The current rules in Italy are that you do not have to wear a mask in the open unless you are near other people (except someone who lives in the same house) or in a closed public space: office, shop, hotel, etc. You can remove the mask in a restaurant or bar provided you maintain social distance, and the service providers must sanitise tables etc
.

A quick search on Mr Google reveals many pictures of her socialising contrary to the rules.
I am of course jumping to the conclusion that the people in that image and the others on t’internet are not all part of her household

Unless I'm missing something, according to the Italian Ministry Of Health this household business doesn't apply to travellers.

I'm not sure exactly what you intend. From the page that you reference there are several mentions of the obligation to wear a mask.

It is mandatory to wear a mask.
Masks must be used in the community setting in closed places that can be accessed by public, including public transport, and all the time when it is not possible to guarantee social distancing. Starting August 17, it is also mandatory to wear a face mask even outdoors, from 6pm to 6am, in all areas where there is a risk of gatherings and assembly.
The use of masks is not required in:
children less than 6 years of age;
disabled people that cannot wear a mask for a long period and their caregivers.
