It was a striking message in ‘Le Figaro’. In an emotional and candid letter, Depardieu proclaimed his innocence after being repeatedly accused of sexual assault and rape. He immediately said that he was extremely shocked by the continued media attention surrounding his person. ‘I can no longer accept what I hear and read about myself. It touched me deeply,” he wrote.
Since then, there has been no trace of the actor, leading to all kinds of rumors and theories. His participation in a theater festival in La Teste-de-Buch was canceled without explanation, leaving room for speculation. “Gérard Depardieu has been unreachable for fifteen days. Those who know him well think he is abroad,” Patrick Davet, the mayor of the municipality, told ‘Sud Ouest’. “Olivier Marchal (a fellow French actor, ed.) cannot reach him, not even Catherine Deneuve (also an actress, ed.), his girlfriend.”
The ‘whereabouts’ of the French film legend cause a stir in the community. The regional press speculates that the sexual abuse allegations “may have contributed to his decision to withdraw from public life.” Only time will tell whether that statement is correct.”
