Executors defending Richard Foxton's estate are backing a property handover worth 10 million rand to Thuli Madonsela after the late PR guy switched his bequest from cash to a Cape Town golf estate house months before dying. His four kids are beefing with the former Public Protector over which will count, the 2020 cash version or the 2025 property one, and handwriting experts jumped in to check if signatures got forged or messed with.
Madonsela filed court papers claiming the older will better reflect their relationship and arguing the newer document looks sketchy, given Foxton croaked four months after signing it. The executors insist they have to follow what they see as his final wishes, while the children want their trust protected from getting carved up.
Reddit types rallied behind Madonsela, saying it feels gross to nickel-and-dime someone who already has her coins and questioning why the kids would block their dad's partner from getting looked after properly.
