My Mum and Dad have been divorced for 18 years.
They were only married for 15 years.
My mother has now been married to her current husband for 9 years but together with him for 16 years.
My parents are still friends and I have recently found out from my mother that in their divorce agreement, she gets everything when my dad dies.
(My Dad is 15 years older than her so this is likely)
I am very low contact with my mother because she is an emotionally abusive and controlling woman and she is very grabby when it comes to money. (she was like that with her brother and his wife when both my grandparents died)
My dad is very old fashioned (he is 80) and will not discuss finances / his will etc.
AIBU to think my mother is being insanely grabby to get everything my dad (who still works!) has made for himself when they were together such a short time relatively and he’s worked hard for his comfort and life and then she grabs it all & leaves my brother and I with nothing!
Because I am low contact and tbh probably going NC soon, I know that she will write me out of her will too.
I also think she will TRY not to let us have a say in the funeral and packing up his belongings when in fact we are his next of kin.
I’m considering contesting the will when my dad dies, is that unreasonable?
