"had an age gap relationship"

LOL, this is literally the least of his crimes. I think the racism, DV, & homophobia is pretty well-known, but denying paternity of his son has to be one of his greatest hits.

The child's mother, the singer Nico, was unable to care for him due to her serious drug addiction, so Alain Delon's mother decided to take him in and raise him herself. Delon told his mom that she had to choose between him or her grandson. She chose to take care of the child who, after all, had no one else in the world and Delon repaid this by not speaking to his mother for 20 years.

I do wonder - when you're this beautiful, does developing a moral compass basically become optional?

Isn't there also a serious dispute among his children about his estate or something? I vaguely remember a post about it in the past where I first learned about the things you summed up and more.

Ah... found the post: https://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/127590221.html
He also had a whole arsenal of fire arms (72) that were seized by police earlier this year. Damn.

The man talked about himself at the third person

A moral compass was not on his agenda

Also, the child was born while he was engaged to Romy Schneider, and Alain remained weirdly obsessed with her all his life

And the son in question is so obviously Delon's kid since he looks more like Delon than all the other kids of his.

Be serious
Anthony exists

Ari was literally Alain’s clone. Anthony looks nowhere near as identical.

Ari doesn't have the Delon lips

If you can’t see which one resembles their father more, then I can’t help you.

Were these pictures supposed to prove you point ? LOL. Besides the lips Ari is all Alain, while Anthony only looks vaguely like him.

Re: Ari doesn't have the Delon lips

[benihime99]

Ari looks like delon in his 40
Anthony looks like his youth

Like I said Alain was dumb because Ari looks a lot like him, he didn't fool anyone

But Anthony moves and talks like him (which makes sense)
In motion it's insane (except having met both, Anthony is a decent guy which Alain was not)

Re: Ari doesn't have the Delon lips

[winonaforever]

I agree that in motion Anthony looks a lot like his father.
