'This was his decision': Woman refuses to give up life insurance payout after cheating ex leaves her 50% and his baby mama and kid only 25%

Life insurance policies can be a lifeline for grieving families, but they can also stir up some major drama. They're supposed to be a simple, straightforward way to the support loved ones left behind, but what happens when the payout doesn't go to who people expect? I recently came across a story where a woman was stunned to discover her mom had left everything to the neighbor instead of her. And as you can imagine, she wasn't exactly thrilled.

But sometimes, the drama isn't just about being left out; it's about who actually gets included. In this case, one woman found herself at the center of a family feud after her cheating ex passed away and left her 50% of his life insurance payout, while his baby mama and son only got 25% each. Not only that, but his car is also in her name, which apparently his baby mama needs for work. Now, she's being pressured to give up her share, but is she wrong for keeping it? Let's get into it.
