Billionaire SlimFast founder S. Daniel Abraham and his former wife Estanne have been embroiled in a huge struggle over the family fortune, Page Six can exclusively reveal.
The ugly battle is over $1 billion put into trusts for their kids. Abraham, 91, sold SlimFast to Unilever in 2000 for $2.3 billion. He put a billion of that money into trust funds for his four daughters with Estanne, who was made a trustee before she and Abraham divorced in 1993.
