Party princess Paris Hilton is $60 million out of pocket after her billionaire grandfather - appalled by her jail term for drink-driving offences - axed her inheritance.

Family patriarch Barron Hilton was already embarrassed by his granddaughter's wild behaviour - notably when her home sex video was leaked on the internet.

Finally someone in the Hilton clan does something to bring their name back to a positive light. Can we NOW stop talking about her?

There isn’t a $1,000 an hour lawyer in this country who wouldn’t jump at the chance to represent her in the will challenge when grandpa kicks the bucket.

She won’t get that, but she doesn’t need it. She’s got plenty of her own already.

Apparently he’s going to donate the dough to a charity while he’s alive so it’ll never get into the hands of his heirs.

My grandmother willed half her estate to charity, which is probably not uncommon.
