“I want to die, life is over”: these are the words that Alain Delon said on July 20 last year during a visit to a general practitioner at the actor's historic residence in Douchy, in the south of France.
The dialogue with Delon, 88 years old, severely weakened after the stroke in 2019, “was difficult and the answers were not very expressive: sometimes he nodded his head or raised his thumb” to confirm information, the doctor testified The newspaper Le Parisien announced this today. The doctor even goes so far as to induce a state of “physical and mental exhaustion with an increased risk of suicide.”
Le Parisien explains that the visit was part of an investigation (now completed) launched by the gendarmes after a complaint of ill-treatment and circumvention of an incompetent person by her children – Anouchka, Anthony and Alain-Fabien – against Hiromi Rollin, 66 , was the actor's assistant for many years, then his self-proclaimed ex-partner.
Also in July, Delon was interviewed by the gendarmes of the Orléans section. According to the documents, the icon of French cinema was “unable to utter complete sentences” even on this occasion. He could not “get up from the chair on his own and moved very slowly and laboriously with the help of crutches.” He would have imitated the gesture of the “middle finger when Hiromi Rollins' behavior was evoked.”
According to the actor, Rollin dreamed of becoming “Madame Delon.” “His biggest failure was the wedding,” said the protagonist of “The Leopard,” explaining that the woman “never stopped” asking him to take her to the town hall to marry her. “I don’t want to see that.” “She’s no longer there,” he allegedly told the gendarmes. In a summary dated December 5, investigators write that Delon “has been in a state of weakness known to all since January 2022” while they await the results of the medical report commissioned in recent days by the French justice system after weeks Media and court disputes between family members. At the beginning of January, her sons Anthony and Alain-Fabien applied for the star to be placed under judicial guardianship in France in the fight against their sister Anouchka. Due to her inability to understand, Anouchka instead wants to take her father to Switzerland, where she lives. In the Delon clan's war, everyone believes they want to protect the patriarch.
Anthony, 59, and Alain-Fabien, 29, claim their father is being manipulated by 33-year-old Anouchka, who is accused of wanting to take him back to Switzerland just to avoid paying too much inheritance tax. He, in turn, accuses the brothers of putting their father's life at risk and assures them that he would enjoy more appropriate medical care in Switzerland than in France. In an interview with the Swiss newspaper Le Matin on January 14, Anthony instead says that his father is far from being left without care, but is “assisted at the Douchy residence by an extremely competent doctor.” “We also have renowned specialists in France,” emphasizes the son. He and his brother Alain-Fabien also say they want to respect their father's wish to end his days in Douchy.
