Maria Villani Scicolone (born Maria Villani;[1] 11 May 1938) is an Italian former actress and the younger sister of actress Sophia Loren..

The former wife of Romano Mussolini (26 September 1927 – 3 February 2006), the youngest son of Benito Mussolini, by whom she had two daughters, Villani divorced Romano and remarried, to heart surgeon Magid Tamiz in 1977.[2] She is the mother of Italian politician Alessandra Mussolini (born 30 December 1962).
