The iconic French actor Alain Delon, once hailed as one of the most handsome men in Hollywood, passed away at 88 in August 2024. After suffering a stroke in 2019, Delon lived a reclusive life at his sprawling estate, La Brûlerie, located near Douchy-Montcorbon, France. Known for his striking looks and memorable roles, including in “Purple Noon,” Delon had been living away from the limelight following his stroke.
Before his death, Delon was embroiled in a public feud among his children over his estate. His daughter, Anouchka, shared a heartfelt tribute to him on Instagram, describing him as “handsome” with a “vivid” spirit. Despite their disputes, his children united to manage his care and finances, requesting reinforced curatorship in April 2024. Delon’s legacy, marked by both his cinematic achievements and personal struggles, remains deeply etched in the hearts of his admirers.
