About Alessia Ventura

Born on April 10, 1980, in Moncalieri, Italy, Alessia Ventura embarked on a career that would see her transition from the runway to the small screen. Growing up in Turin, her early passions for soccer and contemporary dance foreshadowed her future path, alongside a blossoming beauty. At the age of fifteen, she launched her career as a model, embracing the new world of photoshoots, fashion shows, and competitive modeling.

Just a year later, Ventura added television to her burgeoning experience by becoming a showgirl. This involved not only solo performances but also participating in singing and dancing ensembles. Her natural ease on stage and photogenic qualities instilled in her the belief that a life in entertainment was a viable professional pursuit. Concurrently, she pursued and obtained a diploma in business.

A significant turning point arrived in 1999 when, at nineteen, Ventura secured a prominent role on the Italian adaptation of The Price is Right. She maintained this high-profile position for two years before shifting her focus to acting in soap operas, taking on a part in Cento vetrine. In April of 2021, she welcomed a daughter with her partner, Gabriele Schembari.
