Days of Our Lives actress Jessica Michel Serfaty, 33, accuses fiancé Leonardo Del Vecchio, 29, of abuse in tearful Instagram video before 'revoking' claims and defending him hours later

I have had the privilege of observing the captivating love story between Jessica Serfaty and Leo Del Vecchio unfold through various media outlets. The way their connection has blossomed over the years, from friends at the Cannes Film Festival to an engaged couple living a luxurious lifestyle, is truly mesmerizing.


As a lifestyle expert, I’d put it this way: I was surprised and saddened to see Days of Our Lives actress Jessica Serfaty take to social media last week with tears in her eyes, accusingly pointing fingers at her Italian billionaire fiancé for alleged instances of abuse. However, the very next day, she retracted her statement, leaving many of us who had rallied behind her feeling confused and uncertain about the truth behind their relationship.

I, an ardent admirer of Jessica, couldn’t believe my eyes when she dropped a bombshell allegation about Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio, the young heir of Ray-Ban, during her recent Instagram live session last Sunday night.

“This is the wealthy Del Vecchio I’ve endured mistreatment from,” she explained hesitantly, directing the camera toward him with an estimated net worth of $4.6 billion.

I’d like to share some important information with you all – something that’s been causing me quite a bit of discomfort lately. Specifically, I’ve had some unexplained bleeding from my nose and ears, which I felt compelled to address in this video. So, I thought it would be best if I showed you firsthand. (Turning the camera towards myself) Here’s a look at what I’ve been dealing with.

Arkansas native Jessica had tears in her eyes.

In the brief video, taken below deck on a lavish yacht, no traces of blood were noticeable to the naked eye.

Del Vecchio, clad in a beige military jacket and vibrant Bedouin trousers, remained silent while Jessica spoke to her hundred thousand devotees.

Nearby, a second man stood quietly, looking uneasy as he observed the heated exchange between the two men.

By Monday, Jessica had shared a picture of herself on the deck, wearing a bikini, accompanied by a message retracting her accusation against Del Vecchio and expressing support for him.

‘Leo and I apologize for any who were triggered or affected by yesterday’s story.

‘Sometimes a family can have their own arguments and these should never be made public,’ it stated.

At the moment, we kindly request that you give us space and honor our need for privacy. Contrary to any rumors or misconceptions, I have never cohabited with a man who was abusive, and Leonardo DelVecchio is no exception to this rule.

I deeply regret the harsh words I spoke in the heat of anger, which were not grounded in truth. Looking back, I realize that those words were directed towards a man who holds significant roles in my life – my companion, stepfather, and family person. I take back every word that came from a place of anger, acknowledging the impact they may have had on our relationship. My past experiences have taught me the importance of speaking with kindness and compassion, especially towards those who are close to us. I strive to learn from this moment and move forward with love and understanding.

The statement appeared in white letters against a black backdrop. Below it, Jessica added DelVecchio’s Instagram username accompanied by a heart symbol.

He reposted it to his own account and has not commented further.

 Neither responded to requests for comment.

Jessica, a mother of one, is most recognized for her role as Sloan Peterson on Days of Our Lives and for headlining the 2020 film, Wheels of Fortune.

Last summer, in July, the previous contestant on America’s Next Top Model revealed her engagement to Milan resident Del Vecchio. Notably, his late father, Leonardo Del Vecchio, held the position of chairman at Essilor Luxottica – a renowned luxury eyeglass company based in Italy.

The six children inherited the business, which is the parent company of brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley, Sunglasses Hut, and Persol. Youngest among them, Leonardo, now holds the position of chief strategy officer and is among the world’s youngest billionaires.

At the 2017 Cannes Film Festival, Jessica crossed paths with Del Vecchio, who previously dated high-profile figures like Ed Westwick from “Gossip Girl” and YouTube sensation Logan Paul.

For several years, we’ve shared a deep friendship. But one summer evening, as we sat overlooking the breathtaking views of Italy’s Amalfi Coast from a luxurious five-star hotel, my Italian beau took things to the next level. With a sparkle in his eye and a heart full of love, he asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. I happily agreed, and we are now engaged, cherishing the memories of that magical moment.

I’m thrilled to live a lavish life filled with extraordinary experiences. I jet-set around the globe on exclusive yachts and private jets, taking in breathtaking views and indulging in unforgettable journeys. Fashion shows, Formula One races, and glamorous galas are just a few of the exciting events I have the pleasure of attending, where I connect with like-minded individuals and enjoy the finer things life has to offer.

According to Italian media, Del Vecchio’s marriage to Anna Castellini Baldisserra in 2021 ended after just six months.

Before Leo proposed, we shared some amusing moments during the previous week by recounting our past engagement experiences to each other. (Serfaty’s statement to People magazine in July last year)

As an engaged follower, I used to poke fun at the long list of dos and don’ts associated with making a proposal. Yet, I was utterly caught off guard when he unexpectedly dropped to one knee before me.

When Leo could no longer contain his emotions, I witnessed the delight on his face, which turned into tears at last. I’m sorry for causing you to weep, Leo, it was an unplanned moment of intense feeling and beauty.

Jessica’s recent social media posts depict two people deeply in love.

On July 13, she posted a picture on Instagram of herself embracing her charming fiancé. In the caption, she playfully quipped: “Wish your personality was more appealing.”

In a new photo, she gazed lovingly into his eyes during a romantic dinner, with the caption adding, “Can’t finish dinner without a kiss.”

At the Met Gala in New York City last May, photographs captured Jessica donning a flowery silk gown by Dolce & Gabbana and Del Vecchio wearing a double-breasted solaro suit. They both accessorized their looks with Ray-Ban sunglasses.
