Michelle and Derek claim that they have been excluded from sharing in their late father's estate especially after their mother, Yvonne Wamalwa, passed away.

"It was meant to cast our family in a bad light. It is regrettable and sad that this matter has turned out this way," Alice and her two brothers suggested after Michelle and Duke spoke to the media about the family feud.
