Marvin Gaye's Adopted Son Ordered Out of Home ENTERTAINMENT LOS ANGELES, May 3, 2007 (CNS) - The late Marvin Gaye's adopted son must move out of the soul singer's former Hollywood Hills home, according to court papers. Trustees for Gaye's widow, 84-year-old Anna Gordy Gaye, wanted the son out of the home to sell it and use the money to to pay for the care of the elderly woman. Anna Gaye moved from the home in March 2005 because of Gaye III's alleged drug use, the lawsuit stated. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Charles E. Lee signed the judgment against Gaye III last Friday. Part of the money from the sale will be used for Gaye III's financial support, according to court papers. Gaye III's lawyer, Gregg J. Goldfarb, was not immediately available for comment. Anna Gaye is the oldest sister of Motown Records founder Berry Gordy. She currently lives under 24-hour care in a Westwood condominium and suffers from dementia, heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. Gaye III claimed in his court papers that he stopped using drugs and that his mother wanted to live with him at the residence. Anna Gaye married Marvin Gaye in 1964 and they adopted Gaye III a year later. She filed for divorce in 1975. Marvin Gaye was shot to death by his father in April 1984 at age 44. The father later pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and was placed on probation. He died in 1998. Copyright © 2007 KABC-TV and City News Service (CNS). All rights reserved.

The most we can do is pray for them  It does make one curious though about any money Anna made with the company. It seems as if certain monies are only being recieved by specific parties. |

This is way too sad and I don't think selling the house is the only option ((Kay)), it just happens to be the most obvious one ...hard to believe she doesn't have any money  |

I'm beginning to think Anna was loaned the money. I remember reading the liner notes of Here, My Dear and David said he interviewed Anna at, guess who's house: Berry Gordy's house!I began to wonder did she even have her own house with her own money? She probably didn't get royalties for co-writing "Baby I'm For Real" and "The Bells" with Marvin either. |

Yeah there is something quite 'off' about the situation...royalties or not Anna was a legit worker at the company for years on end so how come she doesn't have her own home ??...It's possible she may have squandered anything she did make but I just don't believe that...Anna always seemed to be a good business woman to me...

This is such a sad story. I wonder what's really happening too. Both of the people should have some money, one from working and the other from his father's estate. It's really sad to read a story like this. I hope Marv III is able and capable to care for his mother. At least she'll be with someone who knows her even if she can't remember him.

A few ?'s Who are these trustees Didn't Marvin and Anna get divorced Well, dementia doesn't mean she doesn't remember her son, but she's probably missing significant parts of her memory, but why can't someone care for her in her home or their home |

Hmm, those questions ponder me too, (((4ever))) but from how things are, we'll never truly know. I mean both Anna and Janis are not actually Marvin's widows and they weren't part of his will (basically because he was in debt at the time of his death). But I'm sure his estate got trustees from Anna's company or whatever.
