Kellie Pickler and the parents of her late husband, Kyle Jacobs, are currently embroiled in a legal dispute over Jacobs’ property. The disagreement has led to both parties heading to court after Pickler filed a petition against Reed and Sharon Jacobs, who are coadministrators of Kyle’s estate.
The petition, filed on August 16, reveals that a dispute has arisen regarding certain personal property that Kyle allegedly possessed before his death. Kyle tragically died by suicide on February 17, 2023, leaving behind Pickler, whom he had been married to since 2011.
According to the petition, Reed and Sharon created a document titled “List of Assets,” in which they demanded that Pickler turn over specific items. However, Pickler claims that she either does not have some of the requested items or that their ownership is in dispute. Some of the items being requested include Kyle’s gun collection, which includes rifles, pistols, a shotgun, a silencer, and a gun safe. Additionally, his parents are seeking his watches, jewelry, baseball card collection, musical instruments, and personal devices, among other things.
The petition also alleges that Reed and Sharon took items from Pickler’s home without her knowledge. In response, Pickler is seeking an order to identify the items that were taken from her home. Reed and Sharon dispute Pickler’s claim, stating that they retrieved the items with her consent and the guidance of her counsel.
Furthermore, Pickler has been granted a protective order preventing the sharing of the transcript or video of her deposition to protect her from any potential harm. However, Kyle’s parents are objecting to this order, arguing that it seeks to protect information that does not yet exist.
The case is ongoing, with Reed and Sharon filing their objection on November 7. The dispute over Kyle’s property continues to unfold in court, with both parties standing their ground on their respective claims and actions. As the legal battle persists, the fate of Kyle’s possessions remains uncertain, and the resolution of this conflict remains to be seen.
