Naomi Judd dies without giving daughters any right to her will

Naomi Judd, a country singer, left her two children, Wynonna and Ashley, outright.

Instead, she named her husband of 33 years, Larry Strickland, as the executor of her inheritance.

Without the consent of any court, he will have “complete authority and discretion” over her assets.

After a protracted fight with her mental health, Judd shot herself to death on April 30 in an upper chamber of her Tennessee farmhouse.

She wrote her will in November 2017, almost five years before she passed away, and signed it when she was “sound of mind and disposing memory.”

Along with her eldest daughter Wynonna, 58, who is reportedly “upset” by the will, Judd was a part of the country singing duet The Judds.

According to the will, which Page Six reviewed, Strickland is entitled to “appropriate pay” for his work as executor of Judd’s estate.

Additionally, “appropriate expenses, advances and disbursements, including attorney’s and accountant’s fees, made or spent in the administration of my estate” may be paid to him or reimbursed to him.

The will also specifies that Reginald Strickland and the head of the Tennessee legal firm Wiatr & Associates would serve as co-executors if Strickland was unable to handle the estate’s administration due to illness, incapacity, or any other circumstance.

Wynonna and Ashley, both 54, didn’t answer right away when Page Six asked them for comment.

Wynonna, according to a source close to her, is upset over being left out of Judd’s will and “believes she was a significant influence behind her mother’s success,” according to Radar Online.
