Coleman’s Ex Wife Wants To Become Executor Of His Estate

Shannon & Gary

This heffa Shannon Price has got some nerve. After selling photos of a dying Gary Colman in a hospital bed his ex-wife has now filed a petition to be appointed as the special administrator of the late actor’s estate, claiming she has an amended will signed in 2005 that grants her the authority to do so.

In the document, filed in 4th District Court in Provo, Shannon Price claims that despite their divorce in August 2008, she is still his common law wife and therefore should be the one to make funeral arrangements.

Price referred to Coleman as her husband when she called 911 on May 26, saying the actor had fallen and was bleeding severely from the back of his head. Coleman died two days later from a brain hemorrhage and his last-known will names friend and former manager Dion Mial as his estate’s executor.

Gary Coleman’s Wife Can’t Pay For His Funeral

Gary Coleman's ex-wife had a passion ... for getting pampered and spending money in Las Vegas -- but now she's begging Gary's fans to help her with his funeral costs.

In an interview shot the day after Gary's death -- and obtained by TMZ -- Shannon Price talks an awful lot about money ... bragging that she "bought high-end stuff" during trips to Vegas.

Price also says she's hard up for cash now because Gary couldn't get life insurance -- due to his kidney condition.  In another  video interview Shannon also talked about all the things Gary did for her like "buy her a car".  WTH!

I can't believe what this chick just said. She's looney!

Todd Bridges Claims ‘Gary Coleman had a Secret Will’

colemanbridgesTodd Bridges is claiming that Gary Coleman, his “Diff’rent Strokes” co-star, had a secret will at the time of his death that involves the exclusion of his parents.

Coleman, who passed away Friday after suffering a brain hemorrhage, has been estranged from his parents, Sue and Willie Coleman, since a 1989 court battle over his finances. The former child star successfully sued his parents and former manager for misappropriating his $3.8 million trust fund and, in 1993, he was awarded $1.28 million.

Although they are expected to attend his funeral in Utah this weekend, Bridges reveals there is an ongoing dispute with Coleman’s parents over the star’s final will.

He tells ETOnline.com, “(A friend of mine and I) have paperwork, and we’ll bring it out soon, that will show what his wishes were and what he wanted. There’s a big fight going on with his parents and some other people involved, and after we bring this paperwork out, everybody’s going to shut up.
