Former Italian tennis player, Camila Giorgi, has recently faced serious allegations of tax fraud and theft, which she and her father, Sergio, have strongly denied. The rumors originated after the former Wimbledon semi-finalist's sudden decision to end her professional career earlier this year.

The allegations include the theft of furniture and objects valued at up to 100,000 euros from a house they had rented in Calenzano, near Florence. The owner of the villa claims that Giorgi and her father left the property without paying six months' rent and took valuable Persian rugs and other furnishings. According to her statements, this situation has caused considerable financial and emotional damage.

To mark her position on these accusations, Giorgi appeared on the Italian program Veríssimo and held nothing back:

“The problems with the tax authorities? My family did not know about them, they were created by outside people who managed me and did this as a job,” said Giorgi.

“My father did not earn a living doing this, he was just my trainer. We were never afraid, we changed the people who managed us and now we are in order.

Giorgi expressed her frustration at the "misconceptions" that have been formed around her situation. She assured that her father has only been her trainer and was not involved in commercial activities that could have led to these serious allegations.

“I did not expect this. Many misconceptions have been created. They always put my father’s name in the middle, it is not always his fault – he has no business being here.

“We did not flee for tax reasons. I never fled, I never spoke. We did not pay the rent and we took the furniture? The house had no furniture, we brought it ourselves.”

The case has attracted the attention of both the sports media and the general public, leaving many wondering about the future of the former tennis player and the legal consequences she may face.
