Alain Delon is one of the greatest actors in French cinema and was at the head of a large fortune. However, the Leopard did not live like a king, but rather like a hermit, according to Evelyne Boudet. Romy Schneider’s ex-partner was indeed very attached to his little habits. “It was
old fashionedall paneled. Paintings, all over the paneling. An old rug under the pool table, the same old TV for ten years. But there were coffee percolators, just like in Parisian cafes. And in his room,
nothing but rifles“said the former employee of Alain Delon.

“He kept everything, photos, stones, objects made by children, drawings, baby clothes. For the housework, it was hell. I didn’t have to move anything. One day, on a table, I wanted to tidy up in my own way…
Woe!” she confided.
