Bee Shaffer, Daughter of Anna Wintour, Engaged To Francesco Carrozzini, Son Of Franca Sozzani
/Wedding bells are in Anna Wintour's future with the announcement of the engagement of her daughter Bee Shaffer to Francesco Carrozzini, son of late Vogue Italy editor-in-chief and dear friend of Anna Wintour -- Franca Sozzani.
The couple has been dating for an extended period of time but went public when Shaffer attended a screening of Carrozzini's documentary about his mother, "Franca: Chaos & Creation."
Shaffer works as a segment producer at Late Night with Seth Meyers, while Carrozzini is a film director and photographer who has directed music videos for Beyoncé, A$AP Rocky and Nicki Minaj and worked on advertisements with a number of fashion brands including Roberto Cavalli, Ermenegildo Zegna and Salvatore Ferragamo.
The only child of the legendary Sozzani, Carrozzini lost his mother in late December following a year-long illness. Wintour wrote a moving tribute to her dear friend, that included:
“After she became ill, I began visiting her at her home in Milan,” Wintour wrote. “Her mind and spirit were undiminished as we discussed every topic under the sun, from the fall of Matteo Renzi, to her amazing work with women in Ghana, to our children’s miraculous love affair.”
