  • Cinema The deterioration of Alain Delon's health sparks a family war

French actor

Alain Delon

, who at 88 suffers from serious

health problems

, has been placed

under judicial protection

amid disputes between his children over the best way to safeguard their interests.

A judge responsible for the protection of people made the decision and appointed a

guardian of the interests of the legendary interpreter

, the BFM channel reported this Monday, which specified that the decision was communicated this morning to the actor's family.

The mission of the guardian, whose

identity has not been revealed

, will be focused on medical monitoring of Delon and the choice of specialists who care for him.

As a general rule, people placed under this protection can

legally carry out numerous acts on their own,

but not those of certain importance, such as the sale of properties, which are supervised by the figure of the guardian.

The court decision follows several weeks of

disputes between the actor's three children

, Anthony, Anouchka and Alain-Fabien, who have even exchanged legal complaints between them.

The two children reproach Anouchka for

wanting to take their father out of the

Douchy residence (south of Paris) to take him to Switzerland, where she lives.

With these lawsuits filed between them and a string of

accusations crossed in the media

, the actor's heirs exposed the family's internal quarrels.

The eldest of them, Anthony, was the first to open fire when he accused his stepsister of having

hidden information from them about the true state

of their father's health, an argument that was also supported by the youngest, Alain-Fabien, brother of his father and mother. the middle one, Anouchka.

The young woman, who according to the will

will receive half of the inheritance

, while her brothers will share the rest, has always been her father's favorite, as he himself revealed throughout his life.

Resident in Switzerland, he intends to take the actor there so that, after his death,

he is not declared a tax resident in France

, which would increase the bill to obtain his part of the legacy, according to Anthony, who together with Alain-Fabian assures that the

will of the actor is to die in the residence

that he had built in Douchy, near the Loire.

Previously and last year, the three children

were united in a legal action against Hiromi Rollin

, a woman who began as their assistant on filming and later assumed more responsibilities.

The three heirs of the actor feared that Rollin, who was the one who spent the most time with him,

wanted to take over his will

and thus take something from his legacy, so they filed that complaint, which a few weeks ago was dismissed by the courts.

In the course of the investigation of this complaint for abuse of weakness, last July, Delon was

subjected to an examination by a doctor

, to whom he confessed: "I want to die, life is over," as revealed last week by the newspaper Le Parisien. .

The doctor noted in his report that the actor had "very weak morale" and that he suffered "a state of physical and mental exhaustion with a significant suicidal risk."

The investigation, which also included the interrogation of other people and the analysis of the actor's and Rollin's phones, determined that

there was no evidence of the accusations presented

by the heirs against the woman.

'The Leopard',

'Pleine soleil', 'Le Samouraï', 'Borsalino', 'The Pool' and 'The Sicilian Clan', He suffered a cerebral vascular accident in 2019 from which he did not fully recover.
