"In England, the rule is if you can’t tell from a document what you’re meant to do then you’re allowed to look at all the surrounding evidence," Tamasin explains. "For Kendall that doesn’t really look very good".

"[The court] would think it’s more likely that [Kendall's name on the will] was crossed out than underlined.”
