It’s true that after Brittany died, her husband took almost 80% of her cash. Brittany’s former manager confirmed the news. Morgenroth added:

There were huge amounts of money in [Brittany’s] pension plan and bank account, and all of that’s gone. I would see it on the statements. There was money being withdrawn by Simon, hundreds of thousands.
