Véronique Jannot, “saddened” because of Alain Delon

Alain Delon is in turmoil: his three children, Anthony Delon, Anouchka Delon and Alain-Fabien Delon, are tearing each other apart. This complicated situation worries those close to the actor, in particular Véronique Jannot. “I am deeply saddened by the harm done to him today. It is unbearable for me to think that the privacy of a man as dignified, secretive and modest as Alain Delon is thus thrown out to pasture,” she explained in an interview for Gala.

The 66-year-old actress is all the more tormented as she has not had contact with the actor for several years: “I don’t know how he’s doing, I haven’t spoken to him on the phone for maybe three years but I only hope one thing: that he doesn’t come to his senses and that he doesn’t doesn’t realize this media coverage which sullies his name and spoils his last years. He really doesn’t deserve this.

Was Véronique Jannot in a relationship with Alain Delon?

In 1979, the two actors met on the set of the film Doctor. Despite her uterine cancer and against the advice of doctors, Véronique Jannot wants to play in this film. “He knew me at one of the most difficult times of my life. I was in the middle of chemotherapy, I felt like nothing,” confided the actress. At the time, although she did not wish to reveal her illness to him, Alain Delon ended up discovering it.

“He only found out during filming, and he was wonderful, just pretending like nothing had happened. I feel eternal gratitude to him,” she remembered. Did she have a love affair with Alain Delon? “No way. Everyone believed it but no“, she replied on the set of TPMP People in 2023.

Véronique Jannot shared the life of Formula 1 driver, Didier Pironi, who tragically died during a boat race. She was then in a relationship with singer Laurent Voulzy for ten years. Having become sterile due to her cancer, she adopted Migmar in 2014, a teenage Tibetan orphan, who is now the apple of her eye.
