A month after the passing of legendary actor Alain Delon, his daughter, Anouchka Delon, shared a heartfelt tribute on social media. She expressed her grief and longing for their shared moments, noting that the absence of her father is a permanent loss.

Anouchka accompanied her post with rare black-and-white photos of her iconic father, some of which were taken in the final years of his life. Her eldest brother, Anthony Delon, also honored their father’s memory by sharing a photo of his parents.

Alain Delon, who celebrated his 88th birthday in November 2023, had been battling health issues in the years leading up to his death. In January, Anthony Delon revealed that their father had been diagnosed with “slowly progressing lymphoma.” He also accused his sister of concealing their father’s true condition, alleging that Delon had undergone cognitive tests which he had failed.

The family’s grief was further compounded by legal disputes with Hiromi Rollin, Delon’s caregiver. Anthony and Anouchka accused Rollin of causing moral harm to their father, neglecting him, and engaging in aggressive behavior. They also alleged that Rollin had attempted to misuse Delon’s mail and phone for personal gain and had even assaulted his dog.

As the family continues to mourn the loss of their beloved father, they are also navigating the legal complexities surrounding his final years. The allegations against Rollin raise questions about the quality of care Delon received and the challenges faced by families of aging loved ones.
