While facing one of the most difficult moments of her life, Julieta Prandifinds comfort in her greatest support: her children. Mateo and Rocco, ages 14 and 10, have grown up far from media exposure, but very close to their mother's heart.

Despite keeping her family life strictly private, the actress and host has hinted at the strong connection that unites her with her children, especially in recent times, marked by the legal battle against her ex-partner, Claudio Contardi.

How Julieta Prandi's children have grown

Mateo and Rocco Contardi were born from Prandi's relationship with her ex-husband. Today, now preteens, both live with her and accompany her at every important moment, from her birthday to her book launch.

In the few images she shares on social media, the boys appear smiling, almost as tall as their mother. Mateo has dark curls and a calm demeanor; Rocco, on the other hand, is blond and has a lively energy. Both follow school routines and hobbies that their mother prefers to keep out of the public eye.

During their childhood, Julieta showed her shared passion for soccer. Today, although more reserved, she lets it be seen that the bond with her children remains intact, sustained by a solid and loving relationship, even after the traumatic situations they went through as a family.

The trial against Claudio Contardi and the role of her loved ones

In 2019, Prandi accused Claudio Contardi of aggravated sexual abuse with carnal access, as well as physical, verbal, and psychological violence. This year, the case finally went to trial, after a wait that the actress described as "an agony marked by bureaucracy."

Before testifying at the Campana courts,  she stated that she felt strong, although emotionally exhausted. "I don't wish any victim to go through this wait," she said in an interview with Desayuno Americano (América)

She requested that there be no direct contact with the accused, who is under house arrest, and asked for measures to protect her family. "I'm strong and ready, although I can't deny that I'm broken," she confessed to the press.

In addition to her children, she highlighted the support of her current partner, Emanuel Ortega: "A father is not only the one who begets, but the one who cares. Today, the true father of my children is Emanuel," she said with gratitude.

In the same vein, Prandi revealed a phrase that deeply marked her: her eldest son told her that he was proud of her. She also stated that neither of them wants anything to do with their biological father. That distance, painful but firm, is part of the family story that is now being presented before the courts.

Although the trial is just beginning, Prandi is not alone. Her children, who grew up in silence and with unusual maturity, and Emanuel, her partner, surround her with affection and support. Amid the pain of the process and the tenderness of the love that sustains her, Julieta Prandi faces this stage with fortitude and an emotional network that embraces her at every step.
