The lovebirds also recorded the iconic hit “Paroles, Paroles” together in the 70s.
Recently for TV Star, Orlando, the brother and former artistic director of Dalida, has confided in this passionate idyll. The main interested parties have long hidden their relationship. “They had met in Paris at their beginnings, in the mid-1950s. They occupied maids’ rooms on the same floor. And they met again in Rome around 1963-1964 and there was a story between them. I was not aware of their idyll”, he explained for our colleagues.
In 2011, Alain Delon agreed to talk about the subject via his book “Les Femmes de ma vie” published by Carpentier. “She came from the Middle East with, as her only baggage, a title of Miss Egypt 1954.

Their breakup was recorded smoothly. “The complicity was intact”, assured the actor who never accepted his disappearance which occurred in 1987. “Dali, it upsets me, because I loved this woman terribly. I suffered so much when she was made to leave… I would have liked to be there, to prevent her from leaving like that. […] She had made up her mind, she didn’t want to go back, she wanted to go.” regretted the actor. “She left very quickly… and I know why”.
