Moises de la Renta, 30, is the son of iconic designer, Oscar de la Renta.
De La Renta adopted him from an orphanage in their native Dominican Re- public (Yes, O.d.l.R was born in the Dominican Republic) when the baby was only 24- hours old. The adoption took place following the death of de la Renta’s first wife, Françoise, who died of cancer.
But it turns out, Moises made daddy (who passed away last October at the age of 82) mad and now he may not be getting “anything to write home about” from his dad’s $26 million dollar estate.
According to court docu- ments filed in Litchfield County Probate Court in Con- necticut, his widow, Annette de la Renta, who he had been married to for 25-years, is set to inherit all of the de- signer’s belongings. She will also get a $13 million Park Av- enue apartment, a $2.8 mil- lion Connecticut home, and their estate in the Dominican Republic.
Annette was put in con- trol of the funds, and Oscar’s stepdaughter Eliza Bolen was named as an alternate ex- ecutor of the will, according to Page Six.
