Yesterday we saw two more interviews with Gary Coleman’s scary ex, Shannon Price, who has been cashing in on his death by shopping paid interviews in the $50,000 range. Price also reportedly sold photos of Gary taken in the hospital for at least five figures. She’s even said to be charging more for a photo taken after Gary was dead. This is despite the fact that Shannon claimed she was looking out for Gary’s interests and that she wasn’t going to have a funeral in order to honor his wishes. “He didn’t want people to see him that way… so I’m going to do what he wants.”

It’s obvious that Price is a disturbed individual who is plotting ways to profit off her husbands death. She’s also scheming to inherit whatever he had left. She said on Entertainment Tonight that she had a more recent will from Gary than the one from 1999 held by his former manager, and that of course “he wanted me to have everything.” A handwritten 2007 addendum to the earlier will does exist, according to Radar Online. However a lawyer for the executor states that the statement from Gary leaving everything to Shannon is invalid now that they’re divorced.

As RadarOnline.com revealed, the Diff’rent Strokes star left behind two wills: an original he authored in 1999 and a second, leaving everything to Shannon Price, the 24-year-old who is weathering a storm of controversy in the wake of her ex-husband’s death. The second will is actually a hand-written codicil.

Utah attorney Kent Alderman — who represents Dion Mial, the man named as the executor of Coleman’s estate — has claimed the hand-written codicil, written in 2007, is invalid because Price and Coleman later divorced.

“The act of getting divorced would revoke that will,” Utah attorney Stephen J. Buhler told RadarOnline.com.

“Unless she [Shannon] could show something that stated he [Gary] intended to leave everything to her even after the divorce, the will is null and void.”

“If they just had something handwritten, they probably did not think about the consequences later if they should get divorced.”

Mial is named as executor of Coleman’s 1999 will and stands to benefit substantially because of a trust provision, which his lawyer Kent Alderman tells RadarOnline.com stands as the valid will.

“It’s at least a presumption that once you get divorced you don’t intend on leaving everything to that person anymore,” Buhler concluded.

Shannon appeared on Good Morning America Monday saying her and Gary had intended to remarry, but never did.

Radar has some follow-ups to this story, with a claim from Shannon’s rep that she was “double crossed” by the executor after she paid his legal bills to help fight a challenge by Gary’s parents to the late actor’s now-canceled funeral in Utah. Shannon now claims to be locked out of her home, with a vague accusation that the executor is responsible. It sounds like she’s grasping at straws in an attempt to discredit the guy who stands to inherit the money she considers hers.

Shannon is of course fighting for her right to milk Gary’s estate dry after she’s done dancing on his corpse. Her rep tells Radar that “We have a retained a high-profile attorney. We have enough documentation that shows that everything will go to Shannon.” I hope the judge that presides over this case has a chance to watch some of the interviews that Shannon granted after Gary’s death. There’s no question that she regarded him as little more than a cash machine. Thank goodness Gary had the sense to divorce her, but it’s a shame that he never kicked her out of the house. His life may have depended on it.
