The aftermath of Ricky Hatton’s sudden death has taken a heartbreaking turn, as his last will and testament has reportedly ignited a bitter feud within the family — one that has now escalated to the courtroom.
Sources close to the Hatton family reveal that Ricky’s final wish, which was expected to bring closure, has instead become a source of division. His children, longtime partner, and siblings are said to be fighting over the distribution of his multi-million-dollar estate, each claiming that their interpretation of Ricky’s intentions is the correct one.
Court documents reportedly show disagreements over the ownership of properties, shares in Ricky’s boxing businesses, and even memorabilia from his legendary career. One insider described the atmosphere as “heartbreaking,” saying,
“They should be grieving together, but instead they’re facing each other across a courtroom. It’s tearing them apart.”
Fans of the boxing icon have expressed sadness online, with many calling for the family to find peace. “He fought his whole life for unity and pride,” one supporter wrote. “He wouldn’t want to see his loved ones at war like this.”
Legal experts warn the case could become one of the most closely watched inheritance battles in recent memory, with hearings scheduled over the coming weeks.
Despite the conflict, friends say there is still hope for reconciliation. “Ricky loved his family more than anything,” one friend said. “If there’s any chance they can come together and honor his memory, this is the time.”
