[NEWS] In Touch Weekly Claims, "Jennifer Is Cut Out of Nancy's Will"

According to the latest story from In Touch Weekly magazine, a report claims that Jennifer was apparently cut out from her mother, former model/actress Nancy Dow's, will before the following years of her untimely death. An alleged source told the publication that Nancy's belongings were left to another relative, with Jennifer receiving nothing.

The source claims,
"Nancy changed her will about a year ago, and no one in the family knew a thing about it."

As we're all aware Jennifer and her mother have been estranged from one another for years, with the pair only recently reuniting just two weeks before Dow's death May 25, 2016. However, despite their estrangement, Jennifer would still assist her mother financially, according to In Touch. The insider claimed, "Even though Jen and Nancy had a very strained relationship, Jen still paid most all of Nancy's medical bills in her final years."

In Touch claims that Nancy bequeathed her property as well as her belongings including her condo and more than $1-million dollars that she'd saved to another relative, who has gone unmentioned. Among the items left to the unidentified family member was apparently a collection of Dow's personal writings about her famous daughter.

A source claims,
"Nancy wrote down everything about Jen, and that material is now in he hands of someone who could profit from it."

Jennifer and her rarely seen maternal half-brother assistant director John Melick, announced the death of their mother in a statement to People magazine: "It is with great sadness that my brother John and I announce the passing of our mother Nancy Dow. She was 79-years old and passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends after enduring a long illness. We ask that our family's privacy be respected as we grieve our loss."

In Touch previously claimed that Jennifer attended a private funeral service for her mother at Dow's Los Angeles, California apartment with husband screenwriter/actor Justin Theroux. Jennifer said in the past that she had a complicated relationship with her mother because Dow was, "very critical of her."

In an earlier interview with The Hollywood Reporter magazine Jennifer said,
"Because she [Nancy] was a model, she was gorgeous, stunning. I wasn't. I never was. I honestly still don't think of myself in that sort of light, which is fine. She was also VERY unforgiving. She would hold grudges that I found SO petty."

Jennifer's relationship with her mother became even more strained when Dow published a tell-all book about her daughter's life in 1999, titled From Mother and Daughter To Friends: A Memoir. The paired started to med their rift in 2005 following Jennifer's much-publicized divorce from then-husband actor Brad Pitt, but mother and daughter never fully healed.

At the time, Jennifer said during an interview in Good Morning America, "It's been really nice. It's crazy what, you know, your life kind of being turned upside down will lead you to. So this is good. It's baby steps," she said in regards to rekindling a relationship with her mother.

However, they had littler further contact until 2011 when Nancy suffered from a stroke - which is rumored to be the last time they saw each other until two weeks before Dow's death five years later according to In Touch. Dow was not invited to Jennifer's wedding to Justin, which took place August 5, 2015. Jennifer's father soap opera actor John Aniston, was apparently not in attendance either although she has remained close to him over the years.
