Parents: Gianluca Vacchi, 53, and his girlfriend Sharon Fonseca, 25, have revealed their baby daughter Blu Jerusalema was born with a cleft palate
Gianluca told US Hola: ‘When they told me, my head, my soul and my heart immediately went with Blu, but also with all the children who can have the same condition and who are not lucky enough of having resources like us.
‘The operation consists of opening the palate and suturing the muscles that did not close naturally during pregnancy. But, of course, it is a surgery that involves anesthesia, and Blu is only a few months old.
‘Although the doctors have explained to us that once the problem is corrected, she will be able to lead a completely normal life. Thank God, she looks a lot more like her mother.’

‘I don’t lie if I tell you that this is the first time in a week I put on clothes other than my pjs, and that I haven’t used my phone the whole week, or sometimes I forget to even drink water, while recovering from a c-section.
‘But honestly, I’m enjoying every little second of it. It’s been a week… and I feel nostalgic that time is flying already!!’
