I've seen this on E! True hollywood story lol (remember anna nicole smith?)
Unfortunately, there have been many similar cases in Egypt. A typical scenario is after the man dies, his 30/40 something year old children end up taking the new wife and mother of their baby brother/sister to court (the new wife wastes no time getting pregnant, this way she's guaranteed to get at least 1/3 the fortune). Sadly this always tears families apart.
I wonder why 25 years though, that's still a huge gap in my opinion. Oh, by the way, Gamal Mubarak (our Pharoah in waiting) just got married to an Egyptian business tycoon's daughter, Khadija El Gamaal. Khadija is in her early 20's and Gamal Mubarak is 45 years old. He just meets the age limit
Khadija with first lady Suzanne Mubarak.
