What happened on I am Ilary episode 1?
On I am Ilary episode 1, Ilary talked about the process of writing and then publishing her own book. Discussing her life events in a book felt "liberating" to her as it became a collection of memories. For Ilary, this was a better way to process her life events, including her divorce. During her confessional interview, she told the cameras she wanted to tell her story herself, as "other people were already telling it." She elaborated:
"Right now, we're about to go to the Che Stupida book launch. It's my first book, also my last. After being silent for a little while, I decided it was time to speak up and tell my story. Because other people were already telling it. But it's mine."
At the book launch, Ilary addressed the impact of her divorce on her life and how the public reacted to it. She opened up about the fans "hoping" she and her ex would get back together again. Ilary stated this was an "affectionate sentiment" while clarifying that the chapter involving her ex had ended. The I am Ilary star continued by saying it wasn't respectful to their current partners either.
Later, she told the cameras:
"This stage of my life coincides with me finally having more free time, focusing on self-awareness and just feeling more free to leave the house. And I don't know, go with the flow."
Ilary shared details about her current relationship, mentioning that she met her partner on a trip to New York. Prior to her trip, a palm reader had stopped her and predicted she would meet someone special on her trip. She explained that she met him on her way back from the trip. Ilary continued:
"So I went on a trip to New York and on the way back is when I met Bastian, then he walks in with a friend. And that's it, we just sat there and looked at each other. It was obvious he isn't Italian, so he asked me what my name was on social media, we started texting on there and getting to know each other like that."
Towards the end of the episode, Ilary concluded she had more time to focus on herself and to go with the flow. All episodes of I am Ilary are available to stream on Netflix. Viewers can follow Ilary on her official Instagram account.
