Talk:Rachele Mussolini

Untitled
I wasn't able to find any proof that "In her later life she ran a restaurant": Mussolini's parents ran a restaurant, and this is where Mussolini and Donna Rachele (waiter) met. After the war, both Villa Mussolini in Rimini and Rocca delle Caminate (near Forlì), former Mussolini's properties now in the State's property, were turned into restaurants, but this has nothing to do with Mrs Guidi. --g 07:34, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

For English-speaking peoples. Pleace, notice that "Donna" is not a first name in Italian, so it's impossible she was born "Donna Rachele Guidi". The name of Mussolini's second wife was simply Rachele Guidi. "Donna" is a honorary and unofficial title, such as English "Lady" (though I seem that it is used officially in Britain).had alot of sex with mussolini but later found out that she was mussolinis second wife!!

For English / Americans: Italian women (almost universally) do not "take" the name of their husbands after marriage. She is, was and forever will be Rachele Guidi. Avvocato48 (talk) 16:42, 13 February 2009 (UTC)


 * it's incredible that no-one changed the name after 13 years Astrognomo (talk) 07:46, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Indeed, the title of this entry, and the first sentence "Rachele Mussolini was born Rachele Guidi" do not make sense. The title should be "Rachele Guidi Mussolini", and the first sentence should just state "Rachele Guidi was born..." However I am unable to change the title... comment added by Yougeeaw (talk • contribs) 04:09, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Pension incoherency
She eventually received a pension from the Italian Republic in 1975. It turned out that Mussolini had not received a salary from the state, and therefore she could not receive a pension.

This text in the article does not make sense, or at least needs explanation. Either she received a pension, or she did not. Ikjbagl (talk) 02:32, 25 August 2018 (UTC)


 * It seems that she really received a pension from the Italian Republic. I found a deliberation of "Corte dei Conti, sezione III pensioni civili: decisione 20 luglio 1968, n.25651" Moretti, B., et al. “Sezione III Pensioni Civili; Decisione 20 Luglio 1968, n. 25651; Pres. Parascandolo, Est. Barbato, P. M. Spadaro (Concl. Parz. Diff.); Rachele Guidi Ved. Mussolini (Avv. Di Gravio, Mariani) c. Pres. Cons. Ministri e Min. Tesoro.” Il Foro Italiano, vol. 91, no. 10, 1968, pp. 415/416–431/432; that accept Rachele Guidi request for a pension, stating that his husband was during 20 years 8 months and 27 days an employee of Italian State

 * The text is still spectacularly incoherent. Barefoot through the chollas (talk) 20:04, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

Pension Incoherency
It says she received a pension but then said she was not eligible for a pension and ends there. Its contradicting should be corrected. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:EmilePersaud 18:09, 29 January 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by EmilePersaud (talk • contribs)
