Yes, it was a real Love Boat.

The mystery woman spotted on the bridge of the Costa Concordia before its disaster told prosecutors she had a “weakness” for the “charming and fascinating” — and married — skipper Francesco Schettino.

“Yes, it’s true. I am in love with Captain Schettino,” Domnica Cemortan, 25, said during six hours of grilling yesterday, Italian media reported.

Passengers saw Cemortan, a former Moldovan ballerina and cruise-ship dancer, laughing and in “high spirits” with Schettino, 52, in the ship’s restaurant just 30 minutes before it ran aground off the island of Giglio, killing 32 people.

Her relationship with Schettino, who has been dubbed “Captain Coward” for his role in the disaster, was unclear before yesterday.

The ship’s purser Manrico Giampedroni said he recalled an unidentified blonde on the bridge at the time of the crash but said he couldn’t remember many details.

“It was dark, and all that I could see was the instruments on the bridge. I remembered I was asked up because we were passing by Giglio,” he said.

Giampedroni, the last person rescued from the Concordia, said of Schettino and the crash, “Maybe at that moment he was distracted.”

Schettino told prosecutors that only authorized personnel were on the bridge. But Cemortan said she was there as “his guest . . . because I was in love with the captain.”

Cemortan had just finished a six-month stint as an “international hostess” on the Concordia and was traveling on her own ticket on the cruise that began Jan. 13.

The Italian ship’s owner said she had not yet checked into her cabin when the disaster occurred.

But investigators revealed yesterday that divers found her lingerie, makeup bag and other items in the captain’s cabin.

Cemortan, one of the first off the crippled ship, reiterated her claim that the captain was a hero because he had saved almost all of the ship’s 4,200 passengers and crew.

“It’s not right to destroy his image. Everyone is ganging up on him,” she told the newspaper La Stampa.
