Susan Williams has reached an agreement with Robin Williams' children regarding the estate dispute while the late actor's diagnosis confirmed that the celebrity had suffered from dementia.

During a "Good Morning America" interview on Nov. 4, Wednesday, Robin Williams' widow Susan talked in depth about how the $100 million estate issue "forced" her to take legal action in December 2014.

Susan's attorney James Wagstaffe confirmed to the Associated Press that the strife had been settled out of court on Oct. 2, according to Los Angeles Times. The attorney of Robin's children, on the other hand, questioned why Susan would disagree to the trust that meticulously distributed the late comedian's assets.

The widow said that she decided to face Robin Williams' children when the actor's trust caused confusion.  

Specifically, some of the remaining items were difficult to label as either a personal belonging or a celebrity token. Robin's wife, who spent seven years together with the actor, became deeply upset that even the wedding gifts the couple received were also considered as celebrity keepsakes.

Most of the comedian's assets were assigned to his children, and the trust also indicated how the Williams' house in Tiburon, California would be financially maintained.

Meanwhile, Susan also disclosed during the "Good Morning America" program that Robin Williams had Lewy body dementia. A problem with the disease, the "Mrs. Doubtfire" actor's wife explained, was that the confirmation was only possible after Robin's death. According to ABC News, the comedy actor was initially diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

However, Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) is only related to Parkinson's disease. Aside from LBD, Susan believes that her husband had severe bouts of anxiety and depression. The actor's widow thinks that Robin Williams committed suicide on Aug. 11, 2014 to stop the disease from further ruining the actor's life.

The dementia severely affects about a million people in the United States, primarily by causing cognitive degeneration. People with LBD slowly lose control of their ability to think in an abstract and analytical manner.
