The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin died without a will or trust in place...
Aretha Franklin did not have a will or trust when she died last week and now her estate will be equally divided amongst her four sons per Michigan law.
However, according to reports Aretha's longtime boyfriend Willie Wilkerson is gearing up for a court battle for his share of her $80 million estate.
Aretha and Willie were engaged to be married back in 2012 and while Aretha called off the wedding two weeks later [click here if you missed that] the couple remained together until the end.
