Olympic mishap
Sunk in the Seine: flag bearer loses his wedding ring
High jumper Gianmarco Tamberi had a mishap at the Olympic opening ceremony on Friday. While waving the Italian flag, he sank his wedding ring in the Seine.
How annoying! As reported by "Il Messaggero", the ring slipped off the 32-year-old's wet hand and fell into the river.
Together with fencer Arianna Errigo, Tamberi was leading the Italian team.
Video evidence
According to the report, a water polo player quickly sent a video to Tamberi's wife to prove that the mishap was involuntary. Tamberi has been together with Chiara Bontempi since 2009 and married since September 2022. Now he needs a new ring.
A good omen?
Tamberi later apologized to his wife. "I'm sorry, my dear, I'm so sorry. Too much water, too many kilos lost in the last few months or perhaps the unbridled enthusiasm for what we were doing. Probably all three." However, he also knew how to take some good out of the loss: "May it be a good omen to return home with a bigger gold."
