At first it was Andrea, a young Austrian who had driven him crazy.

Then Francesca arrived, who also gave Matteo Messina Denaro a daughter.

And between one story and another in the godfather's life, Maria broke in and also got a sentence for aiding and abetting him for having hosted and accompanied him during his fugitive. The presence of so many women already traces the profile of a "modern" boss who, at least in private life, has marked a strong discontinuity with the system of family and sentimental values ??of the traditional mafia. Of all the women who have been attributed to him, Maria Mesi is the one who perhaps counted the most in Messina Denaro's life.

Certainly the one that has not made him lack passionate attestations of love together with the tender attentions of a caring companion. "You are the most beautiful thing there is" is the message that he had entrusted to one of the "pizzini", intercepted by investigators. Maria was also thinking about Matteo's innocent pastimes with Nintendo video games, still of the first generation. Attentions that intertwined with the confidences of two lovers.

From the correspondence that came out in the house of Filippo Guttadauro, brother-in-law and liaison between the fugitive boss and his world, the intimate thoughts of a clandestine couple have resurfaced. Maria signed herself and called herself Mari or Mariella. "I would have liked to have known you since I was a child and grow up with you, surely I would have combined all the colors with you because as a child I was a tomboy", she wrote to him. As she grew up, she no longer thought about pranks. She shared with Diabolik the hardships of a menage with little intimacy but also the rare moments of escape and holidays. Like the one in August 1995 in a residence made available by the boss Vito Mazzara (the instigator of the killing of Mauro Rostagno) in San Vito Lo Capo, between the sandy beach,

In this environment, which was that of his criminal reign, Matteo Messina Denaro could move with fearless security because he was surrounded by trusted friends and supporters. Only one caution to Vincenzo Sinacori, who later became repentant, remained in his memory. The godfather used to call his wife by another name, Tecla. More risky because faced without any protective net the holiday in Greece the year before, which the boss had organized under the false name of Matteo Cracolici and always with his partner. Before Mariella conquered him, Diabolik's fame as a fatal man had impressed Andrea Hasleher, a young and beautiful Austrian who worked in a hotel in Selinunte. Matteo Messina Denaro, not yet a Diabolik but already in his career, attended the hotel and the woman who at one point moved into a villa in Triscina rented by the boss. The sudden change had an explanation: the hotel manager, Nicola Consales, had fallen in love with her, who in 1991 was killed in Palermo with two point-blank shots after having confided to his collaborators that he would soon have "these four mafiosos" kicked out. of Matthew's friends. The chronicles of that tragic love story tell that, after the crime, Messina Denaro went to visit his friend in Austria. And they don't add anything else because in the meantime another story was born with Francesca Alagna, sister of the trusted accountant of the former owner of Valtur, Carmelo Patti, suspected of being a figurehead of her godfather. From the relationship with Francesca Alagna in 1996 Messina Denaro had a daughter Lorenza. Never known, he confided to a friend, even if the woman and the girl were welcomed from the first moment at the boss's mother's house in Castelvetrano. They left only in 2013. It has never been clarified whether it was an act of rebellion by the girl or, as appears more probable, a choice caused by the fact that mother and daughter were no longer able to live in a house besieged by the police and carabinieri. In 2021 Lorenza had a child who is not called Matteo like her grandfather. (HANDLE).
