• Jennifer Scott, the former cleaner for billionaire Richard Scott, wins the inheritance after marrying him in 2016, becoming the main beneficiary of his £43 million fortune
• The court confirms the validity of Richard’s will and Jennifer’s legal management of his assets, despite objections from his son Adam, who claimed his father was not of sound mind when signing the final will

Jennifer Scott, who had worked as a cleaner for the late British billionaire Richard Scott since 1994, successfully won a legal battle against his son Adam, securing her position as the primary beneficiary of the estate, estimated at around £43 million

She married Richard in 2016 after the death of his first wife and took over the management of his extensive assets, including the UK’s second-largest shoe showroom and his Cheshire estate

In a surprising move, Richard had canceled his previous will, disinheriting his son Adam from the inheritance he was initially set to receive

Adam claimed that his father was not fully aware when signing the final will

However, Jennifer’s lawyers insisted that Richard was completely of sound mind when making the decision, and that Adam’s disinheritance was the result of family disputes rather than any mental incapacity

They also noted that Adam had previously received properties and land worth more than £10 million before his father’s death

The court ultimately ruled in Jennifer’s favor, affirming the validity of the will and her legal authority over the extensive estate, confirming that Richard’s decision regarding his son’s inheritance was a personal choice

During the trial, the case files revealed details of Richard Scott’s complex life, from previous relationships to his second marriage to Jennifer, who had been employed as a cleaner by him since 1994

Adam had previously attempted to block the marriage, but legal authorities confirmed Richard’s eligibility to marry after conducting the necessary investigations
