CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted August 9, 2016 are there any families of celebrities suffering from alzheimers or dementia who aren't embrouiled in a nasty dispute over their will etc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,541 Posted August 9, 2016 are there any families of celebrities suffering from alzheimers or dementia who aren't embrouiled in a nasty dispute over their will etc? Haven't seen any evidence that the families of the Boys of 66 - incl Bonnetti - are doing that. Decent, honest working class values being applied there, eh? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,264 Posted August 9, 2016 are there any families of celebrities suffering from alzheimers or dementia who aren't embrouiled in a nasty dispute over their will etc? At least publicly the following have not go t people fighting over their assets: Peter Hall ,Tony Booth, Prunella Scales, John Noakes, Jill Gascoine, Jeanne Little ,Nobby Stiles, Martin Peters and Malcolm Young. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problems seem to come from multiple marriages, and children arguing with spouse, who is not their birth mother. Added to this a large amount of money and any previous acrimony and resentments and the person at the centre of it all oblivious you have a perfect storm. In some ways it is nothing new Jane Austen describes such a febrile family in the opening chapters of Sense and Sensibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
