“Even though he wasn't well, I wasn't ready to go through that. His father is still believed to be immortal. I have never mourned, it is a scar that I have learned to live with but which does not heal.”confides the orphan, now 48 years old, in an interview with the magazine

Jacques Villeret: why didn't his son receive his inheritance?
Before dying, Jacques Villeret had wished
bequeath his fortune to his sister Ghislaine. Only, the latter feared to inherit his brother's debts. She had therefore refused the “generous” proposal, just like the rest of the family, including Alexandre Villeret. Ghislaine, however, had to take care of the inheritance whena crook had tried to pass himself off as the half-brother of the deceased.
Alexandre Villeret did not suffer from the affair.
“I didn't care so much that I completely erased myself. I always refused to participate in shows that invited me to talk about it.”he explains to our colleagues. I inherited the moments spent with himof his education, of everything he was. I was lucky to be raised and loved by this man. But what makes me sad is his absence, the fact that he didn't see my children, Nikita and Lola, grow up.”
Jacques Villeret: this fear he had for his adopted son
Jacques Villeret, a little too papa hen? In the same interview, his son Alexandre says he had a father sometimes consumed by anxiety. “He gave me a classical education. I learned respect, to say 'hello', 'thank you', 'goodbye'. He was protective too, he was afraid of everything. So I didn't have not really allowed to go out for fear of being kidnapped“he says again.
The father of Nikita and Lola also remembers having accompanied the star of Dinner for idiots “in the theater, rehearsals and performances”. He continues: “We lived according to his schedule. He worked a lot but he was very family-oriented. We spent the weekends in our country house in Normandy. He liked to get away to rest. We played tennis , we were going fishing.”
