I would never ever fight with my late husbands kids over things their father owned. It is rightfully theirs. A 7 year marriage doesn't supersede a parent child relationship. Ridiculous.
FemBot sorry. the man has the right to give what he wants to who wants. if he had a good will there's no argument. his kids sound like they are spoiled. Warren Buffets children get college tuition and a car and he has billions. go kids and make your own money.
Its disgusting... just because he is gone family should never fight over his personal belongings. it should go to his children to be cherished forever as memories and the WIFE seems like a toxic snake. It doesnt show any respect at all towards Robin.. all i see here is Greed of EGO and Greed of Money
I've have known Robin Williams since the 1970s when he was a street performer. I actually met him a few times. The first was in Washington Park in Greenwich village in NYC. He made me laugh so hard I cried. I put $2 dollars (what I could spare at the time) in his basket and shook his hand, and thanked him for lifting my spirits. He actually blushed. Mork and Mindy just came up on the air.l (I just dated myself, no cable yet !) My Farther way a stone faced "S.O.B." and didn't laugh at anything. At the time Atlantic City was upcoming, I took my Dad there to "gamble" but I really took him to see Robin... I didn't watch Robin... My Dad just laughed constantly... I was just watched my Dad laughing and smiling... After his standup, I went to Robin and asked if he remembers me... He did, he remembers the $2 dollars and the park. I had my a Dad shake his hand... My Dad NEVER laughed that much and enjoyed Mork and Mindy. He blushed again. A few years later, I was living in L.A. I caught Robin at the "Comedy Store" off the Sunset Strip. He was at the top of his game... I laughed so hard I fell off my chair... Robin recognized me! I was literally was rolling around in the floor. He actually helped me up... "He Tom? You ok?" Oh yes I said... "Just please downshift a little, I can't take it" I made Robin laugh. My wife was thrilled to meet him... He the did his thing for her... You know how Robin could "unleash" himself on people... She couldn't stop laughing... I had made my wife laugh before, but this was a new level of funny. She took his hand and begged him to stop, and thanked him profusely. He blushed again. When he left us I cried... No one will EVER hold a place in our hearts like Robin, it was an honor to know him. Some day I will laugh with him again. There will Never be another Robin.
@Rusalka you are right about what the law states. I guess I was thinking more along the lines of what's fair , what's ethical, and what's morally correct more so than what's legal.
@Rusalka I guess that's what I get for commenting on things that I don't have all the facts on. I didn't know anything about a nanny with a big nose. Or about illegitimate children. The late, great Frank Sinatra had a will made out where if anybody challenged what they were left in his will, the person starting trouble would lose everything.
@Rusalka thanks so much. That was really good information both about Frank Sinatra and about Robin Williams. Now it makes sense that he gave up and committed suicide. I miss him and hate he went out like that but he went through a whole lot more than I could have ever imagined.
Not just hard to believe he’s no longer with us but it’s hard to believe he helped so many during their battles by his unforgettable entertainment, yet nobody was able to help him refrain from what happened. He helped many but was battling way more than we ever knew behind closed doors.
My father left me his rings and I never received them. No one knows what happened to them. I remember seeing them just before he passed. I could care less about them I would just love to have my dad back. The games family play over someone's death and the belongings is disgusting. Miss you dad RIP
Oh it was so painfully obvious in the first interview (after his death) the wife gave where she was literally FAKE CRYING that she didn't love him she loved his money. She wasn't willing to help him fight for his life but she's first in line to fight his very own children for his money! She disgusts me and he deserved better! My heart goes out to his children.
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed her crying but with no tears flowing. I mean she tried, she tried really hard grimacing her face but it still didn't work.
I thought the same; the fake cry was what made me distrust her. Clearly not a good actress! Also I believe Zelda & the other kids when they said she never invited them over.
No,his wife deserves it,she was still married to him at the time,why should she get nothing,it's a spouse responsibility to take care of each other,the children are grown and can take care of themselves.
jon beams in western countries not in other parts you in our country divorces is 0.000000001% and you can’t even talk loudly to anyone that’s older than you we will live in a god given world not in money bought world
You're right about the ugly side of people coming out when there's money involved. When my dad died his financial situation was in a shambles. The Siblings who w e r e least involved with him and therefore did not know what was going on with his estate w e r e the ones that accused me of taking Dad's house and his money. He left the house to me in his will. My siblings who accused me of stealing from Dad hurt me a whole lot more than daddy dying. I forgive them because they're ignorant and maybe that's the only way they can deal with that guilt for not having done more for him.
@@asafaust6774 Money brings the Ugly side out SO TRUE. I'm so Sorry for the Added Pain to what should've just been Grieving time.. I Hope your Ok now x
When she cries in interviews it's so fake...its interesting how when some people cry u can feel it yourself it almost makes u cry and with other people (like her) you feel nothing it seems fake and forced
It is August 15, 2021 and I am just seeing this. Earlier today I saw an interview with Mr Williams wife. Where she was trying to hold back tears. I thought to myself, she is a phony. After watching this I haven’t changed my mind. RIP Robin Williams.
Such a dispute unfortunately should be expected. Make sure your will specifies one beneficiary; then if they predecease you, have another single beneficiary. Leave nothing in question in your will: make every single thing concrete, or set in stone. Then if the person (your wife, eldest or favorite son/daughter) wishes to divide the estate they can. Family disputes over what you've earned: NOW THAT will demonstrate to somebody (maybe you in heaven or hell) what you really meant to your family. RIP Robin; after W.C. Fields (died in 1945), Robin remains my second favorite comedian of all time.
DickWhittington1000 He did make everything concrete, he stated that his jewelry would go to his kids, now the wife is saying that "jewelry does not include his watch collection"....Really, then why are watches sold in jewelry stores....just smh here.... Maybe he should have had all of his personal stuff engraved with serial numbers with a list of who got what, or something. Or done an inventory...... P.S. the night before he died he put his watches in a sock and gave them to a neighbor for "safekeeping"....I find that interesting to say the least. The neighbor gave the watches back to his wife, I believe.......you just never know what was going through his mind....maybe he knew in his heart she was a golddigger. She then left him alone for over 13 hours without bothering to check on him, even though she knew he was depressed from his medical diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.....
Yes, Robin's will is laid in solid stone/concrete. Leave it to a lawyer to find a conniving loophole that doesn't exist. I have a feeling our justice system will put the gold diggers in their place. I can spot a gold digger the moment she says "hi", if she thinks I might have something. If you might have more than a pot to pi...(politically correct) void in; be beware. Watches are classified as jewelry if made to be worn on the wrist or as a locket; pocket watches aren't jewelry last time a certain person tried to pull this same trick in my family in 1964.
DickWhittington1000 Susan Schneider is going to be the next "most hated woman in America" since Casey Anthony or close to it if she doesn't cut out her shenanigans...how the h*ll do you leave your severely depressed husband alone for 13 hours? And now she contests the will. He and his lawyers should have put a "no contest clause" in the will....Why did he get married again....he obviously could not stand to be alone....he married her on the rebound.
She was his wife. That makes her entitled. The only reason people are making a big deal is because it's his third wife, who wasn't mother to any of his kids. If Robin was still married to his second wife, who was mother of two of his kids, everyone would think she was entitled to everything. Even though his oldest son was from his first marriage, everyone would agree that his 2nd wife, and mother to his two younger kids, would be entitled to everything. Then it would pass to the kids after she died. Like the Tory Spelling story. Her mother was entitled to everything, because she was his wife. Tori would then get everything after she dies, unless she stipulates she doesn't. Kids owe their lives to their parents. That's all. They didn't enter into a marriage contract, which gives each other joint ownership of each other's assets. Robin gave them life, but he's not obligated to give them anything because of it. Other than child support if they are minors.
Think this last wife was a bit of a Golddigger. But he did marry her of his own free will so I would guess she by that alone would give her some standing in all this. This certainly a sad situation that occurs in many families who claim Estate rights.
She has been with him for seven years not 10 minutes. Robin put it in his will that his wife would get the house and it's contents. His children are being greedy.
She knew him for longer than 10 minutes... Robin Williams loved her and married her... That constiutes knowing someone for longer than 10 minutes ''''you eejit''''
I own barely nothing and I still have a "rock solid" will for my only son and child.............. some people have too many dollars and not enough sense (cents)
the richer you are the more there is heartache . Greed sometimes overtakes everything. Robin Williams was a genius and his mind was intense with fast thinking and his family should remember him for all his kindness and generosity. they should remember him best by being kind and generous to each other.
Give the his children what rightfully theirs. His wife has a sketchy story and I don't believe her for s***. The world lost an amazing amazing magnificent inspirational man. Who will always be missed. It still doesn't seem real. It still hurts my heart every time I have to remind myself that you are no longer here. 🖤❤R.I.P Robin Williams❤🖤 you'll forever be my childhood hero😭😢😥
anthony conner Because lots of step monsters are shit!I had one, neglected my father dreadfully but walked away with everything even photos! There was not a thing we could do? So I have no sympathy for Robin,s wife she reminds me of my step monster, bad acting ,cold and out and out lies.Sociopaths!
@@TrinityDivine68 Im pretty sure every parents goal is to give their children the best life they possibly can and the most opportunities they didn't have. I'm 100% sure he didn't plan on his 3rd wife fighting his children for property and possessions... Smh
Sadly I feel he died feeling unloved and alone. If I knew my husband was battling an issue....there's no way I would leave home for work and not at least give him a kiss or peep in on him. There was no tears coming from her crying eyes in that interview. I don't think her love was there at all...she was there for the good time but not the bad.
My father passed away 4 months ago today. My step mother, his 4th wife, did not welcome his 3 (adult) children to stay in the home for the funeral services (they live out of town). We were not included in making any of the funeral plans, writing the obituary, and still have not been advised of a reading of the will. We haven’t even been invited to the home to help go through his belongings although we have asked time after time to help and be a part of the process as a family. When he first got sick about 5 years ago and started losing his memory (he had Alzheimer’s and Dementia), she started controlling our visits because my dad no longer had a mindset to intervene, and we were basically only allowed to the house once a year. No birthdays, no holidays, no Christmas dinners and Only IF invited ... as if we weren’t family. My sister and I practically had to beg for some of his ashes as she planned to bury them in her backyard ... continuing to control our access to him even after death. We don’t know what to do, and I’m so very concerned about the heirlooms that have been in my family for generations. I couldn’t care less about money, or whatever they purchased together as a married couple. I just want what should rightfully stay in his blood family. Don’t know what to do. My dad wouldn’t want a battle and raised me to respect his wife. I accepted her coming into our family, why couldn’t she accept the fact that he already had children. Sucks.
Wow. Not something that should go to court. His kids have lost their father, let them have what they need to comfort them and give them any peace with all they deal with
Folks, PLEASE discuss these financial decisions prior to a final goodbye; It is not that difficult!! Saves so much heartbreak after the fact...I know several families where Siblings are no longer speaking to each other~Sad💔:(
It's very difficult for both his children and his widow as they both loved him intensely. Giving up a part of him is difficult. The wife should be allowed to keep the home and all the things they obtained during their union but anything before that should go to the children. What was in the will should be honoured.
He said it himself. He gave up addiction for his kids. That in it self says what his children meant to him. You can't even get social security if your married less than ten years. Hello.
I saw an interview saying he had a disease like Alzheimer with hallucinations that pushed him to suicide . So sad . I loved that man . Such compassion in those eyes - RIP Robin .... Gone but never forgotten
This is absolutely devastating for a man that will always be a part of history in such a relatable and heartfelt way. Nobody wants to create a legacy that their loved ones are forced to anguish over. I hope they can find fast closure quickly before it causes too much irreversible anguish and resentment. I kind of wonder what Dr. Phil could do with keeping the family together through this. 😢~Sheeara, Alaska
Hey man I bet if you were in the same situation you would be fighting for the money I know I would and I’m willing to bet almost everyone would too if you say otherwise you’re lying to yourself
I’m a woman and agree 100%, especially when your older if she loves you she wouldn’t care what’s on a bloody paper, if the women isn’t be happy with that, you know she wants you to sign a contract (marriage papers) for financial security. Stay away from these women!
Did Robin not say "the worst thing in life is not being alone, the worst thing in life is being with someone who makes you feel alone" Why did he not draw up a will?
I am going to gather up all my bills and fines place them in a safe then leave it to my greedy wife, Knowing her she would take the cheap safe a try to sell it at a car boot sale while claiming she has no idea what is inside
WHEN MY MUMMY DIED SHE LEFT US WITH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN DEPTS.....I AM LOOKING FOR ANYONE TO CHALLENGE THAT DECISION AND TELL US IT RIGHTFULLY BELONGS TO THEM
That’s so messed up. I’m sorry but robins wife seems so sketchy and weird. Why hasn’t she invited his kids after death and mourn together? I think she should keep some things but the items that are more sentimental items should be with his children 7 years together doesn’t beat a year life relationship with your children
She hasn't invited them over because they started stealing things from the house the same day Robin died and immediately hired lawyers to try to take more. I wouldn't want people in my house either if they were trying to rob the place.
Robin is a nice person I am sorry he is not here I miss his presence and the way he made people happy with his comedy I am sure if I knew him I would of wanted just to sit and talk with him and laugh at his jokes to hell with them and all that inheritance you can't take it with you but his work and memories will live on I love you robin
how do you know if he had a good relationship with his children or not? Not all is what it seems.. Most American's are fake.. all put on for appearance
I think she made his depression worse....it's obvious that she ignored him in his last days. SO SAD. His friend warned her that Robin was in a bad state of mind 10 days before his death....Why would Susan leave him all alone for 13 hours in that state of mind???? Why Susan???
+pepela I think she left him alone because she knew that would add to his depression and make him possibly kill himself quicker so she could get her fucking money quicker. The more I hear about this bitch the more I hate her passionately! :-(
She was with him 3 years. She should have what they collected together during that 3 years. Other than that if the Will states it goes to the children then that's where everything goes.
Mustang Flyer You are 💯 % right. When my Dad got sick. My Aunts whom I loved dearly and thought that they felt the same way about me. They like they been holding in the anger and rage and jealousy of me. And now that my Dad was dying 🥺 and couldn’t defend me .they almost made me had a mental break down. And actually questioned my love for my Dad.
He knew his wife didn't love him. He probably also realized his kids didn't really love him either. He already felt like he was a burden with his clinical depression and his gold-digging wife undoubtedly said some very painful and hurtful things to him on a regular basis. From his standpoint, he was absolutely 100% certain that it was impossible for anything to get better, only worse. The wife would divorce him and take most everything he had, the kids would've all gone their separate ways. Who would have been left to help him with his lifelong depression *and* Parkinson's now? Knowing with absolute certainty that things are only going to get worse, and learning how to block-out all the idiots who say otherwise, because you know they're clueless and stupid, and their good intentions only serve to piss you off, often provides the final push for many people. When you're younger, it's different. But when you know your best days are behind you in pretty much every single category that matters, it suddenly becomes "Fuck this, I'm not dealing with this anymore, no thanks, I'm done."
She couldnt even keep her stories or emotions straight in the interview. Only married 3 years and slept in separate rooms. Said he was sleeping and never woke up then said he hung himself by a belt. One minute she sobbing and in a millisecond she is perfectly fine?!?!?! I would have been investigating his death. Too many people using people's disabilities like depression to make murder look like suicide. I think she loved his things not him.
He hung himself by the bed post. And they slept in separate rooms due to his disease. Go do some fucking research about his autopsy. He was showing early stage warnings of parkinson's and his depression and his rare neurological issues were literally driving him mad. And stop claiming he was murdered. What a fucking disgusting thing to say about someone who was with him for years. You people are ignorant and toxic. Robin was a borderline misanthrope for a part of his life, now I see why!
JAXVLOGZ I agree she was dry crying in an interview. And coming from someone who knows how it feels to hurt over the death of a loved one, I definitely didn't dry cry. I cried hard. There are other things that sounds fishy. And now she's lying on his kids accusing them of taking things from their home after his death but the kids said no. So she's definitely a liar . I don't know what to believe
I lost my dad and didn't want anything from him. I just miss him even though he's still alive in my soul. I dont think anyone deserves the money or items left behind... you obviously dont know what he was going through
Poor Robin even if the intention was not there,( Which I seriously doubt) could blame him if he did have intent. dementia is the worst and Lewy body dementia is worse again. It would take an extremely brave person to accept what is going to happen and still walk right into it without having some out
Just watching this makes me feel sadness..I think because we all have felt it and we all know it isn't a good feeling. It's a sad story. For him & others like him i wish it had gone differently
Just like when James Brown died, the family fought over the money, and here he laid in his casket for 3 weeks or longer till it was settled. They were also fighting over where he should be buried!
@@TheSmackdwn yes it does count why marry someone,if you don't love them and leave them nothing,marriage you are with your spouse everyday,children are grown up,not with you everyday,they need to grow up.
Robin Williams was an accomplished actor with many awards including Emmys and Oscars to show for his success in Hollywood. The success once brought his net wealth to about $100 million
I don't know why people do not leave a specific will.She seems to be grieving.. they all need to get together with a very good mediator and therapist. I can see her position though... would you want people going through your home just picking out what they wanted.. shopping just shopping away? The fact that she gave them all the rights to his past and his future earnings is evidence that she's not being unreasonable.That's where the real money is.In time I think she would have given them the personal nicknacks they wanted. These lawyers will make alot of money, and keep them all miserable for a long time. A highly specific Will would have avoided this.
Opps I. forgot to add that she is not a gold digger at all. She is highly educated and not like a typical Hollywood type at all.She was with him for awhile and they had been friends for years prior. She is a really kind,intelligent, and wise woman. She is also a mature woman.(meaning she's not 20,she's way older)Not a gold digging show wife!
If there’s a will, there’s almost always a fight. You’d be amazed at how it can be “interpreted” by many lightweight, lowlife lawyers. And it keeps A LOT of lawyers above water.
3:40 I believe his so called substance abuse was really an attempt at self medication and his TEAM of doctors should have been able to figure out what was the real problem years sooner. Instead they didn't figure it out until his autopsy!!! I saw an interview which said he had been sober for 8 years. Maybe if instead of sober or clean he had been on the right meds...???
He created his own success...it is inexcusable for a family to argue over money after an entire family lost such an amazing man in such a tragic way. Greed is a powerful.
My dad's mother died in 1962, the year I was born. My dad's father remarried in his grief, to a poor lady, with nothing. My father was an only child. When his dad died, my father got nothing. She took everything, then gave it to her kids from her first marriage. Half a million dollars. Be careful folks, this stuff happens. It destroyed my Father, and he turned to drinking. He died at 77.
there is an old saying, "where there's a will there's a relative" and that's so true. People don't respect other's and family members any more, society has become so selfish and greedy they can't see the wood for the trees, all they can see is what they can get. I often wonder seeing things like this, how would that relative feel watching the family scavenging and picking apart a person's life over a few possessions. They both loved the same person ffs
Robin Williams was a genius!! Bi-polar is a horrible chemical disorder. It can only be reined in but it usually calls the shots! May he rest in peace, he gave us his all...
