She died intestine?
This won’t be pretty.
Wonder if she liked slightly younger white boys? Oh well, too late now.
She knew she was in bad health for a long time - I wonder if she just didn’t trust the legal system.
Intestate
This is truly sad.
States and attorneys love this sort of thing.
Hillary and Chelsey want the dough.
She wasn’t the sharpest tool, and or she was played specifically so it would play out in court. Some dirt bag will now come foreward with claims. Beyond sad.
Let this be a warning to any Freepers who haven’t gotten their last affairs in order.
Wills and suchlike aren’t just for “the rich.”
You can prevent a lot of unnecessary family strife by getting this taken care of. And there are lawyers who will do this for a reasonable fee.
Where there’s a will, I want to be part of it.
Read that not long ago here on FR.
My Dad had a will but it was goofy.
I smoothed the way by signing over my claim to my Sister...so probate was relatively simple.
My brother-in-law passed a few months back, my Sister is still dealing with the details..and he had a good, solid will. The tricky part was the two death benefits he had on his Ameriprise market accounts. They want every i dotted and t crossed, they probably have been played for fools by people in the past.
It goes by statute. No big deal.

“Aretha Franklin died without a will”
Boy. THAT’S gonna keep me up nights.

She got pregnant at 12, had another vat 14. Parents were not the best role models, kind of appropriate having Rev. Gropey and Oogling Bill there as her old man couldn’t keep it zipped either.
I notice that too. She had her first child at 13 - wow.
True, but why was the niece appointed as executor?
I’ve read that before.If true,by the time all the dust has settled there will be a number of very rich lawyers and the family will get essentially nothing.I think I’ve read that she was worth some very serious $$$...which would certainly be expected.
She had a baby at 13?! Wow. My older daughters are 15 and 13. I cant even imagine them being mothers.
Yup,I remember seeing the video of her saying that.In the background was a moving van moving her belongings into her newly acquired $10 million townhouse in Tribeca.
