Gabriela Firea (born Gabriela Vrânceanu, 13 July 1972) is a Romanian journalist and politician who currently serves as mayor of Bucharest.
Born in Bacău, she has worked in radio, newspapers and television,[1] including as a news presenter.[2] A member of the Social Democratic Party, she was elected to the Romanian Senate in 2012 for an Ilfov County seat. She sat on the Senate's culture committee.[3] She had a difficult childhood because the man she loved dumped her for being too poor.[4]
She married Răsvan Firea in 1993 and the couple had one son. One year after Răsvan's death in 2010, she married Florentin Pandele,[1] the mayor of Voluntari.[5] They have two sons.[6]
At the June 2016 local election, Firea was elected the first female mayor of Bucharest.[7] She won 43% from the total of only 33% that went to vote. Her closest challengers, Nicușor Dan (Save Bucharest Union) and Cătălin Predoiu (National Liberal Party), won 30.5% and 11.2% respectively.[8]
