Wynonna Judd Blames Sister Ashley For Being Left Out of Naomi Judd's $25M Will – Here's Why
Are Wynonna and Ashley Judd, Naomi Judd's daughters, feuding?
This is said to be the result of the country singer's last will and testament, which was worth $25 million.
According to Radar Online, Wynonna is formally speaking with her lawyers about contesting her mother's estate. The magazine revealed Naomi Judd left her entire money and assets to her husband, Larry Strickland.
Naomi left no mention of her two daughters in her testament, which some found perplexing.
The decision prompted a rift between Wynonna and Ashley, with the latter allegedly siding with her late mother and stepfather.
According to an informant, the other half of The Judds was "baking on having a piece of the pie," feeling Ashley and Larry "conspired against her."
A family friend close to Ashley, she knew her mother understood what she was doing by not putting a large sum of money in Wynonna's lap.
"Wynonna has had money troubles her whole adult life," a family acquaintance stated. "She's spent every penny she earned with The Judds."
In 2004, she even reportedly enrolled into a rehab clinic for a "money issue!"
Wynonna and Ashley Judd have apparently been feuding since the beginning, with the former refusing to invite the latter, nor their mother, to her 2012 wedding to country singer Cactus Moser.
Their conflict reportedly began in 2013 when the actress claimed in court that her sister had hidden a monitoring device on her sister's car.
Naomi Judd, 76, tragically committed suicide on April 30. This was the culmination of a long and arduous fight with mental illness.
In her last will and testament, the singer said that she "nominates and appoints" her husband of 33 years as executor of her estate.
She then named Reginald Strickland, her brother-in-law, and Daniel Kris Wiatr as co-executors.
Wynonna announced the previously reported "The Judds: The Final Tour" some weeks following Naomi Judd's death.
Naomi's husband noted at the time that he was glad Wynonna consented to go forward with the tour, which his wife would have wanted her to do.
Though Ashley stated that she and her family had been closeafter Naomi Judd's death, it was later found that they have been estranged in the months since.
