Jimmy Buffett's 'upset and confused' widow locked in legal row over late singer's $275M fortune


The Margaritaville singers's widow Jane Buffett said in legal docs she believes the executor of the state is not being forthright about the $275 million.

The singer-songwriter, who popularized beach bum soft rock with the escapist Caribbean-flavored song Margaritaville and turned that celebration of loafing into a billion-dollar empire of restaurants, resorts and frozen concoctions died at the age of 76 on September 1, 2023. 'Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs,' a statement posted to Buffett's official website and social media pages said at the time. The song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2016 for its cultural and historic significance, became a karaoke standard and helped brand Key West, Florida, as a distinct sound of music and a destination known the world over.
