One of the most infamous will readings happened after the passing of legendary TV mogul Reg Grundy. You see, Kim Robin Grundy, more commonly known as Viola La Valette, Mundy’s estranged daughter, showed up at the reading to challenge her father’s widow Joy Chambers –Grundy for her share of the $900 million will, despite not having seen her father in 22 years. As you might imagine, the reading went horribly, and a bitter legal battle followed.
Grundy grew a massive fortune thanks to creating shows like Perfect Match, Sale of the Century, Neighbors, and Wheel of Fortune. The legal battle finally finished this year, with his daughter earning a yearly payment of $250,000 from Grundy’s $900 million fortune.
