Malcolm-Jamal Warner’s widow, Dr. Tenisha Warner, has filed a $1.2 million lawsuit against his mother, Pamela Warner, who serves as trustee of the Warner Family Trust. The lawsuit alleges Malcolm failed to fulfill financial obligations outlined in their 2022 prenuptial agreement, including securing a $1 million life insurance policy naming Tenisha as the sole beneficiary, funding a Roth IRA, and other promised payments. Tenisha is seeking repayment from the family trust, along with interest and legal fees. The legal action was filed on the first anniversary of the actor’s accidental drowning death in Costa Rica.
