Prince

In 2016, Prince died at the age of 57 intestate and the courts estimated his estates to be worth at least $200,000 million, all thanks to his unreleased recordings and musical legacy.

Since his death, many individuals have come forward claiming to be either his child, wife, sibling or distant relative just because he died without a will.

A court named Prince’s six siblings as heirs to his holdings in 2017 but the decision is being contested by ‘would-be-heirs’ stalling the distribution of the assets.
