Her fans mirrored her sentiment amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic but also marvelled at her gorgeous complexion, calling her "beautiful," and "stunning".

Others also noticed how Brigitte and Mattia were co-ordinated in their dress code for their at-home party. 

"Love the matching outfits," wrote one, while another said: "You two are too cute."

Brigitte and Mattia have been married since 2006

The couple have been married since 2006 and he is Brigitte's fifth husband.

Brigitte has five children and she shares her youngest with Mattia 

Brigitte confessed: "My current husband, Mattia Dessi, is 15 years younger than me and I’m really happy now. He's probably more mature than me mentally, but physically we're not the same and I do wonder if he will love me when I am 60 and he is 45."

They have a two-year-old daughter, Frida, together and Brigitte is also a mum to four other children. 

The star had been trying IVF for a decade with several failed attempts. She and Mattia continued trying for a child, despite doctors telling her she only had a 2.5 per cent chance of success.  

She gave birth to her little girl at the age of 54.
