Jessica Chastain is still trying to master Italian for her husband<\/p>\n
The ‘Molly’s Game’ star has been married to Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo, who is an executive at fashion brand Moncler, since June 2017 and the couple have two children, daughter Giulietta and son Augustus.<\/p>\n
Jessica famous gave her daughter Giulietta a shoutout in Italian when she won the Best Actress Oscar in 2022 for ‘The Eyes of Tammy Faye’, but she admits she has not mastered the language and is still trying her best to become fluent she can converse with her spouse in his mother tongue.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Italian publication IO Donna, she said: “I tried and I\u2019m still trying to learn Italian, since it\u2019s part of my family, but I still don\u2019t feel confident enough to speak without difficulty. <\/p>\n
“I also studied four years of French in high school, alas I don\u2019t remember anything. In the public school system in the United States, unfortunately, you don\u2019t learn much.”<\/p>\n
\nThe 48-year-old actress lives in New York with her family and although it would be easy for her to relocate to Italy she has never considered quitting America, despite the political upheaval she feels since Donald Trump was re-elected as US President.<\/p>\n
\nChastain – whose latest film is ‘Dreams’, directed by Michel Franco – said: “I have loved New York since the first time I went there, on a school trip when I was still a high school student in California. New York is my favourite city in the world. I love walking down the streets and hearing so many different languages, so many different accents. <\/p>\n
\n“Among the many things I like about the city, there is one fundamental: it erases class differences at least twice a day, when everyone \u2013 including me when I walk my children to school \u2013 takes the subway. <\/p>\n
\n“I realise that living in the United States at this time in history means having to accept many decisions and political statements that I do not agree with, especially when it comes to immigration. But I still believe in the good of the United States and I want to be a part of it. Leaving would seem like giving up. And I am not one to give up, so I will not do it just because of one bad apple.”<\/p>\n
