His daughter, Anna Guarini was murdered by her husband, Ercole Trotti, with the assistance of one of the poet's own sons.

 ANNA GUARINI - Biography
Anna Guarini was the daughter of the Ferrarese court poet and secretary, Giambattista Guarini, and Taddea Bendidio, the sister of Lucrezia Bendidio, Contessa Macchiavelli.

Bitterness for the Guarini family was compounded by the fact that Trotti, who had been condemned to death in his absence, was granted a reprieve by Cesare d'Este, the new Duke of Modena; he subsequently was given increased status and honour at court.
