Call girl Patrizia D'Addario claims to have had a relationship with Silvio Berlusconi

An escort who has written an explosive book detailing alleged sexual exploits with Silvio Berlusconi claims she was attacked and threatened after sleeping with him.

Patrizia D'Addario described in her autobiography Gradisca Presidente (Enjoy President) how recorded anonymous phone calls where she was called a ‘whore and a bitch’.

Ms D'Addario, 42, also claimed that her mother was assaulted by a man who said: ‘This is to teach your whore of a daughter a lesson’.

And she wrote that four men dressed as police tried to break down her door.

Another man who claimed to be a former policeman at first offered to protect her but then ransacked her flat and tried to rape her.

Ms D'Addario hit the headlines earlier this summer when it emerged she was one of several escorts invited to the premier's official residences for parties - and paid to stay the night.

In the book, which is published today, she compared being in Berlusconi's home to a ‘harem’ as she wrote of ‘lesbians and other escorts’ at the parties.

Greeted with champagne and foccacia at Berlusconi's home, Palazzo Grazioli, in Rome she adds: 'After ten minutes, he arrives, the premier. He greets everybody and everyone seems to know him. He kisses everyone.'

Ms D'Addario was brought to the party by businessman Giampaolo Tarantini, from her home town of Bari in southern Italy and who is under investigation for supplying prostitutes and cocaine.

In her book Ms D'Addario details how she spoke with former property developer Berlusconi about her desire to carry on with a hotel complex her father was building before he committed suicide.

Using the name Alessia she describes how Berlusconi calls her ‘sweet’ and then asks her to sit on a couch and after swapping a few jokes with the other girls ‘looks hard at me.’

Patrizia D'Addario's book will cause further embarrassment to the Italian president - whose wife announced she was leaving him last year

She adds: 'Out of the blue he asks me what my plans are? I can't believe it. Giampaolo has done brilliantly.

‘I tell him all about my building plan and the bureaucratic problems. I tell him how hard it is for a girl.'

Ms D'Addario also describes how Berlusconi then showed a series of films lasting more than two hours showing him at various events and even one of him with his wife Veronica Lario, 53, who is now divorcing him.

Then the film switches to one of Berlusconi at a rally and everyone in the room joins in the party anthem ‘Meno Male Silvio C'e’ (Thank goodness for Silvio).

Ms D'Addario adds: 'In the room where the party is the young girls are try their best to get as close to Berlusconi. He goes from girl to girl, cuddling them and they all cuddle him.

'The premier needs cuddles. Being an escort I thought I had seen a lot of things but this I hadn't, twenty girls for just one man.

‘The usual orgies have the same amount of men and women otherwise it's difficult to distribute pleasure.'

Ms D'Addario then describes how Berlusconi invites her to dance then ‘kisses me on the lips and whispers sweet nothings in my ear in front of everyone.’

She adds how Berlusconi then invites her to stay and after wavering then takes her on a tour of the building which eventually ends up in his bedroom.

Ms D'Addario writes: 'The room is massive and light but what draws my attention is a beautiful bed in the middle surrounded by white drapes and a very sift duvet.'

Berlusconi then tells her that ‘Putin gave it to me’ before then describing how the two lesbians and another girl have joined them and they begin massaging his feet.

Ms D'Addario in another extract dated November 4th 2008, the night of Barack Obama's US presidential victory, again describes Berlusconi's bedroom.

She writes: 'I will take care of your project,' says the premier. 'Your life will change, you have already suffered enough, you need a hand and you deserve it.

'It's all taped. (Extracts were released in the summer) The premier was very gentle with me, affectionate. At time he seems like a boy in an amusement park.

'The room is dark, he likes being in the dark. I finish taking a shower first and I find myself in this enormous room. All of a sudden he comes in and I jump.

'He is dressed all in white and he looks like a ghost. White silk pajamas and a white dressing gown.'

In the tapes released in the summer Ms D'Addario praises Berlusconi for his love making and he adds that she should 'touch yourself more when making love.'

Gradisca is also the name of the lead lady in Federico Fellini's sex comedy Amarcord who in the 1973 film, is encouraged to bed a Fascist official in return for government funds to rebuild the local harbour.

Yesterday no-one was available for comment at Berlusconi's office, while he was in Qatar on an official visit.

He has denied knowing Ms D'Addario.  He admits women he did not know were escorts who were invited to parties he hosted.

Ms Lario announced last April that she was leaving her media tycoon husband because she could no longer be with a man who ‘associated with minors and who was ill.’

Mr Berlusconi, who has lost his immunity from prosecution on two counts of corruption, could face further charges after a convicted Mafia hitman told magistrates that he had been the political protector of a Cosa Nostra godfather in the 1990s.

Gaspare Spatuzza, who became a pentito (turncoat) last year, told magistrates that the godfather, Giuseppe Graviano, had told him in 1994 — the year that Mr Berlusconi entered politics by founding Forza Italia — that his ‘political protectors’ were Mr Berlusconi and Marcello Dell’Utri, the Sicilian co-founder of Forza Italia. Mr Dell’Utri was sentenced for ‘Mafia association’ in 2004 but remains a Senator unless definitively convicted.

Spatuzza is due to give evidence on December 4 at Mr Dell’Utri’s appeal. Mr Dell’Utri dismissed the allegations as ‘melodrama, nonsense, which, fortunately, still make me laugh’.
