Gerard Depardieu's son dies of pneumonia
Gerard Depardieu's eldest son has died suddenly of pneumonia.
Guillaume Depardieu, 37, who was a celebrated actor in his own right, died in a Parisian hospital following a severe bout of pneumonia.
The actor had been filming a new movie, L'Enfance d'lcare, in Romania at the weekend when he suddenly fell ill.
Gerard's publicist, Artmedia, said: ' He caught a virus, which gave him a very severe pneumonia. Gerard is devastated.'
Although he was a famous actor in France, Guillaume had a chequered personal life, serving time in jail for drug offences. In 1995, the actor was involved in a serious motorbike accident and had to have a leg amputated.
Five years ago, Gerard and Guillaume had a public falling out, but in 1991 starred together in the movie Tous Les Matins Du Monde.
