Leo Sayer falls in love with Donatella Piccinetti at first sight

In 2021, Sayer and Piccinetti get candid about their relationship on the Johnnie and Tiggy Walker Consciously Coupling podcast.

The now-married couple first met back in the year 1984 when Piccinetti had recently moved to London from her native Italy. At the time, the new bride worked as a hostess at an Italian restaurant whereas Sayer was a customer.

She recalled,

“I could see this guy looking at me and not eating… so I went up to them and said, ‘Is everything OK? And he said, ‘Yeah. Who are you anyway?’ And then people, they were sitting around the bar, they said, ‘Oh, do you know who that is?’ I said no. ‘Oh, that’s Leo Sayer.’ I knew his songs, I realized after, but I didn’t know who he was.”
