What did Vittoria Ceretti say about nepo babies?
In a now archived Instagram Story the model said: I get the whole ‘I’m here and I work hard for it’, but I would really love to see if you would have lasted through the first five years of my career.
"Not only being rejected, because I know you have an experience with it and you can tell me your sad little story about it (even if at the end of the day you can still always go cry on your dad’s couch in your villa in Malibu)... But how about now being able to pay for your flight back home to your family? Waiting hours to do a fitting/casting just to see a nepo baby walk past you, from the warm seat of [their] Mercedes with [their] driver and [their] friend/assistant/agent taking care of [their] mental health?... You have no f***ing idea how much you have to fight to make people respect you. TAKES YEARS. You just get it free by day one."

"It's not nice to think that you can’t love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you," she said, although she never named Leo.
