So this was “extremely... embarassing” to their son and the way his parents decide to honor his memory is by “outing” the whole sordid affair??? Oh, yeah -— there’s money involved.
If he died intestate, his children will more than likely be awarded a substantial portion of his estate and any settlement anyway. The parents and ex-wife are just trying to impose their disapproval on the new wife’s “transition” and get their hands on all the money themselves.
Interesting.
