The relationship soured a little before George passed away. He accused her of wanting him only so that she could profit from her. The late singer claimed that he has always been there for his children. And, he could never let them go hungry.
But things took a wrong turn when Jones felt like Georgette and her husband were trying to get money from him in the worse way possible.

The sons and the dad was not even on talking terms. Once Georgette got close to them, Jones tried to cut her off from his life. Her two brothers walked her down the aisle at her wedding while George had a concert on the same day.

After Susan filed a lawsuit against Nancy, the case settled with her getting $2 Million.
