Former AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi has passed away aged 86.
The billionaire businessman created Italy’s largest media company before transforming the country’s political landscape – while fending off multiple legal and sex scandals. His spokesman confirmed his death this morning.
He had suffered from leukemia “for some time” and had recently contracted pneumonia. He was admitted to Milan’s San Raffaele Hospital on Friday for what aides said were pre-scheduled tests related to his leukaemia.
Berlusconi’s Forza Italia party is part of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing coalition, and while he played no role in the government himself, his death is likely to destabilize Italian politics in the coming months.
