Michael Clarke Duncan’s tragic death on Monday devastated his family and friends, and now Breaking Celebrity News has exclusively learned that a woman claiming to be his daughter is trying to extort his estate for financial gain, telling his family she wants “what’s mine.”
Marqay Ambrose, 32, gave an interview to My Fox Chicago where she claimed that Duncan, 54, is her father and that they hadn’t spoken in eleven years.
"The only thing that really bothers me about him passing is that we didn't fix. That's the only thing that I hate. I hate it, but it doesn't bother me that I'm not mentioned," she said.
However, sources close to Duncan told Breaking Celebrity News that the family doesn’t know this woman and are questioning why she came forward after he died.
“Michael did date Marqay’s mother, but he believed he was not her father,” a source close to the late actor told Breaking Celebrity News. “He was in the hospital for 53 days, and she never once reached out or tried to talk to him then. It was the DAY he died that she started calling his mother saying ‘I want what’s mine’ and trying to get money from her."
