Jessica Serfaty blasts Ray-Ban heir ex Leonardo Del Vecchio over pregnancy rumors amid alleged smear campaign

The rose-colored glasses are off for model Jessica Serfaty.

After reports claimed that her ex-fiancé, Ray-Ban heir Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio, paid an operative to orchestrate a smear campaign against her, the actress says there is more false info online now — and she suspect Del Vecchio of leaking that too.

Audio recordings obtained by the New York Times allegedly captured crisis operative Jed Wallace discussing efforts to boost the visibility of websites targeting her, including ones by portraying her as a “hooker, liar and a prostitute.”  Del Vecchio allegedly paid Wallace for the alleged smear plot in 2024, the Times reported. (The heir and representatives have not responded to requests for comment about those claims).

Then rumors that Serfaty and Del Vecchio had rekindled their romance and were expecting a child began circulating in August of this year.

When Page Six asked her about the reports, she told us: “Not pregnant. Most definitely not with Leo.”

She later recanted the allegation but this October told the Times she had been pressured to do so and maintained that he had hit her. 

Shortly afterward, the websites and social media accounts appeared describing Serfaty as an “actual prostitute” and a liar, according to the Times.

Serfaty contacted police that same year after discovering an AirTag in her car. The Hollywood Reporter has since unearthed a voice memo in which Wallace discusses the tracking device, claiming he knew police hadn’t found one: “My guys were there,” he said, apparently referring to contacts within the LAPD.

Del Vecchio, whose family fortune is tied to eyewear giant EssilorLuxottica, is also making headlines for a bombshell interview discussing his drug struggles, his strained relationship with his late father and his claim to have slept with more than 2,000 women.

The part-time DJ stepped down as EssilorLuxottica’s chief strategy officer and Ray-Ban president over the summer, but remains embroiled in a bitter family feud over control of the eyewear empire, recently failing to secure family backing for loans to buy out two siblings for roughly $11.2 billion.

Del Vecchio’s love life is as dramatic as his family’s succession battle. Del Vecchio married Anna Castellini Baldissera in Milan in a civil ceremony in 2021 and a religious wedding in Saint-Tropez in 2022, though the marriage ended in divorce the following year. He has a baby named Bianca with model and influencer Sara Soldati. He announced his engagement to Kornelia Ski in February, though the pair seem to have since parted ways.
