Giorgio Mammoliti Wife Monica Calligaro: Background on Ex-Wife Amid Former Councillor’s Death
Feb. 26, 2026 — Wasaga Beach, Ont. — Former Toronto city councillor Giorgio Mammoliti died at age 64 on Wednesday after an accidental fall at his cottage here, which led to his hospitalization and death at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto. He was survived by his son Christopher Mammoliti, with no current wife mentioned in tributes; Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife, Monica Calligaro, had been his spouse from 2005 until their divorce in 2010.
Mammoliti’s son Christopher stated,
We are obviously devastated and are left with a tremendous void… Dad loved his family, his community and our beautiful city. We respectfully ask for privacy at this time but will be sure to share the viewing information as it becomes available.
Deputy Mayor Mike Colle and Premier Doug Ford also offered condolences, highlighting Mammoliti’s public service career.
Personal Life and Giorgio Mammoliti Wife
Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife Monica Calligaro was married to the politician during a period that overlapped with his tenure as Toronto councillor for Ward 7 York West. Their marriage ended in divorce in 2010, after which financial matters related to Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife became public through court filings and media reports. Wikipedia notes the couple’s union from 2005 to 2010, with Mammoliti also having a son Michael mentioned in earlier contexts.
Recent obituaries focused on his son Christopher and omitted details about Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife (NOW Toronto).
2013 Financial Controversies Tied to Divorce
In 2013, amid ongoing divorce proceedings involving Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife, questions arose over loans Mammoliti received. He had helped real estate investors secure billboard permissions along Highway 401 in 2009, later borrowing about $275,000 from them for companies owned by him and his then ex-wife.
Mammoliti addressed the issue in a statement:
The loans issued were of a personal business matter involving a company owned and operated by my now ex-wife and the repayment of such loans have been dealt with as part of our divorce, which is still ongoing. There was clearly no conflict in my dealings on this matter as a councillor.
(The Globe and Mail, Feb. 15, 2013)
Divorce court filings referenced in reports showed debts exceeding assets, including loans tied to the separation agreement and a second mortgage on their home (CBC News, May 23, 2013). Mammoliti denied conflicts of interest in additional statements (National Post; Toronto.com).
These matters from over a decade ago resurface in reflections on Mammoliti’s life following his death, though recent coverage centers on family tributes without referencing Giorgio Mammoliti’s wife.
