Florencia Raggi Reveals What She Thought About Nicolás Repetto at the Start of Their Relationship: “I Thought It Wasn’t Going to Work”

20 October 2026

Guest on the program Another Day Lost, on El Trece, Florencia Raggi spoke about her love story with Nicolás Repetto and surprised everyone by recalling the doubts she had at the start of their relationship. Although they have been together for more than three decades, the actress and model confessed that back then she wasn’t sure the bond could thrive.

Raggi and Repetto began their relationship in the mid-90s and built a love story that endures to this day. In 2008, the couple married in secret and formed a family with their two children, Renata, born in 1998, and Francisco, in 2001.

However, the beginning was not free of uncertainty. During the chat with Mario Pergolini, the actress recalled how she imagined her romantic future before meeting the host and acknowledged that her expectations didn’t fully match the profile of the man who would become her life partner.

Florencia Raggi and the doubts she had at the start of her relationship with Nicolás Repetto

“I’ve always been very ‘Susanita’,” explained Raggi, referring to the emblematic Mafalda character, known for her desire to marry and start a family.

“I wanted a long marriage. I thought it wouldn’t work with Nico,” she revealed about her thoughts at that time. Despite her initial doubts, the actress decided to take a chance on the relationship.

To explain the reasons for that first impression, Raggi noted that Repetto had a profile different from the one she imagined for a partner. “Besides, I was so young, and he was so famous and accomplished. With other children and two ex-wives… And it worked, look,” she said casually.

The actress referred to the conductor’s past relationships. Repetto was married to Cecilia Fontanarrosa between 1978 and 1983, a bond that produced Nicolás and Valeria. Later, he had a relationship with Reina Reech between 1986 and 1992, with whom he had Juana.

When Pergolini asked whether Repetto had other partners, Raggi clarified that she was speaking specifically about his former marriages and the relationships from which his children were born.

During the interview, the host also wanted to know if the actress was jealous. Faced with Raggi’s initial silence, Pergolini proceeded and asserted that yes. Between laughs, she agreed, though with a clarification: “If you don’t give me reasons, I won’t.”

When asked how she reacts to jealousy, the actress answered candidly: “I’m a little violent, I go a bit crazy. But really, zero, I’m not paying attention. I give myself security; it sits better with me this way.”

What Florencia Raggi said about the rumors of a split

Another topic that came up during the conversation was the rumors of a breakup that circulated about the couple over the years. Raggi acknowledged that, although they bothered her at first, she eventually learned to take them in stride.

“Now it amuses me. They have bothered me, I won’t say they didn’t. But after so many years it has become like a callus,” she said about the versions that periodically surface in the media.

In addition, she questioned posts reviving supposed crises without providing concrete information. “They’ve brought up things again that have nothing to do with it. If you click on the article, you’ll see they don’t say anything,” she stated.

With a relaxed and sincere demeanor, Raggi revisited the beginnings of her relationship with Nicolás Repetto and made it clear that, although she initially doubted whether the story would work, time ultimately proved otherwise.
