Gizelle Bryant Shares an Update on Her Father's Will: "We're Still..."
RHOP's Gizelle Bryant's dad passed away in 2023 following a battle with brain cancer.
Gizelle Bryant's father, Curtis Graves, passed away in 2023, but The Real Housewives of Potomac cast member is still dealing with issues stemming from his will.
The mom of three first publicly discussed the drama surrounding Curtis' will on Season 9, Episode 10 (which you can check out by watching the clip above). Then, on the December 8 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Gizelle offered an update on where thing stand with the will today.
"We're still working [on it]," she told host Andy Cohen. "Actually, depositions happen today. Yeah."
Gizelle Bryant discusses her father's will with her three daughters
Gizelle explained the "complicated" situation to her daughters, Grace, Angel, and Adore Bryant, on the show.
"It is so complicated, OK?" Gizelle told her daughters about her dad, who died from brain cancer. "So, he had a will that we think somebody threw in the trash can the last week that he was alive."
“For whatever reason, two days after his brain surgery, someone around him had a will signed, supposedly by him,” Gizelle added in an interview on the episode. "And I was with him actually. He was not able to sign anything, read anything — none of that."
As a result, Gizelle is contesting the document.
“And if it’s thrown out, that means that he died without a will, and that means that in the state of Georgia, his children get two thirds of his estate,” Gizelle told her daughters. “But in the will that’s fraudulent, we get nothing. And it’s as if you guys don’t exist either. It’s all very painful, because I don’t want to have to go through this. I know that he didn’t want me to have to go through this."
According to the RHOP cast member, the discussion surrounding the new will would be the last thing her dad wanted.
"My dad stood on making sure that generational wealth is passed," Gizelle said in her confessional. "Nothing was left to me and nothing was left to my children, my father’s grandchildren — which were probably more important to him than me."
Does Gizelle Bryant have siblings?
Gizelle has two siblings, an older brother named Chris Graves, and a sister.
Gizelle's dad Curtis shared his three children with his ex-wife, Joanne Graves. At the time of his death, he was married to Kay Bryant.
