Jay Leno makes drastic life-altering decision amid wife’s dementia diagnosis
Jay Leno, 73, seeks conservatorship over his wife Mavis Leno’s estate due to her dementia. Court documents highlight her declining capacity to manage her affairs. Leno aims to implement an estate plan he believes she would have done herself if able. Doctors cite Mavis’ unspecified dementia causing memory loss and delusions.
Leno has managed their finances throughout their 43-year marriage and will continue to do so. The hearing, scheduled for April 9, indicates Mavis’ unwillingness to attend but her lack of opposition to the conservatorship.
