Malcolm-Jamal Warner Mom Reaches Settlement With His Daughter’s Guardians … In Inheritance Battle
Published
Malcolm-Jamal Warner‘s mom, Pamela Warner, worked out a settlement with the actor’s daughter’s guardians over her inheriting a portion of his fortune … TMZ has learned.
Pamela tells us the agreement was hashed out with the guardians for Malcolm’s daughter and has yet to be approved by the court. Malcolm’s widow, Tenisha Warner, has not weighed in on the deal, nor does it appear she played a role … but Pamela says she remains “hopeful that all parties will support the resolution.”
Pamela said she also wanted to address the recent saddening public statements by Malcolm’s widow, Tenisha.
She said, “Recent claims that Pamela sought to prevent her granddaughter from receiving financial support are untrue.”
Pamela said Malcolm was “thoughtful and deliberate in his estate planning to include all his loved ones.” She admits his trust was divided between her, his father and his sister. However, she said Malcolm provided for his wife and daughter separately and apart from the trust … to the tune of millions of dollars.
She said, “Pamela has since reached a settlement with her granddaughter’s representatives which is subject to court approval. The agreement provides for Malcolm’s daughter to receive the majority remainder of the Trust and Estate.” The deal said the daughter’s college tuition will be handled and she will receive a cut of the estate.
Pamela said the deal is in the best interest of Malcolm’s daughter to have a relationship with her grandma.
As TMZ first reported, Tenisha sued Pamela, claiming her daughter was wrongfully cut out of the actor’s estate.
