Milan, 15 January (LaPresse) – ‘My case ended yesterday with an acquittal. The judge ruled that there were not even grounds for a criminal trial. It is a simple, technical, definitive statement in criminal terms. And it is right to start from here’. This is how Chiara Ferragni begins a long post on Instagram, the day after the ruling on the so-called “Pandorogate”. ‘These two years have been complex, to say the least,’ writes the influencer on social media. ‘Not because I had doubts about myself, but because living under constant judgement, without being able to respond, without being able to explain, puts you to the test in a profound way.’ ‘I have always taken responsibility for what concerned misleading advertising. I realised it was a mistake, and it was right to acknowledge it. I did so: I paid, I corrected, I apologised,’ she concluded.
