Larry King’s Widow, Shawn King, Set to Challenge Secret Will in Court

Larry King's widow, Shawn King, has expressed her shock and determination to contest the recently revealed secret will that excluded her.

She believes that someone influenced Larry to create this document and is prepared to fight it vigorously in court.

According to reports, the late broadcaster made a handwritten amendment to his will in 2019, leaving his $2 million estate to his five children but omitting his estranged wife.

However, Shawn claims that they had a solid family estate plan that they created together in 2015, which she firmly believes is the legitimate will.

Shawn King plans to contest the secret will in court, stating that her attorneys will file a response soon.

The legal situation surrounding Larry's death is already complex as he had filed for divorce from Shawn in August 2019, before the amended will was written.

Unfortunately, the divorce proceedings were not concluded before his passing.

The amended will specifically names Larry King's children, including Andy, Chiara, Larry Jr., Cannon, and Chance.

However, both Andy and Chiara passed away in 2020.

Shawn reveals that Cannon and Chance were also unaware of the secret will and were shocked to learn of its existence.

They fully support her legal battle against it.

When asked about the motive behind Larry's decision to create the secret will, Shawn expressed her confusion, stating that it was beyond her understanding.

She does not believe that Larry wrote her out of the will due to any lingering animosity from their divorce.

Based on the timeline, it doesn't make sense to her.

The estate, valued at $2 million, is relatively modest, especially considering it needs to be divided among Larry's surviving heirs and potentially the descendants of his deceased son and daughter.

When questioned about her decision to challenge the will despite the relatively small amount she would have received, Shawn emphasized that it is a matter of principle for her.

Shawn King's fight against Larry King's secret will is set to unfold in court, where she aims to prove the legitimacy of their original family estate plan.

She remains adamant that it will hold up and that justice will prevail.

The ongoing legal battle adds further complexity to an already intricate situation surrounding Larry King's passing, leaving his family and the public awaiting the resolution.
