egendary French actor Alain Delon is "getting better and better", one of his sons has assured fans, after the 83-year-old suffered a stroke. 

Posting a photo of the actor, known for his starring roles in films such as The Swimming Pool and Purple Noon, on his Instagram account late Sunday, Alain-Fabien Delon thanked his father's fans for their support.

"Thank you for your many messages, which have deeply touched me. As you can see, he is getting better and better. And he sends you his love," the post said, with a picture of the actor sitting up, wearing a red polo shirt and smiling.
