95-year-old comic book legend, Stan Lee, and his troubled relationship with his only child, 67-year-old J.C. Lee has led to allegations against the latter. The younger Lee is accused of inflicting both physical and psychological abuse upon her father, as well as her mother, Joan Lee, prior to Joan’s death in July of last year.
An in-depth report by
The Hollywood Reporter contains a notarized document from February 13, 2018, where Stan Lee signed a declaration at the office of his then-attorney, Tom Lallas, where Lee accused three men, Jerardo “Jerry” Olivarez (Lee’s primary caregiver at the time), Keya Morgan (Lee’s current primary caregiver) and Kirk Schenck (J.C. Lee’s attorney) of taking advantage of J.C. in an attempt to “gain control over my assets, property and money.”
Within days, however, Lallas was out as as Lee’s attorney and a number of other people in Lee’s life were also removed (a new attorney, a new accountant, a new assistant, a new housekeeper and a new gardener) as Morgan’s control over Lee’s life continued. Morgan released a video of Lee from April 7, where Lee denounces the previously-signed declaration. In the video, Lee states, “My relationship with my daughter has never been better, and my friend Keya Morgan and I also have a great relationship.”
