There's a lot to unpack there.Our dad passed leaving the house in the will to be sold and divoded among the three children. His partner refuses to leave the house and wants to stay there until she dies and then have the house sold. She has two other properties and a lot of money in the bank. She is not and has never paid any bills in the house. She threatened to put in a claim if asked to leave. What is she entitled to if she puts in a claim? They were together 18 years. Can she put in a claim to stay ? If she does that does she get an entitlement tomstay until its resolved legally? I know she put in a claim of course for anything but what are her entitlements?
Even if (as it seems) you have little regard for them; believe that your parent clearly did.your father's partner of 18 years

There could have been other reasons for this that we don't know about.deceased marry his partner so that she would inherit
People who meet other people do not consider what will happen when they die 18 years later. He might not have been able to marry if still married to someone else. You cannot know the wishes of the deceased based on his will, which might have been made prior to his meeting his partner of 18 years.What did the deceased want?
Did the deceased marry his partner so that she would inherit? No.
The wishes of the deceased seem very clear to me.
I go by an unchanged will and his actions, which both imply he didn’t want his partner to inherit anything.You cannot know the wishes of the deceased based on his will, which might have been made prior to his meeting his partner of 18 years.
I would go along with that, particularly as the O/P said the partner owns 2 other properties and has a lot of cash in the bank.I go by an unchanged will and his actions, which both imply he didn’t want his partner to inherit anything.
She's not denying them their inheritance though. She wants to stay there until she dies, then they'll inherit the house. If it was their mother there they would have to wait for their inheritance. What's the difference?I would go along with that, particularly as the O/P said the partner owns 2 other properties and has a lot of cash in the bank.
As someone else pointed out she can buy the house if she wants to stay there, why deny her deceased partners children their inheritance.

Nobody is denying the children 'their inheritance'. They've waited this long for 'their' inheritance, so what if they've to 'wait' another while.I would go along with that, particularly as the O/P said the partner owns 2 other properties and has a lot of cash in the bank.

Which is why there are some legal options for the partner of 18 years. In recognition of people not thinking thru and sorting out legal messes as regards homes.I go by an unchanged will and his actions, which both imply he didn’t want his partner to inherit anything.
