Alain Delon: The Last “Good-bye” to French Zen Premier

The last “good-bye” said this afternoon (24.08.2024), relatives, friends and admirers at the “good-looking cinema”. The funeral of the French Zen premier Alain Delon, was held at his cottage in La Brûlerie, only 40 persons invited by his family. Although the funeral took place under extreme secrecy, it was revealed that his 66-year-old companion Hiromi Rollin was not invited by the actor’s family. His children had even removed her from the family home in July 2023. Outside Alain Delon’s estate, countless fans gathered to write in the book of condolence and leave him flowers. The fans were so many that French police had to set up roadblocks. Air space closed for the entire weekend. The photographs appear to be sitting outside the French actor’s cottage, deeply moved. Some cry, others leave flowers and some try to gather “powers” in the shade. The lens caught both the sons Anthony and Alain, the moment they were leaving their home. In some photographs they seem to wear a white shirt and with sadness in their eyes saluting their father’s fans. In other frames it seems Anthony’s son, looking at all the flowers, candles and teddy bears left by fans, on the bars of the great actor’s cottage. The favorite actor died on August 18 at the age of 88. He had asked for no national tribute when he left this world, insisting on being buried “like anyone else”. The second wish Alain Delon had was to be buried in the chapel of his cottage where his 35 dogs had already been buried. The municipality accepted the request. His third wish which was not accepted involved his dog “Lubo”. Zen premier had asked that “Lubo” be killed and that hugs be buried. In hearing this news, animal lovers and activists reacted with the result that Alain Delon’s family announced that Lubo would not be killed. Photos: Associated Press
