Further, he talked about his four-year-long sabbatical and shared, “At the age of 55, I took a kind of sabbatical. During the pandemic, there was nothing else to do, and I was telling everyone: learn Italian cooking and work out. I was working out. I built a body. After four years, people started missing me because before that I was too much in everybody’s face.”
