As much as I hated her, I believe she deserved what was in the will. She was there for 2 years and didn't cheat on him, you don't think the media would have found out and published it if she did. From court records, she also took more care of him than his children did. They were trying to get him into an old folks home, but she took care of him at his house and took him out to see the world.Anna Nicole Smith married the old guy for his cash then when he dies and the family disputes her right to it her lawyer sees an opportunity and represents her.
It reminds me of my Grandmother, the only time my aunts (save one of them, who also spent a couple years helping to take care of her) and cousins showed up to "visit" her was when they wanted money, but I visited and honestly can say I never asked her for cash, nor did my parents. When she died, she didn't leave a lot, but everyone said that they "deserved" a larger share. The only two who didn't want more was my father and that one aunt. My father being executor gave a double share to my aunt and everyone else got a single share including him. What happened? The others went to the police accusing my father and her of murdering my grandmother and testifying how they "took constant care of her"....
Ugh....I hate my relatives....
