Chadwick Boseman's brothers challenge his widow over the actor's estate
Chadwick Boseman’s family faces a legal dispute over the late actor's estate
A new court battle has emerged surrounding the estate of late actor Chadwick Boseman. Four years after the "Black Panther" star passed away from colon cancer without a will, his brothers, Kevin and Derek Boseman, are taking legal action against his widow, Taylor Simone Ledward. Named administrator of the roughly $4 million estate after their quiet marriage shortly before his death, Ledward now faces allegations of mismanaging assets.
Court filings claim she has not distributed any funds to the family in nearly four years. The brothers, acting on behalf of their parents' legal share, have requested that the court hold Ledward in contempt and remove her from her administrative role. While Ledward’s legal team has offered no official comment, a court date is scheduled for September 29, leaving fans and legal experts watching to see if the family can reach a resolution.
