Life, Death & Money: Aretha Franklin
May 27, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm PDT
I’ll be providing commentary for the Reelz Channel docuseries, Life, Death & Money: Aretha Franklin. Tune in!
When the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, died in 2018, her estate was worth approximately $80 million — and at first, even without a will left behind, everything was peaceful between her remaining four sons. However, shortly after her death, it is revealed that Aretha Franklin didn’t just leave behind one will — she left behind three, all handwritten and concealed within the confines of her private residence. One was even tucked away under the couch cushions. The wills seem to contradict each other and have sections that are illegible. But if one is declared valid, it could spark a massive feud between Franklin’s four sons. Now, the discussion isn’t about Franklin’s long and storied career, but who will inherit her millions.
