Vanessa Incontrada, the beloved Spanish actress and presenter who has lived and worked in our country for years, through some stories on Instagram presented, in recent days, her father's stall at the Montepulciano Christmas markets (Siena). What surprised her followers, but in an absolutely positive way, was the fact that she herself supported her father, even if only for a day, selling handicrafts together with him.
It's not the first time for Vanessa
In fact, this isn't the first time this has happened. The actress, highly appreciated not only for her skill, but also for the brightness and simplicity that distinguish her, had already helped her father in 2019 Filippo, street vendor, in a market on Gran Via, in Barcelona (Spain). «I am very amused by the amazed reactions of Italians when they recognize me – Vanessa had candidly admitted on that occasion – . I understand them, because in the newspapers they are used to seeing entertainers on boats or in luxury cars, as if we lived in another reality."
An unexpected gift
On a day that attracted numerous visitors, Vanessa Incontrada sold artisanal items also inspired by Christmas. A real pleasure, as well as an unexpected gift, for those who, upon seeing her, approached her counter to greet her and purchase an object to donate on the most awaited day of the year. The actress, currently busy on TV hosting Zelig, alongside Claudio Bisio, has been the protagonist of successful films.
This, however, has not changed its way of being: simple, spontaneous, attached to its roots. Born in Barcelona in 1978, to an Italian father and a Spanish mother, Vanessa began her career as a model at just 17 years old. Among the latest films in which she starred, we remember “Like a mother” and “Fosca Innocenti”.
