Alain Delon’s children have filed a complaint against Hiromi Rolin, the 87-year-old actor’s “lady-in-waiting”, for “moral harassment”. Alain Delon, who joined the complaint, had previously presented her as his “companion”…
[Updated July 5, 2023, 6:54 p.m.] She has been considered Alain Delon’s “lady-in-waiting” for a few months and the 87-year-old actor had the opportunity to introduce her as his “companion”. Hiromi Rolin, 60, is the target of a complaint by the Delon children for “moral harassment”, AFP reported on Wednesday July 5.
This Japanese woman, who has shared the actor’s life for several years, has managed to bind the actor’s three children, Anthony, Anouchka and Alain-Fabien Delon, against her. The trio’s lawyer, Me Christophe Ayela, told the news agency that he also suspected “an abuse of weakness”, while Alain Delon has been greatly diminished for several years now.
Hiromi Rolin risks, for “moral harassment” within the couple, a sentence of three years in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros. She is also accused by the Delon family of “misappropriation of correspondence” for having opened, deleted, delayed or diverted according to them letters addressed to the actor or posted by the actor to third parties, indicates their lawyer. Alain Delon would have associated himself with the complaint, his son Anthony said.
We still know little about the career and personality of Hiromi Rolin, the source of the complaint. To avoid loneliness, Alain Delon would have been “resigned” for a few years to the company of this unknown “medical assistant”, can we read in a press release from Anthony Delon, published in the press.
In a documentary on the actor broadcast in 2021 on TV5 Monde, Alain Delon himself presented the “lady-in-waiting” as his “Japanese companion, Hiromi”. A woman who, according to him, had been “very present at [his] side throughout [s] his recovery”, following his stroke in 2019. The couple had been observed again last May, at the preview of a film by Alain-Fabien Delon.
Hiromi Rolin was kicked out of Alain Delon’s residence in Douchy, Loiret, at the end of June, AFP still indicates. “The situation in two years has taken on such proportions that my father himself finally asked on June 27 in writing that Ms. Hiromi Rolin leave her residence definitively,” said Anthony Delon in a press release.
Anthony, Anouchka and Alain-Fabien Delon’s complaint for “moral harassment” was accompanied by a press release from their lawyer, Me Christophe Ayela. According to him, Hiromi Rolin would have shown herself over the months “more and more aggressive, denigrating and abusive towards him, and towards his children”, trying “to isolate Alain Delon from his relatives, his friends , and his family, using maneuvers and threats”.
“She systematically controls his telephone conversations and his private messages. She answers in his place, pretending to be him, she tries to intercept his postal mail. She prevents his children from coming to see him regularly, as they have nevertheless always done”, listed Me Christophe Ayela.
Anthony Delon also indicated that he had added to the collective complaint for “moral harassment” a second complaint for “willful violence on a vulnerable person”, “abuse of weakness”, “sequestration on a vulnerable person” and “violence on an animal”, the Alain Delon’s dog having been, according to him, the target of acts of mistreatment.
Anthony Delon says he has listed “for a year and a half” many facts to support the procedure. An argument with Hiromi Rolin at Alain Delon’s birthday party in early 2022 was, according to him, a trigger. Hiromi Rolin and eldest child Delon were at odds over a fall, requiring stitches and hospitalization. “At this precise moment, I became aware of an abnormal situation which was going, I was convinced, to deteriorate over time”, he writes.
