Ray Watts’ stepdaughter and cleaner are locked in a bitter legal row over his £200,000 stamp collection An elderly stamp collector is at the centre of a bitter legal row after he sold his £200,000 collection to his cleaner for a pound and left her the majority of his wealthy estate. Ray Watts had previously wanted to split his estate among his family but changed his will two years before his death in 2021 and cut them out of it.
’ Her barrister Nathan Wells said Mr Watts had been described in hospital as ‘confused with a reduced level of consciousness’ and that there had been a ‘slowing of his thinking.’ There was also evidence of ‘significant’ involvement of Mrs Pope in the making of the will, she having contacted the solicitors to attend to Mr Watts in hospital, he said.
