Overview

• Filed in Paris, the action seeks to annul a 24 November 2022 testament and a 22 February 2023 donation that concentrated moral-rights control and image-related stakes with Anouchka Delon.
• Anouchka, Anthony, and the three executors of the estate, including Me Christophe Ayela, were named in the case, according to confirmation provided to AFP.
• The contested acts include a Swiss will designating Anouchka as sole holder of Alain Delon’s droit moral and a transfer of 51% of ADID, the company managing his brand and image.
• A first civil case management hearing is scheduled for 9 March 2026 at the Tribunal judiciaire de Paris, while the broader succession remains unresolved.
• Alain‑Fabien does not challenge the 2015 will splitting assets 50% to Anouchka and 25% to each son, with the estate widely estimated near €50 million and a tax reassessment still pending; a related paternity appeal ruling is due 25 September in Poitiers, and Ayela has called for mediation.
