Chadwick Boseman’s Estate Will Split Evenly Between His Wife and Parents

The family of the late Chadwick Boseman will be splitting his estate in half.

According to Radar Online, Chadwick’s widow Taylor Simone Ledward and his parents will be dividing $3,881,758.31 and any other residuals.

The estate has pulled in over $230,000 since his death.

Ledward was put in charge of handling Boseman’s financial matters after his tragic death on August 28, 2020. The Black Panther actor battled colon cancer for four years and even went through chemotherapy while filming roles right up until his passing.

Boseman didn’t draft a will before he died. He married Ledward months before his death.

In accounting filing report, Ledward asked that she be reimbursed for certain expenses surrounding Boseman’s funeral. In total, she was reimbursed $47,000. 

At the moment, the estate is valued at $2.5 million on hand with $157k in cash. Another $900k was held as bond in the probate case. After a couple of bills are paid the amount, the amount dwindled down to $2.3 million.

Ledward asked the court to approve the estate being distributed 50% to her and the other half to Boseman’s parents.
