Michael Bonacini is married to his wife Valerie Bonacini for twenty seven years now. 

Michael also expressed his feelings for her and how fortunate he is to have her as a life partner. The couple celebrated their 25th marriage anniversary with a stunning throwback photo from their wedding in 2020.

The ceremony was held at Toronto's Canoe Restaurant. He mentioned that it was the first wedding at that restaurant, which now hosts weddings and events for their clients.

He feels blessed to have met the love of his life and get to spend all these years together. To celebrate the anniversary, husband and wife, along with their son, Oscar Bonacini went to Canoe for dinner.

Many people seemed to recognize Valerie and addressed her as Ms. Pillow, a teacher. She is not active on any social media platforms, making it difficult to gather information about her. Michael's social media posts about his wife give the impression that they are in a very loving relationship.

Michael Bonacini and Valerie Bonacini are blessed with a son, Oscar Bonacini. 

Oscar followed in his father's footsteps and became a chef, hosting a special dining experience at Buffo Calgary in 2019. 

He attended culinary school in Toronto and spend his summer working at a café in Italy.

Oscar was invited to appear as a guest expert on Master Chef Canada to share his expertise in Italian cuisine in 2021. As his son entered the stage that he has been judging for years, Michael shared an emotional moment in front of the camera.

The family was recently on a culinary adventure on a luxurious superyacht cruise. For $8,740, you could join the tour with him and discover more about southern Italian cuisine. 

The tour included dinner on board featuring Chef Bonacini's southern Italian-inspired menu, Bonacini's exclusive cocktail party, a visit to a local Masseria, and many more. 

In an interview, Michael stated that he would put Oscar to work this year and spend time on a cruise with his wife.
