Gene Hackman, 95, and wife Betsy Arakawa, 65, died in 2025; their $80M estate is now in probate amid family disputes.
Gene Hackman, 95, and his wife Betsy Arakawa, 65, are buried in a private, unmarked grave at a Santa Fe memorial garden, marked only by a conch shell.
Found dead in their home in February 2025, Betsy died from hantavirus, and Hackman died a week later from heart disease and Alzheimer’s.
Their estate, worth an estimated $80 million, was left entirely to Betsy in Hackman’s 2005 will, but she predeceased him, leaving the inheritance’s fate uncertain.
Their three adult children, excluded from the will, have filed to become interested parties in probate.
The estate has generated income through property sales and an auction of personal items, while ongoing legal matters include disputes over autopsy photos and settling debts.
