In 2019, when he was 17 years old, Edoardo Santini was voted the most handsome man in Italy.

The young model, with studies in dance and acting, dreamed of a big career on the catwalks.

Now, at 21, he decided to give up modeling for the sake of God and his faith and become a priest.

Sandini revealed on social media that he will renounce his career for his faith and that he has joined a seminary near Florence to become a “god first” cleric.

In fact, in a video shared on his Instagram page last week, shared a clip of himself praying in a church, with the caption: “I’m back on my way.”

Already, on his social media accounts he presents himself as a “Christian”, a future priest”.
