Alain Delon is considered a sex symbol of the 20th century and the epitome of male beauty. Fans awarded him this popular title for his striking facial features, impeccable manners, and boundless charm. Each new role he took on only reinforced his status, and he has appeared in over a hundred films.
But nothing lasts forever. This November, the icon will turn 89. Five years ago, he suffered a stroke that triggered the onset of Alzheimer’s disease.
The severe illness has caused a rift among his children. His elder son, Anthony, from model Nathalie Barthelemy, and his brother, Alain-Fabien, from model Rosalie van Breemen, believe that their father should be declared incapacitated and that the inheritance should be divided.
However, his daughter, Anouchka, strongly disagrees. The situation is complicated by the fact that Anouchka is the appointed guardian of Alain Delon.
The heiress conducted cognitive tests which showed that Delon is far from being a frail old man.
Recently, she shared a new photo of her father at the barber’s. While the barber trims his beard, the celebrity looks into the mirror with a clear and aware gaze, evidently assessing his appearance.
Anouchka likes to accompany her father’s photos with encouraging captions:
“Delon will always be Delon. Always looking good. Always impeccable. Always elegant. Like a fine wine. Eternally magnificent.”
