However, extensive publicity appeared without her approval. Born Winifred Shaughnessy, Valentino's second wife, a dancer like her husband, changed her name for acting, and became known as Natalie Guglielmi (she took on Valentino's real surname after their marriage, which lasted from March 14, 1923-January 19, 1926).
