Personal life
editIn 2012 she married the Italian cameraman Mario Biondo, who died after less than a year; the death was ruled as unintentional suicide by three coroners and after the Spanish and Italian judiciary investigated the case. However the Italian judge Nicola Aiello in his statement regarding the filing of the case as suicide, heavily contested the first "absolutely summary" investigations carried out in Spain, in which he found "several gaps", and also highlighted how a series of investigations (especially wiretaps) if ordered immediately after the fact (which took place on the 30th May 2013) could have led "to the truth", which would not be that of a suicide: "The elements taken from the public prosecutor's file deny the suicide thesis and suggest that Biondo was killed by an unknown hand and subsequently placed in a position capable of simulating a suicide". A "truth which - writes the judge - was made impossible to find due to investigative delays attributable to the shortcomings of initial investigations", i.e. those carried out in Spain. He also cited Raquel Sanchez Silva's declarations which "present innumerable critical points and are full of contradictions and revealing indicators of mendacity", the hematoma on Biondo's head, and the perfect state of the objects on the bookcase from which the victim was hanging - incompatible with the body spasms that occur in deaths by hanging - as homicide pointers.[2] Since 2014, Sánchez-Silva has been in a relationship with Argentine audiovisual producer Matías Dumont.[3] Together they have two children: Sánchez-Silva gave birth to twins Bruno and Mateo on 21 September 2015.[4]
