Morata’s stunning wife Alice reveals striker asked her to marry him just eight months after she ignored his messages
ALVARO MORATA asked stunning Alice Campello to marry him just eight months after she ignored his messages on Instagram.
Italian model and fashion designer Campello has revealed the smitten Juventus striker messaged her out of the blue during his first stint in Turin.
And she admits she initially IGNORED the former Chelsea man… only to end up engaged less than a year later.
In an interview with the weekly, Alice, 25, said: “He had seen a picture of me and asked many people if they knew me, to introduce us, but not we had friends in common.
“So he wrote to me (on Instagram). I answered him after a long time and, in the end, we met.
“When I met him, he struck me because I immediately knew he was very serious.
“For example, two weeks after our first date, he drove eight hours to meet my family, and returned to Turin very late, even though he had to train early the next day.
“This and a thousand other gestures. “
She continued: “His friends and family had never seen him like this and he kept telling me he wanted to marry me: in the end, he asked me eight months after we started dating.

“It’s been almost five years and three children.
“I think it is like this when you really fall in love: you change priorities and you just want to build something with the person you love.
“For me it was the same.”
Morata had already returned to his homeland with Real Madrid by the time he popped the question, during a magic show.
And Alice has since followed him to London during his uninspiring stint with Chelsea, back to Madrid with Atletico… before ultimately going full circle for his second spell with Juve.
The couple have twins, Leonardo and Alessandro, and a few weeks ago announced the birth of their third child, Edoardo.
They tied the knot just in June, getting married in Venice in front of a star studded audience including Isco and Simone Zaza.
