  • Jury Determines 2014 Will Found In Aretha Franklin’s Couch Is Valid, Reports Say

    Jury Determines 2014 Will Found In Aretha Franklin’s Couch Is Valid, Reports Say

    A jury ruled in favor of the late Aretha Franklin’s newly found will for her estate, putting an end to the ongoing battle between her children, TMZ reported. 

    The legendary Queen of Soul passed away from pancreatic cancer in August 2018. It was thought that Franklin died without a known will however that changed in 2019 when a handwritten letter was found in a book hidden in the creases of her couch. 

    The five-page will, dated March 31, 2014, was brought to trial to determine whether the 2010 draft or the newfound document would be recognized. As of Tuesday, a Michigan jury concluded that the 2014 document is indeed plausible.  

    In the new will Aretha appoints her sons Kecalf and Edward as executors of her $6 million estate.

    “Teddy,”

    AKA Ted White II, their brother who was called to be the executor in the 2010 version, the name was apparently crossed out of the new will. According to TMZ, the 2010 document ordered Kecalf and Edward to

    “take business classes, and get a degree or certificate to benefit from Aretha’s estate.”

    However, based on the 2014 interpretation the men no longer have that as a requirement.

    Man Stole 10K From His Girlfriend To Gamble, Wins 100M & Gives Her Back Exact Amount —- Now She’s Demanding $40M

    A Nigerian man allegedly stole 10K Nigerian dollars from his girlfriend to gamble and won $100 million from his play but only gave her back the exact amount of money he had stolen, African Diaspora News Channel reported.

    The incident, which occurred in February 2021, has since received viral outrage with people calling the unidentified man

    “greedy.”

    According to Your Tango, the woman was unaware her money was taken until she was told by the man that he used the funds in a bet that lasted for two days. 

    The man promised to return the $10,000 to his girlfriend after he won but to his amazement, he gained even more than he imagined. Winning 100 million Nigerian dollars, the man shared the exciting news with his lady but instead of giving her a fair share of the money he had stolen, he gave her back exactly $10,000. Furious by his empty gesture, the woman demanded the boyfriend give her $40 million from his jackpot but the man says he has other plans for his money. He claims he will be using most of the money to

    “grow his business.”

    After many threats from his girlfriend saying she would leave him, he decided to give her 5 million however, she is still standing on her original request of 40 million. Now the man is looking for advice on whether he wants to be financially wealthy or stay with the love of his life. One user suggested he,

    “give her 10mil to buy [your] freedom and move on.”
