Richard Simmons’ Estate Dispute Intensifies Between Family and Longtime Housekeeper

Teresa Reveles claims she was pressured into relinquishing her co-trustee role shortly after the fitness icon's death.

Richard Simmons died on July 13 at the age of 76 from complications of a fall and heart disease.
Teresa Reveles, Simmons’ housekeeper of 35 years, has filed a petition to be reinstated as co-trustee of his estate.
Reveles alleges that Simmons' brother, Leonard, and his wife, Cathy, pressured her into signing away her trustee role while she was grieving.
The Simmons family refutes Reveles' claims, accusing her of greed and asserting that she made an informed decision to decline the co-trustee role.
Reveles seeks to prevent Leonard from profiting from Simmons’ image and selling his assets until the court resolves the matter.
