Further into the will, David reiterated that Katie, 31, and her descendants could not inherit his property.

“Fifty percent of such property shall be distributed among the persons who would have been entitled thereto under the laws of descent and distribution of the State of Florida….provided, however, that neither Katherine Evelyn Cassidy nor her descendants shall be considered to be my descendants,” the documents said.

According to the documents, David had only $150,000 in assets at the time of his death.
