Anna Gray: Gary Coleman’s mystery heir

After the sad demise of Gary Coleman, there have been many wills that emerged on the surface causing enormous ambiguity with respect to transfer of deceased’s property. According to recent reports, a third will has emerged on the scene which mentions Anna Gray without mentioning Shannon Price who is the widow and the sole beneficiary of the property of Gary Coleman.

According to media reports, Price had become ‘hyperactive’ to cash in her husband’s death on May 28, 2010 and had become obsessed with having control on her husband’s property. She even made money by selling her husband’s death-bed photo.

The most recent will declares Anna Gray as the sole beneficiary of his estate. But the pertinent question arises in mind who is Anna Gray. According to Gary Coleman’s agent Malcom, Coleman and Gray became intimate friends in 1997 and they decided to stay together at Coleman’s house.

She had been living with him for many months in separate bed rooms. Afterwards, she was appointed as the CEO of Gary’s company. Then Coleman had interaction with Shannon Price and they got married in 2007.

Now the third will suggests that Anna Gray is the heir of his estate. After the marriage with Coleman, Price did not bear Gray and the couple asked her to leave from their residence. Later on, Coleman divorced Price but they again reconciled. But they never remarried.

The interesting thing about the new will is that it was drafted after Coleman had divorced Price. Price is claiming the estate as a common law wife and saying that all property should be transferred to her. But the Irony of Price’s fate is that Coleman did not even mention her name in the will which has surfaced recently.
