Helmsley Dog Gets $12 Million, but Real Estate Billionaire Leaves Nothing to 2 Grandchildren

NEW YORK (AP) -- Leona Helmsley's dog will continue to live an opulent life, and then be buried alongside her in a mausoleum. But two of Helmsley's grandchildren got nothing from the late luxury hotelier and real estate billionaire's estate.

Helmsley left her beloved white Maltese, named Trouble, a $12 million trust fund, according to her will, which was made public Tuesday in surrogate court.

She also left millions for her brother, Alvin Rosenthal, who was named to care for Trouble in her absence, as well as two of four grandchildren from her late son Jay Panzirer -- so long as they visit their father's grave site once each calendar year.

Otherwise, she wrote, neither will get a penny of the $5 million she left for each.

Helmsley left nothing to two of Jay Panzirer's other children -- Craig and Meegan Panzirer -- for "reasons that are known to them," she wrote.

But no one made out better than Trouble, who once appeared in ads for the Helmsley Hotels, and lived up to her name by biting a housekeeper.

"I direct that when my dog, Trouble, dies, her remains shall be buried next to my remains in the Helmsley mausoleum," Helmsley wrote in her will.

The mausoleum, she ordered, must be "washed or steam-cleaned at least once a year." She left behind $3 million for the upkeep of her final resting place in Westchester County, where she is buried with her husband, Harry Helmsley.

She also left her chauffeur, Nicholas Celea, $100,000.

She ordered that cash from sales of the Helmsley's residences and belongings, reported to be worth billions, be sold and that the money be given to the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust.

Her longtime spokesman, Howard Rubenstein, had no comment.

Helmsley died earlier this month at her Connecticut home. She became known as a symbol of 1980s greed and earned the nickname "the Queen of Mean" after her 1988 indictment and subsequent conviction for tax evasion. One employee had quoted her as snarling, "Only the little people pay taxes."

Ahh yes. Leona, the Queen of Mean. She, Tammy Fay and Imelda defined a certain class of Bi-atch during the '80s. Now two of them are dead. Anyone want to place bets on Imelda?

Imelda is living back in the PI, she's 78 and the rumor is she will run for Mayor of Metro Manila this year so I give her a death watch designation since somebody pissed at her shoe buying escapades will likely shoot her on the campaign trail.

Ismelda as mayor of Manila is equivalent to Hitler being elected PM of Israel. Talk about unlikely political comebacks... even more unlikely than Marion Barry's.

The Dog may have $12 Million, but it's got nowhere to go:


September 4, 2007 -- She was left $12 million, but money can't buy Trouble love.

Leona Helmsley's petite, pampered pooch has been living with the hired help at the late Queen of Mean's Connecticut estate because her new owner doesn't want to have anything to do with her, The Post has learned.

In her will, Helmsley asked that her brother, Alvin Rosenthal, take care of the dog, but a source said he "doesn't want it." ARTICLE

I read an article a few months ago about it. She probably changed her mind. I know her daughter has been trying to get into PI politics also. They should just take the millions they stole from the country and get out of Makati to Hong Kong or Singapore and leave those poor folks alone. R
