Edi Bocelli’s Net Worth and Income

Nothing much is out about her earnings, but she shares the net worth of her son Andrea Bocelli. 

So, it is a no-brainer that she has more than enough money for herself.

Edi Bocelli Family, Children, and Personal Life

Edi was of Italian descent and was born somewhere in Italy. She had not shared anything about her hometown or parents, or siblings. So, not much is known about her personal life.

However, because of her son, Andrea, many came to know about her later life. 

She was married to her husband, Alessandro Bocelli, and had two sons, Andrea and Alberto.

The mother of the world-famous musicians had a life full of luxury, but it was not the same in the past.

Edi had gone through her share of hardship. When she was pregnant with Andrea, the doctors suggested aborting the baby as there was a high chance of the baby being disabled.

But Edi did not agree to that. Instead, with the support of her husband, she decided to give birth to the baby and raised it.

She gathered all her courage and kept an optimistic opinion while raising her son, Andrea. 

However, the doctors were right, and Andrea was born with problems in his sight and soon was diagnosed with congenital glaucoma when he was just five months old.

Things got worse when Andrea lost his eyesight entirely at twelve during a football match. Despite all these hardships, Edi never gave up on her son.

Though Andrea was devastated for a few days, Edi never left his side. To this day, Andrea credits his mother and father for who he has become. 

He shares that the decision made by his mother not to abort him gave him courage and made him optimistic about life. It was her willingness to live life to the fullest that gave new directions to him.

Andrea also shared heartfelt lyrics from his track Mamma to pay tribute to Edi on mother’s day. On another occasion, he, along with his daughter Virginia, also dedicated a video to her. Virginia’s mom’s name is Veronica Berti.

Likewise, Amos and Matteo’s mom is Andrea Bocelli’s ex-wife Enrica Cenzatti.

Edi enjoyed a blessed life with her family before passing away on 28th May 2022. Despite losing her husband in 2000, she had her family to lean on.

She spent a lot of time with her sons, Andrea and Alberto, and their children. Edi is survived by her sons and five grandchildren. Matteo, Amos, and Virginia are from Andrea and Rachele is from Alberto.

Edi Bocelli’s Husband and Relationship

Edi was married to her husband Alessandro until he died in 2000. The couple had a great relationship where they supported each other.

Even during the birth of Andrea, Alessandro gave all his support to Edi when she decided to keep the baby, even after the doctors suggested abortion.

Edi and Alessandro were happily married and were enjoying their life with sons and grandchildren before the death of Alessandro.

Education and Major

Edi has not shared anything about her educational qualification or about the academic institutions that she attended.

So, no one has any idea about her educational background.

Career

Edi used to work on a farm with her husband in one of the small villages of Tuscany when Andrea was just a kid. 

She used to make wine and sell farm machinery along with her husband to earn their living. However, after Andrea made it big, he gave his parents all the luxury. Edi and her husband left the farm life after that.

Since then, Edi was sharing her son’s success and spent time with her sons and grandchildren.
