The legacy of Pippo Baudo, the presenter who died last August 16 at the Biocampo in Rome, will be divided into three almost equal parts.

The will of the 13-time Sanremo host, a fixture in Italian homes for decades, was opened yesterday in the office of notary Renato Carraffa, in Bracciano (Rome), in the presence of Alessandro and Tiziana, Baudo's two children from two different relationships, and Dina Minna, the assistant who was at the showman's side for nearly 36 years and whom he chose as the recipient of a third of the sum.

Il Messaggero reports this, also estimating the amount of the inheritance: in addition to several properties in Lazio and Sicily, the presenter is said to have received at least ten million euros in compensation for hosting Sanremo 13 times, with a fee of around 800 thousand euros per edition.

There may also have been bequests to two of Baudo's lawyers, who attended the reading of the presenter's last will yesterday, and possible donations to charities are not ruled out.

Minna had always assisted Baudo in his work and, in recent times, helped him manage his medication. She had become a member of the family, as evidenced by her constant presence in the funeral chapel alongside her children: Alessandro, the eldest, born in 1962 from a relationship with Mirella Adinolfi and recognized in 2000, and Tiziana, born in 1970 from his marriage to Angela Lippi.
