Pippo Baudo’s €10 Million Estate Still Unclaimed Three Months After Will Opened

Ongoing valuations of an estate estimated at about €10 million likely explain the unusual delay.

Overview

  • The will, opened on September 9 at notary Renato Carraffa’s office in Bracciano, names daughter Tiziana, son Alessandro and longtime assistant Dina Minna as beneficiaries.
  • Reporting indicates Minna was left a share roughly comparable to those of the two children, a decision that prompted public criticism from ex‑wife Katia Ricciarelli and a formal rebuttal from Minna.
  • Press estimates place the estate near €10 million, with about €6 million in real estate including four units on Via della Vite in central Rome, an office in Prati and 17 plots across Noto, Siracusa and Fiano Romano, plus 20% stakes in two construction firms.
  • Legal experts say the lag points to due‑diligence on valuations, possible liabilities, taxes and rights, noting heirs have up to ten years to accept even though high‑profile estates are usually settled quickly.
  • The notary describes the testament as simple and notes the heirs may be arranging division or filing acceptance elsewhere, with no public record of a formal challenge.
