“In fact, my father did not receive the inheritance”specified Laurent de Funès. “They disinherited your daddy”, summed up Jordan De Luxe. “They disinherited him”confirmed his guest. “How could they do that?” asked the host. “They found a way.”replied Laurent de Funès, evoking “legal and other twists and turns”. “I learned that my father had started a trial”revealed the one who preferred “stay away”. He assures that his dad just wanted “to be recognized”. “My father, it was not [pour] money. He was an artist. He didn't give a damn about the money. He said to himself one day: 'I would like there to be moral reparation'he detailed.
