“Daughter” of Billionaire to Inherit $8.5 Million

KerkorianKirk Kerkorian, founder of MGM Resorts International, died last year, and now his daughter will receive $8.5 million under his will. His 18-year-old daughter was submerged into a messy paternity battle; her mother, who was married to Kerkorian for 28 days, claimed that Kerkorian was her biological father. However, it was later discovered that another man was actually the biological father. After having raised her for most of her childhood, Kerkorian decided to provide for her with a will bequest.
