He also lived with eight Rottweilers and maintained a collection
of 31 sports cars. Modeling was largely behind him, although he joked that a sufficiently large payday might persuade him to reconsider.
Television remained a possibility. Fabio imagined an updated version of “Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous” centered on extravagant cars, motorcycles, yachts, resorts, islands, and watches.

His Anti-Aging Routine Is as Unusual as His Fame
Fabio has attributed his appearance to habits he followed for decades. He works out six or seven days each week, avoids sugar, and has never smoked or consumed alcohol.
His decision to stay away from drugs and liquor was shaped by tragedy. When Fabio was
16, one of his friends died from a heroin overdose.
Despite being retired, he remained open to returning to television for the right opportunity. In this photo, Fabio Lanzoni attended the debut of Lamborghini’s first super sport utility vehicle, Urus, in Los Angeles, California, on March 8, 2018. | Source: Getty Images

He has also claimed to sleep in a hyperbaric chamber instead of a conventional bed because he believes it reverses aging. That detail may sound tailor-made for a man whose image depended on looking timeless, but Fabio has denied using more familiar cosmetic shortcuts.
In 2021, he confirmed that his trademark hair was natural and said he had never undergone plastic surgery. But he was not sentimentally attached to the long style, despite its importance to fans, and remained open to cutting it.

When Fabio recreated his famous 1993 People cover three decades later in 2024, the similarities were difficult to miss. The same long hair framed his face, while his commitment to fitness remained visible in the new portrait.

One admirer wrote, “Still handsome and living his best life❤️🙌.” Another took a much darker view, commenting, “He became a hermit. What a sad life.”
