Acton 'heirs' seek DNA test on body in pounds 300m estate claim
|
A COURT in Florence is to decide whether to exhume the remains of
the British art connoisseur and friend of the Queen, Sir Harold
Acton, in a paternity claim arising from an alleged affair between
his father and a dental assistant.
The case, to be decided next month, has been brought by the heirs
of Liana Beacci, a Florentine innkeeper who claimed to be Sir
Harold's half-sister. If successful, it could lead to the break up of
Sir Harold's estate, worth hundreds of millions of pounds, including
a priceless art collection and a Renaissance villa set in the hills
above Florence.
