In 2019, at the age of 84, Alain Delon couldn't help but feel emotional, admitting that he had already lived a colorful life, and even had already chosen an ideal resting place for himself, and successfully applied for a well-prepared funeral permit.
The legendary screen superstar seems to be fully and thoughtfully prepared for the end of his life.
However, in the same year, Alain Delon won the prestigious Palme d'Or at the 72nd Cannes International Film Festival, which is undoubtedly the highest recognition and praise for his outstanding achievements in his brilliant life.
However, shortly after the unprecedented awards ceremony ended, a man who claimed to be Alain Delon's illegitimate son, El Boulogne, took Alain Delon to court with a complaint.
El Boulogne alleges that from the moment he fell to the ground, Alain Delon never fulfilled his duties as a father.
Faced with the sudden accusations, Alain Delon appeared a little helpless, saying he was extremely shocked and angry about the incident.
However, it is speculated that El Boulogne's birth year was around 1962, coinciding with the marriage of Alain Delon and Romy Schneider. The man, who claimed to be the illegitimate son of Alain Delon, undoubtedly pushed Alain Delon to the forefront of the trial of public opinion.
Let's go back in time to the 60s of the last century. That year, a German model named Nicole publicly announced on the cover of the well-known magazine ELLE that the baby in her arms was none other than Alain Delon's illegitimate child.
In the photo, Nicole is wearing a Chanel suit, wearing luxury jewelry, and holding a cute child in her arms, which seems to be a Chanel commercial. However, Nicole reveals that this is the crystallization of her love with Alain Delon.
In the face of this sudden accusation, Alain Delon was obviously a little powerless and looked flustered. He said he was shocked by the incident, as if he had been completely kept in the dark.
Nicole's explosive remarks caused an uproar in French society, and the public accused Alain Delon of blatant childbearing with others who are already engaged in marriage and have children is really moral.
The German people are even more indignant, they were already angry that Alain Delon took away the feelings of the goddess in their hearts, Romy Schneider, and now they are even more angry.
There is no doubt that the pain that Romy suffered at that time was deep in her bones! She had not been afraid to condescend to lower her status, because she thought she had complete insight and understanding of Alain, and yet, to her shock, Alain was a true wanderer!
The news spread like a flood to the whole of Hollywood, and became the focus of people's heated discussions after dinner.
Nicole did not come from a humble background, she used to be an exclusive model for the Chanel brand when she was younger, and her future is in full swing. In 1961, at the age of 23, Nicole co-starred with actor Alain Delon in the movie "Sunny", and the two collided with sparks of love during filming.
At that time, Nicole was the shining pearl of Chicago, a collection of appreciation and love from all walks of life. However, no one expected that this proud girl who was surrounded by many fans would fall into a scandal with the poor actor Alain Delon? Fans expressed their disbelief, they couldn't imagine how Nicole could fall in love with a poor boy from such a humble background as Alain.
If Nicole had been humble and cautious, perhaps her reputation would not have deteriorated. It's a pity that she took her children to the cover of the magazine to hype it up, trying to improve her status as a way to improve herself, but she didn't expect Alain to care about it.
Since then, she has been labeled as a "rebellious girl" and a "beat girl".
Although Nicole later became a high-profile rock singer, in that era, the status of rock singers was not prominent. She lacks the support of real musical works, and is unwilling to create steadily, trying to win sympathy by selling miserably, but ignoring how precious the tears of the audience are.
As time goes on, Nicole gradually begins to live a so-called "bohemian" laid-back life, which seems to be full of romance, but in fact it is a true portrayal of life's embarrassment.
Alain Delon's mother recalls that Nicole left her home with her son and wandered around, and her health was once extremely bad, thin as a skeleton, and the signs of malnutrition were clearly visible.
For two years, Nicole failed to see her son, Al. The long-awaited reunion finally arrived, but when Nicole reappeared in front of Alain's mother, she only gave Al a regular orange as a "surprise".
Alain's mother had a hard time recognizing the beautiful woman in front of her, because at this moment she seemed to have lost her soul, and numbly took out a syringe from her backpack, almost causing a catastrophic accident, which was terrifying!
Nicole's wayward and excesses were undoubtedly severely criticized by her teammates. They criticized in unison that Nicole was too egoistic and put her personal interests above the interests of her children.
Back in 1988, Nicole and Al were enjoying a wonderful vacation time in Spain, however, the unexpected happened - Nicole had a heart attack, fell off her bike, received a blow to the head, and fell into a deep coma.
Although she was rushed to the hospital, she died at the age of 50 due to massive intracranial hemorrhage.
In this way, the young mother leaves this world forever, leaving Al alone at the age of 26 to face an unknown future.
In the last months of her life, Nicole wrote a letter to Alain's 77-year-old mother, asking the dying elder to take care of her grandson, Al. However, her wish was never fulfilled.
Alain is adamant and cold towards Nicole and Al, and would rather not see his biological mother for 18 years than see Al.
We can't help but wonder why Alain is ruthless to his own son, Al, when it comes to other people's children, Alain shows the opposite of tenderness.
In 1982, Alain's former lover, Romy Schneider, died suddenly of a myocardial infarction. After learning the news, Alain, who was over sixty years old, rushed to the scene without hesitation, personally dealt with the aftermath of Romy, and waited by the coffin for three days and three nights, explaining with practical actions what it means to never leave.
At the age of 14, Romy's eldest son, David, was also tricked by fate and experienced a tragic car accident that not only lost his life, but also left his mother, Romy, grief-stricken.
At that time, even though Alain and Romy had been separated for many years, he still stepped up and helped Romy properly deal with David's aftermath.
Alain's selfless dedication to David has forced people to re-examine the deep affection he has for his children. However, when this affection translates into treatment of his own son, Anthony, Alain's doting becomes even more unscrupulous.
The remarkable Anthony was born in the midst of the glamorous marriage between his radiant father Alain and his second wife, Natalie Delon. Although Anthony's mother once stepped into the quagmire of extramarital affairs, which brought indelible humiliation and heartache to Alain, Alain, a deep and loving father, never poured this deep hatred out on his son Anthony.
On the contrary, Alain did not hesitate to take on the responsibility of raising his son, even at the cost of it.
Some critics have pointed out that when facing other people's children, Alain shows unprecedented tenderness. However, when it comes to Al, who claims to be his illegitimate son, Alain's attitude is like a different person, avoiding Al and his mother Nicole, and is as ruthless as an enemy.
What is the reason why Alain, who has always been full of tenderness and affection for his children, has such great prejudice and cynicism towards Al? This undoubtedly makes the outside world feel extremely puzzling and confused.
Until many years after the death of Alain Delon, the turmoil caused by the illegitimate child has not subsided, and the truth is confusing, and the twists and turns of right and wrong are complicated.
In 2004, Al published a personal memoir titled "Love That Will Never Be Forgotten", in which he tearfully accused Alain of his indifference and neglect to him and his mother Nicole.
The book depicts in detail the first encounter between Nicole and Alain at the Academy for Performing Arts, and their passionate revelry that night, which eventually gave birth to the miracle of Al's life.
Al fondly recalls that her mother, Nicole, was originally just a pure and kind girl, and it was Alain, a suave man, who transformed her from an ignorant little girl to a mature and resilient woman.
Shockingly, Al boldly revealed that Nicole was pregnant with his illegitimate child overnight. As soon as the news broke, the parents and stepfather in Germany were extremely disappointed and even expelled Nicole from the house.
Alain, for his part, also fought back fiercely in his memoirs, and his lawyer published an article in the newspaper, accusing Al of having a weak personality and having no resemblance to Alain, and believing that all of Al's actions were senseless lies.
In the face of the bickering between the two sides, Al did not flinch.
Alain's rage stems from Al's unexpected appearance. Although Alain was over the age of sixteen at the time, in his eyes, Al's actions were like a blatant tear off his fig leaf, a wanton trampling on his dignity, and making him feel deeply unbearable humiliation.
However, Al did not buy it, and he was convinced that if he was really a liar, how could his mother, who was Alain, tolerate him being raised by his grandmother for more than ten years?
