Throw your wedding ring in Seine Tamberi tells wife after losing his

(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 28 - Italy's defending Olympic high jump champion Gianmarco Tamberi has invited his wife to throw her wedding into the River Seine after he lost his in it during Friday's opening ceremony for the Paris 2024 Games.
    "I think there could be a huge poetic side to the mishap and, if you want, we will throw yours into that river too so that they will be together forever," the 32-year-old, who was Italy's male flag-bearer at the opening ceremony, wrote in an Instagram post.
    "And we will have one more excuse, as you have always asked me, to renew our vows and get married again".
    He also apologised to his wife, Chiara Bontempi, after losing the ring while waving the flag during the parade on the Seine.
    "I'm sorry my love, I'm so sorry," he said.
    "Too much water, too many kilos lost in the last few months or maybe the irrepressible enthusiasm of what we were doing.
    "Probably all three. The fact remains that I felt it slip off.
    "It will remain forever on the river bed of the city of love.
    "May it be a good omen to return home with a bigger gold".
