About Chiara Bontempi Tamberi
Chiara Bontempi was born on August 12, 1995 and is aged 28.
For the curious, Chiara Bontempi was born into a family of athletes. Her father, Piergiorgio, was a motorcyclist who competed in the Superbike World Championship.
Chiara herself is passionate about sports, evident from her practically perfect, slim, toned body with well-defined muscles.
On Instagram, Chiara Bontempi once mentioned that she keeps fit with “little exercises.” She follows a routine that includes bodyweight exercises, weights, elastic bands, and running.
As a runner, she performs well, except when sprinting against Gimbo. Chiara often visits Gimbo at the training field.
During the periods leading up to major competitions, Gimbo Tamberi follows an extreme diet that he advises against for others. He manages this strict regimen because he is a constantly monitored athlete.
His ability to adhere to such a diet is also thanks to Chiara’s support and understanding, knowing he can’t indulge in dinners out when competitions are near.
Among Gimbo’s favorite foods are cannoli, while Chiara loves sushi, but these treats are reserved for after they’ve reached their goals.
Chiara Bontempi, his wife for just under two years and his partner for over a decade, is the person the Olympic high jump champion looks for first in the stands to thank after a victory.
