New reports
claim that Ali Jr., the son of legendary boxer, Muhammad Ali, has dumped
his wife and two children after inheriting $80million from his father’s
fortune.

to a high class part of the city upon getting his inheritance, barely a month
after his father’s death.

children reportedly met in California after their father’s death, to discuss
how to divide their father’s wealth.

wife Shaakira and their children, 8-year-old Ameera, and 7-year-old
Shakera had been living on food stamps, and this was because the father of two

In his interview
with Daily Mail shortly after the death of Muhammad Ali, his son, who had
has been battling drug addiction, said he had minimal contact with his sisters.
“I’m trying to
live life, and be good. I saw him on his 72nd birthday, then on his 73rd
birthday, I sung happy birthday to him, and I heard nothing back, he didn’t
respond and I know it was the Parkinson’s. I knew he was in a pretty bad
shape,” he said.
“I don’t discuss
my father to my sisters about anything, I don’t have anybody I can confide in,
so I don’t do that. I don’t really care anymore about being cut off from the
family.
“I’ve got
through so much things in my life, I’ve got to the point where it doesn’t
matter anymore, I live for me. I live life. I know that the last thing
about Parkinson’s is being bed ridden, and he’s been laid up in bed for
months,” he continued.
“My grandfather
also has Parkinson’s, I don’t think about my father, when my grandfather is in
Flossmoor, I’m close to him, more than I am my father. I’ve got to serve my
purpose and help my grandfather Sada Ali-Din, at least I’m helping
somebody. He’s got Parkinson’s, my mother’s father. He lives with Amina.
“It’s just not
something that I worry about, I’ve got more things to worry about than my
father, I got to live life,” Ali Jr. concluded.
