They were getting a divorce so what did she expect? I'm sure HER side of the story is very sympathetic but he's dead so we won't hear his but the will is a pretty good clue. |
The divorce was not final. I would not be surprised if he told his attorneys to cause delays. He had updated his will shortly before his surgery, around the time of his cancer diagnosis. In divorce she would have gotten half. He is trying to limit her to 1/3. Paulina had relationships with all 6 of his kids. He may have been jealous. His actions were designed to humiliate her and cause the family to fight each other for $. The sons he wrote out were both from his 1st marriage. The 2 from his 2nd marriage and 2 with Paulina were in the will. Presumably a lot of $ is in trusts. |
I thought I read he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer? |
I read that she had all 6 of the sons come to the house. Not just her 2. |
You know what, this is very perceptive and quite possible! I have seen parents who triangulate with their children and spouse, so it could be that kind of issue. |
Yes, this is ludicrous. He was a successful musician and producer in his own right. VERY successful. He certainly didn't have to "take" her money. |
She appeared to even vacation with a family of an older son. She had all 6 at the house on the day Ric died. He seems like a nasty and bitter man. He said in interviews that he regretted not reconciling with Orr before his death then pulls this with the 2 sons from his first marriage. I suspect he was a narcissist and that this pattern of estrangement had happened elsewhere in his family tree. |
There was a rumor that he had a baby with someone else. Will be interesting if info re: that comes out at trial. |
No way!! dang |
Something like this would make sense (would explain why he had to have the surgery, why she moved home, why she didn't mention the specific surgery -- people are weird about penis-adjacent things), but I haven't seen it mentioned nor could I find a single hit on google suggesting that it was the case. (Another PP says he had a cancer diagnosis, can't find anything to support that either.) Rod Stewart has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Orr died from pancreatic cancer. Nothing on Ocasek that I can find. |
Ahhh ok. I thought PP was saying she was enforcing what was in the pre-nup. That’s why it didn’t make sense that onky her daughter was impacted. If she was asking for more than what was in the pre-nup then yes, agree it should come from her child. |
Maybe she was implying that he was controlling? |
I think it was very compassionate of her not to call ems right away....she was making sure all the children were there to have a peaceful goodbye on their own terms. Once ems is called, the paparazzi and TMZ slime balls are all over that and there is no privacy. She did the right thing. Not shady. |
Ocasek and Orr did reconcile before Orr's death. |
Possible. You never know. |
