Shannon Price Abusive To Gary Coleman

Their marriage was certainly not a typical one, and it sounds like Gary Coleman and Shannon Price had more issues than anyone knew.

The late Coleman’s attorney, Randy Kester, says Price was often abusive toward him, calling him “stupid” and making comments about his height.

In an exclusive video interview with Radar Online, Kester also said, “Shannon would demean him and say very personal things about him in public... she would frequently call him stupid.”

Furthermore, Randy added that the couple did not sleep together and had separate bedrooms in their Santaquin, Utah, home, at the end of Coleman’s life.

Shannon Price's Day At The Courthouse

She’s fighting for the control over her late ex-husband Gary Coleman’s estate, and on (June 14) Shannon Price was spotted at a Provo, Utah courthouse.

Ms. Price was named as Coleman’s sole heir in his 2007 will, though his former girlfriend Anna Grey is fighting to change that.

And now, the late “Diff’rent Strokes” star’s cremation will be delayed even longer so that his ex-girlfriend can see his body.

As a result, the cremation process will not be permitted until this Thursday. And of course the legal battle is just getting started.

Coleman death certificate released

A death certificate released on Monday has revealed Gary Coleman's cause of death to be the accidental fall he suffered in his Utah home.

The document also lists renal failure as a contributing factor to his passing, reports US Weekly.

The actor had been feeling weak before the fall due to an intensive dialysis treatment he had undergone earlier in the day.

The certificate listed Shannon Price as the 42-year-old's spouse, despite the fact that the couple divorced in 2008.

Coleman died on May 28 after suffering a massive brain haemorrhage and slipping into a coma. Price removed his life support hours later.

Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman dead at 42

American actor Gary Coleman has died.

The Diff'rent Strokes star, who found fame at 11, was just 42.

He was taken to the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in Provo, Utah, after suffering a brain haemorrhage at home on Wednesday. The injury is believed have been caused by a fall.

Gary played Arnold Jackson in US TV series Diff'rent Strokes from 1978 to 1986 and is estimated to have earned - and lost - a £12 million fortune.

Gary filed for bankruptcy in 1999 and ended up working as a security guard.

Standing just 4ft 8in tall, he suffered from kidney condition nephritis and had two kidney transplants before the age of 14.

Gary's health had not been good in recent months and in January and February he suffered seizures.

'Thanks to everyone for their well wishing and support during this tragic time,' says Gary's manager.

'Gary is now at peace and his memory will be kept in the hearts of those who were entertained by him throughout the years.'
