Actor Alain Delon sent a message to his fans through a photo shared on his daughter’s profile with the words, “Don’t worry.” Anushka Delon shared on Instagram a shot with her 88-year-old father, “her immortal”. The photo was uploaded with her father’s knowledge, she says.
“I took a picture of my dad on Friday morning – writes Anoushka Delon. – For me, as a memory of our moments. Having breakfast with him, I feel infinite gratitude. A unique moment of sweetness in my beast world.
I found it beautiful. With his eternal steel blue gaze, alive, like a fighter, giving me unimaginable strength. My own immortal.
I showed him the picture, he found it beautiful, so beautiful that I asked him if I could share it with you, his audience who are worried about him. So with his consent, here it is. And to your worries he answers: “Don’t worry.”
The actor, an icon of French cinema with roles in more than 90 films, rarely appears in public and is on the mend after suffering a stroke five years ago. Meanwhile, his children are involved in a drama worthy of a Shakespeare plot – Antony, Alain-Fabien and Anoushka try to divide their legendary father’s legacy. The three accused each other of abusing Delon’s failing health and publicly disclosed private information about his condition, including questioning his cognitive abilities.
Delon lives with Anushka, his daughter from his relationship with Rosalie van Bremen. According to his wishes, she should receive half of his wealth and his two sons should share the other half. However, Antony and Alain-Fabien insisted to the media that it was not about the inheritance and claimed that Anoushka was covering up their father’s true fortune to take advantage of his wealth.
