Prince’s estate is finally settled after a 6-year battle

Prince's estate is finally settled following a six-year court battle.

When the singer died at age 57 in 2016, he did not leave a will for his $156 million estate. With no living children or spouse, under Minnesota law his six half-siblings were named as his legal heirs.

Now, the Minnesota first judicial district has ordered that the cash in Prince’s estate be split evenly between two LLC holding companies: Prince Legacy LLC and Prince Oat Holdings LLC.

Three of Prince's half-siblings sold their interests in the estate to the publishing company 'Primary Wave,' which is now owned by Prince Oat Holdings.

The other three half-siblings did not sell their interests and currently control 'Prince Legacy,' alongside their advisers.
