The battle over Brigitte Bardot's inheritance pits a disinherited husband against an animal welfare foundation
Almost a year after the death of the French film icon, the couple with whom he shared his last 30 years of life has entered into a battle with the organization created by the actress and to which she left her entire estate. Her will will be closed before a notary on November 9, and her son has accepted his mother's last wishes without hesitation.
In France, disputes often arise over the inheritance of wealthy individuals or artists. A recent example is the case of Alain Delon, who died in August 2024, sparking a battle among his three children that has yet to be resolved. A similar dispute has emerged following the death of Brigitte Bardot on December 28 last year, with her partner Bernard d’Ormale and the Brigitte Bardot Foundation, which she founded in 1986 to help animals, contesting her legacy.
