Jean-Luc passed away "peacefully at home" on Tuesday while surrounded by his loved ones, including his film-maker wife, Annie-Marie Miéville, in the Swiss town of Rolle. He was 91.

His long-time legal adviser, Patrick Jeanneret, revealed he had chosen to end his life and died by assisted suicide, having suffered from "multiple disabling pathologies".

The practice of assisted dying – helping someone take their own life at their request – is legal and regulated in Switzerland and permitted if offered without a selfish motive to a person with decision-making capacity wishing to end their life.

"He could not live like you and me, so he decided with a great lucidity, as he had all his life, to say, 'Now, it's enough,'" his lawyer Patrick told the New York Times, adding that Jean-Luc wanted to die with dignity and "that was exactly what he did".

Back in 2014, Jean-Luc appeared on Swiss TV and spoke of his views on assisted dying, admitting he didn't foresee wanting to continue living at any cost.

"If I'm too ill, I don't have any desire to be lugged around in a wheelbarrow ... not at all," he said, according to French paper Libération. Asked whether he could imagine resorting to assisted dying, he said: “Yes", but added that the choice was "still very difficult".
