Dancer ‘in love’ with Concordia captain

The Moldovan dancer involved in the Costa Concordia disaster has told Italian investigators that she was “in love” with the captain, as it emerged her lingerie was found in his cabin.

Domnica Cemortan, 25, said she was on the bridge moments before the vessel hit rocks.

She was interviewed by prosecutors for nearly six hours in a police station in Grosseto, Tuscany.
