Jessica Chastainhas a thriving life on-camera and off.
The actress put a lot of work into her craft and studied at Sacramento City College, American Academy of Dramatic Arts, as well as The Julliard School.
She has had a successful decades-long career in entertainment, and most recently starred in blockbuster movies such as Dreams, Mothers’ Instinct, Memory, The Eyes of Tammy Faye and much more.
Outside of her booming career in the arts, she is happily married to Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo, and has two children. Learn all about her family life below.
Who is Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo?
Gian was raised in Carbonera, Italy, and he moved to Milan when he was 18 years old in pursuit of a fashion career.
Despite the country’s aristocracy being diminished in 1946, had it continued today, Gian would have been a Count, being that his father was Count Alberto Passi de Preposulo. In fact, his family’s aristocratic roots date back to 973, believe it or not.
Gian himself doesn’t pay attention to the title, whether existent or dissolved, explaining to Vanity Fair: “It’s not the title that’s important—you have to be a count inside yourself.”
He has his own prosecco brand called Fiol, which he launched in 2010 with two of his childhood friends. Gian is also the proud chairman of the Red Bull Italy SailGP Team.
Gian currently works for Moncler, where he focuses on events and celebrity clients. Prior to that, he worked public relations for Armani.

She revealed to Entertainment Tonight: “I love bringing families on set. We had a trailer that was for children, and how wonderful that, yes we can be successful and wonderful at our work, but we can also not have to shut down part of our life in order to do so.”
