He had a daughter with his wife, actress Flora Carabella, and a daughter, actress and singer Chiara Mastroianni, with his partner, French actress Catherine Deneuve.
Marcello’s paternal grandparents were named Vincenzo Mastroianni and Concetta Conte.
Marcello’s mother was typically cited in reference books as having been born Ida Irolle.
There is a web rumor that Marcello’s mother was born Ida Idelson, to a Jewish family, in Minsk, Belarus. Genealogy website Geni.com even lists Marcello’s mother as Ida Idelson, from Belarus. It is not clear if this claim is accurate.
