Ah we said, wait, here we have something “, Luca recounts about the powerful song that has made mls sing and that was re-released by Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lpez in 2016, 2 years later. of their divorce.

When I learned, I asked them how it was to divide professional life with personal that includes your only brother, Luca smiles with a fire between laughs: “It has been intense, how long have you been?”.

“Most about times is fine, but you have our arguments, our fights, our tensions about which we are master of science estranged “, he confesses.
