The interview with Anouchka Delon was most anticipated since January 7, 2024, and the publication on Instagram of a damning recording of Alain Delon’s daughter. Accused of taking advantage of her weakened father, the young actress told her whole truth to ELLE magazine. And this February 22, 2024, while she talks about her brothers, Alain-Fabien and Anthony Delon, Anouchka admits that she can no longer bring herself to call them her “brothers”.
“We are compared to Hallyday“
And for good reason, she says: “I can’t say that word anymore. A brother doesn’t tell the newspapers that you’re a venal witch, it doesn’t record you without your knowledge in your kitchen.” HASWhen in 2017, after the death of Taulier Johnny Hallyday, France looked into another family saga, Anouchka Delon deplores : “We are compared to the Hallydays. They, at least, had the decency to wait until their father and husband had left to tear themselves apart.”
As Laura Smet was able to do on one side, like Laeticia Hallyday on the other, during months of legal battle around the rocker’s legacy, Anouchka Delon in turn responds to her brothers. And she assures: “I’ve had enough. I’m modest, but it’s time I stood up for myself. I’ve always been nice to them, tried to be the Super Glue of this family. But I can’t let them mess with me.”.
Alain Delon being a man of stature like Johnny Hallyday, she declared: “My brothers demolish the image of my father, they post photos of him diminished on social networks, which he would not want to be broadcast. We think in particular of this indiscretion on Johnny Hallyday’s cancer which had been published from Laura Smet’s Instagram account a few months before her death, and which the actress had put down to hacking…
But the comparison with the Hallydays does not stop there. A few weeks ago, remember, Jade and Joy Hallyday agreed to a marathon of interviews before the inauguration of the exhibition dedicated to their dad, in Paris. And Laeticia Hallyday’s daughters had pointed out a jealousy that they imagined in their elders, while Johnny had been a very present father for them.
“Now that he’s diminished, they’re coming after me“
Being Alain Delon’s favorite daughter, Anouchka Delon takes responsibility for it, but also explains that she is not responsible for it. She specifies: “I know that my father, with the childhood he had, did not know how to deal with his sons. I witnessed violent scenes when we were children. I was there, I was a child too. I understand the pain. I have often tried to intervene. I believe that my father knew how to be Alain Delon better than he knew how to be himself. I don’t blame him, he did what he could. But I don’t have to pay for that. Anthony and Alain-Fabien never had the courage to face it face to face. Now that it’s diminished, they’re coming after me. Getting revenge on a woman is easier. Ultimately, it’s all a matter of ego.”. Enough to lead the fraternal fight on a now more… feminist terrain.
