“You are not my son, you will never be my son”
He was the son of singer Nico, of the group Velvet Underground, who would have fallen pregnant with the cult actor on the set of full sun, in the early 1960s. But the latter never wanted to recognize this child as his, nor to lend himself to DNA tests despite the many steps of the one who had become a photographer. However, the child was raised by Edith, the mother of the “Cheetah” and her second husband, Paul Boulogne who, by adopting him in 1977, gave him his name. Far from his mother living in New York and especially far from the artificial paradises of his rock band, the young man will have a rigorous and loving living environment. Despite everything, he will decide to join his mother and, with her, will fall into heavy addictions which he will have a lot of trouble getting rid of. Against the backdrop of the malaise that disrupted his whole life: the non-recognition of Alain Delon’s paternity. One day in 1986, the latter had told him, as he reported to Thierry Ardisson in his Saturday evening talk Everybody talks about it : “You’re my buddy, you, you’re my buddy. But I’ll tell you something you don’t have my eyes, you don’t have my hair. You are not my son, you will never be my son. I only slept with your mother once”. And “the Samurai”, also the father of three legitimate children (Anthony, 58, Anouchka, 32 and Alain-Fabien, 29) never gave up, refusing any procedure, and taking refuge in Switzerland. For now, an investigation into the causes of the photographer’s death is open, an autopsy has been ordered.
