Overview
- Italian outlets this week named Marco Calone, a Neapolitan singer described as close to Diego Maradona Jr., as the man now linked to Nunzia Pennino.
- LA NACION reports that journalist Gabriele Parpiglia broke the story and that Corriere dello Sport repeated it, with more details promised.
- Argentina’s TV show LAM relayed the Italian reports, and its panelist Carolina Molinari said she confirmed with the reporter driving the coverage.
- Asked by LAM, Maradona Jr. declined to comment out of respect for his children and did not explicitly deny the version, according to Molinari’s account.
- The couple’s breakup became public in August 2025 after nearly 12 years and two children, and prior coverage cited a legal complaint by Pennino and noted his on‑off social media closures.
