According to an article in the NY Post, Jerry Lewish left nothing to his biological six children (including Gary Lewis) from his first 36-year marriage. Wow!

"The sole beneficiaries of Lewis’ estate are his second wife, SanDee, whom he married in 1983, and their daughter Danielle, 25, whom they adopted together in 1992." (Source: NY Post)
I wonder why all 6 kids were left out. He must have had a beef with all his biological kids.

Just a last mean slap from the grave:/

@tansy I agree. You would think that Lewis, who was an absent father when his kids were growing up and also cheating on their mother, would at least try to make it up to them by leaving them wealthy to make the rest of their lives more comfortable. But nooooooo.

What a meanand uncaring man he was.

Toxic parent

I saw the article this morning and didn't realize he had that many children!

Sad that he felt in death he needed to punish them. Of course, I don't know the particulars, you gotta wonder what the issues might have been.

I'm sure there is info out there somewhere, but you gotta wonder about a person who would leave this earth so angry.

I just read about this! What a shame! He left everything to current wife and their daughter. You have to wonder if she didn't have influence over him when it came to his older children. He might have changed his will long ago when they were newly married. It has happened in so many Hollywood families. What a shame!

If someone has/had six children and hates them all, they are/were a lousy parent.

Jerry Lewis, imo, was always an angry little man.

Some of my happiest moments were watching Martin and Lewis at the drive in!! Such a great duo!! I was so disappointed when they broke up. His last years had been medically difficult, time for him to rest!!

I read he had an adopted daughter with his last wife and that he left everything to the daughter. I wonder if we are talking about the same person.

No, not the same person. He has a daughter he has never acknowledged and she is living on the street. His adopted daughter and his current wife are is beneficiaries.
