Biography
Biography
Eva says she does not want sex reassignment surgery, saying she feels comfortable with her body and has no desire to change. Contrary to conflicting mentions, Eva currently does spell her last name with an apostrophe in it. She took her nom de plume from a character in Italy's Diabolik comics, Eva Kant, and writer Harold Robbins. While on holiday in Sardinia, she saw the name "Robbins" spelled as "Robin's" and decided to take on that particular spelling. The friendship with Paolo Villaggio gave her the opportunity to meet Marta Marzotto, Bianca Jagger, Christian Bulgari, and industrialists such as Barilla.
