Enrico Piaggio was the second husband of Paola Antonelli, the widow of the El Alamein commander Colonel Alberto Bechi Luserna. They lived in the Villa Varramista which Piaggio purchased in 1953.
Piaggio's adopted stepdaughter, Antonella Bechi Piaggio, went on to marry in 1959 Umberto Agnelli (they were parents of Giovanni Alberto Agnelli, a director of Piaggio). She remarried in 1974 and became the Duchess Visconti di Modrone.
