Edoardo also explained that people in his recent past also helped him investigate a question that he has taken with him since childhood, but various fears stopped him from studying it at a deeper level. He took the first step of going to live with two priests and termed it the best experience of his life. "At the end of the year, it was natural for me to ask the bishop to enter the preparatory course, the year that precedes life in the seminary. And here I am, studying theology and serving two parishes in the Florentine diocese," he said. "Of course, I have people that speak behind my back. There are those who have no problem telling me that I'm a disappointment, even in my family. But there are also those who support me, believers and non-believers," lamented the star. He said that although it 'terrified him' to abandon his dream and become a priest, he was sure he would not regret the decision because he was happy.
