here because there is NOTHING attractive about this pathetic narcissist, Mussolini. He reminds me of Putin. 😂😂😂

She's the same kind of woman who writes letters to convicted serial killers in prison and gets with them the second they're out. Thinking their life is going to become some sort of beauty and the beast fairy-tale.

Nope. I'm sorry. Absolutely agitating. And poorly presented. Awful

The commentary and sarcasm in this video was not needed as the content was already interesting.

As a woman….I don't get their attraction. He looks like a foot.

I love the sarcasm. ' Mussolini and Clara tried to cross the border to get away from this World War 2 thing". 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Mussolini was small and bald and fat from an early age and strutted and jestered like a Peacock at political rallies for the cameras, it was laughable, I can not understand why any woman would even find him remotely attractive, much less have sex with him.

not much about the diary itself… too much personal comments and sneering, it,s ok to make fun of him, but maybe you should go into comedy instead of history…no subscribe

He drove an Alfa Romeo? El Đouche was indisputably a fascist PoS but you got to admit he had great taste in cars.

Wow, the story of Mussolini is very controversial, because of the diary of his mistress

WRONG. Mussolini wasn't kept on an island. He was rescued from a mountain top on the mainland.

A person who is true to his ideology can only become dictator. In this era of democracy, is there lack of people who tend to behave as dictator and use democracy in their advantage? Mussolini's beloved chose to die with him while there was opportunity for her to escape leaving him alone. I salute her devotion to him. May God keep them united for ever. Amen.

Do dictators have groupies? Once I was talking to a girl who said Putin is soOoO handsome. That was a dealbreaker.
