The conflict within the Delon family is far from over, with new accusations and mutual complaints. Alain Delon, the 88-year-old film icon, finds himself at the center of a fratricidal struggle involving his three children.
Anthony Delon a déclenché les hostilités by speaking to Paris Match, accusing his sister Anouchka of lies and manipulations within the family. He also accuses her of hiding crucial medical information about their father from him. In response, Anouchka filed a complaint for defamation, false accusation, threats, and harassment.
The conflict escalated when Anouchka spoke on TF1’s evening news, a moment chosen by Alain-Fabien, the youngest Delon, to post on Instagram a recorded conversation between Anouchka and their father. Those revelations fueled accusations of undue influence over Alain Delon.
At the heart of this dispute, an inheritance issue weighs heavily. Anthony Delon mentioned the will distribution decided by their father, with Anouchka receiving 50% of the inheritance, while her brothers would get 25% each. Financial tensions exacerbated by Alain-Fabien’s difficulties as well as Anouchka’s lifestyle, which her neighbors in Switzerland reportedly find very unpleasant.
Julien Dereims, Anouchka’s husband and father of her son Lino, is also seen as an unwavering supporter of his wife. Resentments and tensions among Delon family members appear to be intensifying, making any reconciliation difficult to imagine.
According to the latest news, Anthony is contesting the medical expert assessment that took place this Saturday, January 13, seeing Anouchka’s influence in it.
For his part, Brigitte Bardot, movie partner and eternal friend of Alain Delon, declared on Twitter, "It’s pathetic mediocrity to tarnish Alain’s image, a sublime icon who represents France with panache!".
