The Late Sean Connery's son, Jason, has spoken out against allegations made by his mother regarding his inheritance.
Despite his ex-wife's claims that their son would not receive any of the actor's millions, both Jason and Connery's granddaughter, Saskia, have expressed their love and admiration for him.
In October 2020, Connery passed away at the age of 90 in the Bahamas, leaving behind a legacy in the film and TV industry.
His family, who still deeply miss him, were by his side as he peacefully passed away in his sleep at home.
Following his death, his family made it their mission to fulfill his final wish of having his ashes scattered in Scotland, his home country.
The cause of Connery's death was attributed to heart failure caused by pneumonia and old age.
It was reported that he had an irregular heartbeat, which resulted in poor blood flow.
Prior to his passing, he made it clear to his family that he wanted his final resting place to be in Scotland, a wish that was honored.
While Connery's wife and children did everything they could to make him happy and respect his dying wishes, it wasn't always a smooth journey for the iconic actor.
His first marriage to Australian actress Diane Cilento was filled with controversies and allegations.
Cilento, who was also a renowned performer, gained fame as a s** symbol in the 1950s and '60s.
Despite her own accomplishments, she often lived in the shadow of her famous husband.
In the 1970s, Cilento expressed her desire to be recognized as a talented actress in her own right, rather than just James Bond's wife.
During the promotion of her memoir “My Nine Lives” in 2006, Cilento revealed the struggles she faced during her marriage to Connery.
She accused him of both physical and mental abuse, claiming that he had beaten her.
However, Connery vehemently denied these allegations.
Cilento also made headlines when she stated that Connery had removed their son Jason from his will.
Connery denied these claims, stating that Cilento knew little about his life as they had not seen each other in nearly 37 years.
Despite the controversies surrounding his parents' relationship, Jason had a close bond with his father.
They shared a love for golf and enjoyed spending time together on the course.
Jason defended his father against tabloid claims, stating that he was tired of reading articles that portrayed his father as a “monster or tyrant.”
Sean Connery's granddaughter, Saskia, holds her late-grandfather in high regard.
She is the daughter of Sean's stepson, Stephane, and has achieved success as a fashion designer.
Saskia often expresses her love for her grandfather on social media, sharing photos and heartfelt captions about what he meant to her.
As the second anniversary of Connery's death approached in August 2022, Saskia posted a series of photos on Instagram commemorating her late-grandfather and expressing her continued admiration for him.
Despite the controversies and allegations surrounding Sean Connery's personal life, his son Jason and granddaughter Saskia continue to remember him fondly and refute any negative claims made against him.
Their love and adoration for the late actor serve as a testament to his lasting impact on their lives.
