Robin Williams’ Widow Susan Schneider Williams, Children Finally End Legal Feud Over Late Comedian's Estate

Susan Williams has reached an agreement with Robin Williams' children regarding the estate dispute.

The ongoing legal feud between Robin Williams' widow and his three children from the past marriages eventually reached a settlement over the late comedian's estate on Oct. 2, Friday. The settlement between the two sides ended the long-running public dispute followed by the suicide of the loved entertainer.

In a statement obtained by People, Susan Schneider Williams said, "While it's hard to speak of this as a win, given it stems from the greatest loss of all, I am deeply grateful to the judge for helping resolve these issues. I can live in peace knowing that my husband's wishes were honored."

The attorney for the late actor's three children from earlier marriage Zachary Williams, Cody Williams and Zelda Williams, Meredith Bushnell said that her clients are satisfied with what is left for them.

According to The Financial Express, Susan's attorney Jim Wagstaffe said in a statement that his client can retain a few emotional belongings that she claimed, such as the watch her husband wore quite often, some of his clothes, wedding possessions and the bike the couple purchased on their honeymoon, and can also continue to live in the house they shared and receive lifelong living expenses thereafter.

It further stated that while out of the $100 million estate value the three children will receive a major portion of the items they claimed which included more than 85 watches and 50 bikes over and above the many Academy Award sculpture's received by the late thespian, Susan's will be entitled only to a certain portion which is sufficient enough for the rest of her life.

The "Jumanji" actor's wife had filed a lawsuit back in December claiming that she was not receiving enough maintenance from Susan's estate to maintain Tiburon, their California home that she shared with her husband prior to his death.
