Kerri also said that Jean last week sent a letter to the lawyer in charge of his will saying she’s “coming after” the irrevocable trust Casey set up for his kids 30 years ago, which Kerri said is “the only thing our dad left us.”
Casey’s daughter said she has no idea when the animosity between her and Jean began or why.

“If I knew, I would tell you,” Kerri said on Thursday’s View. “I would try to make amends. I would say, ‘I’m sorry Jean. What happened? … Why do you hate us so much?’ ”
Kerri added that she hasn’t seen Jean in 15 years apart from once in passing at a hospital and talking to her twice on the phone.
