Glen Campbell’s Will Excludes Three Of His Eight Children

At that point, Kim had moved her husband to a long-term care facility so he could get round-the-clock attention for his Alzheimer’s.

The brother and sister won their legal battle a year later, and Tennessee has since passed a law inspired by the case, which protects family members’ rights to see their loved ones who suffer from diseases similar to Alzheimer’s. Previously, the primary family member in charge of the sufferer was allowed to dictate who could and couldn’t get visitation.

Campbell had five other children from three other marriages. From his first wife Diane Kirk, he had Debby Campbell-Cloyd, now 61 (above). From this third marriage to Sarah Barg, he had son Dillon (below), now 37

Campbell’s most recent marriage was to Kim Woollen in 1982. He remained married to her for the rest of his life and had three more kids – including sons Cal (above), 34; and Shannon, 23 (below)

Campbell’s youngest daughter Ashley, with wife Kim, is now a country star in her own right. The 30-year-old is pictured below at the 2017 CMA Awards.

The battle clearly caused a rift in the family, with Campbell’s youngest daughter Ashley taking to Facebook to defend her mother at one point.

‘My mother Kim has endured unspeakable heartache and has selflessly and lovingly cared for my dad through every step of his disease and continues to do so,’ she wrote. ‘She has never denied any of his children a visit, including Debby and Travis who see him regularly yet continue to spread malicious lies about her…They have visitation rights, so what else do they want? One answer: the limelight.’

At stake for the eight children is a fortune estimated at $50million. The will also says that Campbell also has real estate holdings outside of Nashville, Tennessee – where he was living at the time of his death.

A half of the fortune is expected to be put into a trust.

Campbell announced his diagnosis in 2011, and in 2014 released a film that chronicled his descent into Alzheimer’s called Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me.

Two days before his death, he released his final album, Adios, which was nominated posthumously for a Grammy this year. His song Arkansas Farmboy has also been nominated for an award.
