Your very cynical lol! You don't think it could have been love of a kind?

 

I never read the Daily Heil, but since you linked to it and I trust your judgement in these matters implicitly - I looked.

 

I'd never given it a second thought til then (nor indeed that much even now), but lets be honest here "I thought I could live here (in this 5 million pile) for the rest of my life"?  Not, "I'm devastated the love of my life is gone, I don't care about the money of course it should mostly go to his kids". Now that could just be the papers take on it, they have form and are after all a clickbait outfit, but it's unlikely to be an outright lie, she could sue if it were.

 

or TLDR: No, I don't.

On this occasion  I think your  cynicism is justified...!

Coincidentally, I was reading a biography of Robert Plant today and it mentioned he's such a fan of Leslie Philips that Plant and a mate once gifted each other the same Leslie Philips box set of films for Christmas, only the one Plant gave away was signed by Leslie because Plant had made it his business to seek out the great actor and get that signature.
