Ethan Torchio Was in a Committed Relationship

Ethan Torchio appears to have no current partner. However, in a recent interview, he revealed that he was once engaged "a long, long time ago." However, he has since adopted a different perspective.

He also described himself as happily single and believes that experiencing love freely has made it more beautiful. However, he has desires for the future that are beyond love. He said:

"But I come from a very large family, it leads me to intensively want a family in the future; it will take a person I have to feel comfortable with to share anything about myself."

While he envisions a long-lasting relationship in the future, for now, he is focused on enjoying life and having fun. His openness can be traced back to his upbringing, where he absorbed a valuable lesson from his parents at a tender age – the importance of self-belief.

The musician, known for his signature long hair, reminisced about having long locks at the age of 11. Consequently, he found himself labeled as a "weirdo" by some of his peers.

Despite being seen as different, his parents encouraged him to make choices that made him happy, as long as they didn't harm others. This helped him overcome his fear of fitting in and embrace his unique path. He also talked about facing fears in his childhood.

At 13, Torchio developed a passion for electronic music, and by the time he turned 15, he joined Måneskin after successfully auditioning through a Facebook post.

He used the phrase "preparing my waltz with the devil" to describe following one's path, which includes sacrifices and challenges. He explained that facing fears turns them into strengths, allowing you to embrace them rather than fear them.
