Muhammad Ali’s son ditches family after getting dad’s cash

Muhammad Ali Jr., the estranged son of late boxing legend Muhammad Ali, dumped his wife and two children — all after a windfall of cash from his dad’s estate, RadarOnline reports.

The Web site claims Ali Jr. and his eight siblings met with Ali’s widow, Lonnie, on June 28 to talk about how to split up The Greatest’s estate.

While Lonnie kept the house, all nine children allegedly received equal shares of Ali’s $80 million fortune.

Now, Ali Jr. has used the influx of cash to move out of his family home in Chicago’s South Side and relocate to a wealthier part of the city — but he didn’t take his family with him. For the past decade, he and his wife, Shaakira, and children Ameera, 8, and Shakera, 7, have relied on food stamps and handouts to survive, a source revealed.

Ali Jr. himself was estranged by his famous father and struggled without his support.
