Larry King‘s wife Shawn, with whom he was in the process of getting a divorce before his death, is planning to contest his will.
The 61-year-old actress plans to contest his will after the late TV star amended it in 2019 to leave his $2 million estate solely to his five children, two of whom are deceased, ET reported Tuesday (February 16).
“The handwritten will, obtained by ET, is dated Oct. 17, 2019; King filed for divorce from Shawn two months earlier, in August 2019, after 22 years of marriage. According to ET‘s source, Shawn plans to contest the will in court,” the outlet reported.
The amended will left his fortune to children Chaia, Andy, Larry Jr., Chance and Cannon. In 2020, his 65-year-old son Andy died in July while his 51-year-old daughter, Chaia, died a month later.
