Apparently the will divides his estate between his mother, 3 children, and one or more charities. The will named lawyer John Branca and music executive John McClain as executors. They will be the ones administering the will for the estate. According to the article, it is still unclear who will be appointed guardian of his children, or if it was even mentioned in the will.
What is clear is that this will be a mess moving forward because of what appears to be shoddy estate planning.
