Alain Delon, once renowned as one of the world’s most handsome men, now lives a secluded life at 88, following a stroke in 2019. His seclusion is overshadowed by a bitter feud among his three children over his assets and well-being. Despite his health struggles, Delon’s legacy as a cinematic icon remains strong, with his family frequently in the spotlight due to their public disputes.
Delon resides in his vast estate, La Brûlerie, near Paris, where he expressed a wish to be buried alongside a chapel and a cemetery he built for his beloved dogs. His life took a dramatic turn after receiving an honorary Palme d’Or at Cannes just before his stroke.
His lawyer, Christophe Ayela, has called for peace amidst the family tension. Delon’s relationship with his children is complex, with his admission of favoring his daughter, Anouchka, potentially fueling rivalry with his sons, Anthony and Alain-Fabien, who are also actors. Recently, the children united to place him under reinforced curatorship to manage his affairs responsibly, indicating their ongoing concern for his welfare.
The family’s saga continues to unfold, captivating public attention as they navigate the challenges of preserving Delon’s legacy and managing their personal relationships.
