A BRILLIANT END FOR HANK WILLIAMS DAUGHTER THANK YOU FOR TELLING THE WHOLE STORY
The best part of this story, she has a brother, a half brother: and they are living their lives happy as brother & sister:
No money can buy this relationship: it comes from the heart:
Rest in Peace Mr Hank Williams:
What a lovely ending for a lovely lady.
What an amazing story....I am so happy for her...Her dad is smiling down on her.❤❤❤
If he didn’t die, this story wouldn’t be needed, it will be a totally different story.
Glad that her adoptive father had been honest with Cathy
I liked the tasteful acting of Cathy's story. The real people of the day speaking in their older appearance works well too: and the clever camera work and lighting and angles to get the speakers eyes and heart-felt thoughts.
Well done to everyone who took part in this production and so nice to hear that Cathy reconciled with Hank Jr.

After reading the credits, and noticing the numerous French names, I observed that this show was made in Quebec. Although I liked it, as a Canadian citizen, I've really got to wonder, why, how, and who approved the government grant to make this show. Especially when there is zero Canadian content. That being said, I'm happy that Hank William's look-a-like daughter was finally recognized, rewarded her rightful inheritance, and reunited with her brother.
Lovely ending to an incredible story 💖
So inspiring.. you made me cry.. love fr the phils😊
Am so pleased for you ... most importantly that you are the child that both your parents wanted and was proved - that in itself was the greatest victory & blessing.
Glad that common sense finally prevailed in the Court hearing.
Money has always been the root cause of so much evil in our World and the irony is that when we die we can't take it with us to our grave.
She’s definitely Hank’s daughter. Anyone can see that just by looking at her. A DNA test would only confirm it.
Hello my name is Sally Ann your story , gave me a lump in my throat. My husband was all country who introduced me to country music.He loved your father's music ,and had all of his records also he took me to the town "s country and western clubs. This was from the middle of the sixties .He would have loved to be able to seen His daughters struggle and not happy about your struggle to prove you were his daughter. I am sorry about the conspiracy, but very happy when the struggle ended. I never new my father. Like you married my soul mate ,I was very fortunate like you. 👍
A BEAUTIFUL END TO SUCH A GREEDY FAMILY !!!! LOVE YOU GIRL AND KNOW YOUR DADDY IS "NOW" HAPPY TOO
that the {The Adoptee } was ; in the first instancce was wanted by their biological parent is ;in my PERSONAL opinion worth more than any sum of money' '
This was fascinating. She was adopted out 2 years after his death so she should have inheritance as she was not adopted at the time of his death. And there is resounding evidence that she was wanted.
Exactly 💯
This woman (Cathy) went through a lot
A fantastic ending to a story full of twists and turns. I'm so happy for Jett that things turned out well for her, NOT primarily for the money she was entitled to due to her being Hank's daughter but because she discovered her roots and her true love. As for the attorney who put down the court's decision as being unorthodox about adopted child being barred from inheriting from a natural parent under Alabama law, he comes across as a huge SORE LOSER!😅
Lol 😅 that's exactly what I thought.
He's such an arrogant person who seems to think that he is right about everything. 🤦🏻♀️
This is an incredibile true story!
Ive done some family history on many branches of the family tree. Ive been frustrated at missing records and perplexing mysteries but nothing like this story. I envy jett williams her utter determination and resillience right to the very end in obtaining what was rightfully hers. Of course with the help of her husband attorney things were a tad easier than it would have been if he wasnt there. Wishing them a long and happy marriage❤
Daddys double! Her dads music is in my play list
My favourite country singer
@keezabell8123
I presume you mean Jett Williams, but I'm not quite clear who you mean, since there are three country singers in this biography.
Having gone on a similar journey myself, I felt the highs and low's. My journey took so much longer, still ongoing. But not the fame or money. 😂😂
Thank goodness.
What a great story! It should be made into a motion picture. Only problem would be, finding an actress beautiful enough to play Cathy/Jett Williams
There was no doubt whos daughter she was...no question when she has Hanks face!!
delusion doesn't make it true.
What a deluded comment!@@myopinion6092
@@myopinion6092
Delusion? What do you mean by that?
To know that you were wanted is the best part. So glad justice was done. I love happy endings ❤
Wow. You were loved and wanted. So happy that you are happily married to a man who you love. Thank you for telling your story
Oh Cathy iam so happy your story should be turned into a movie love you 😍 honey
Excellent!
She did so well investigating this on her own. I’ve no idea why she wasn’t allowed to see the documents that would have told her all she needed to know. I don’t think unless you’re adopted how it must feel not knowing anything about who you are.
I agree 👍🏽
From our perspective now in 2024 it's impossible to imagine how they felt back then.
I was born in 1957 so I do remember those closed adoption rules etc, and the pain it caused many people.
Only those who have experienced it can truly understand the depth of the emotional impact, and the struggle to gain a true sense of their own identity. 😢
My first sister in law was adopted, and she always wondered why she looked the way she did.
It was after her beautiful adoptive parents passed away that she finally sought out her birth family, and that was absolutely amazing and beautiful.
She's the spitting image of her birth grandma!😊
@@GypsyGirl317 oh that’s lovely! It’s human nature to want to understand what makes you you. It’s like find the lost piece of a puzzle. I think she was so lucky to having loving parents growing up that really she need to fill this piece of her puzzle regardless of what she found. 👍
I grew up listening to Hank Williams he was my dad's favourite
Jet and her husband Keith have alot more going for them (integrity) than Hank jr..her adoptive parents etc.😊
Cathy's share of the money when her grandmother adopted her her inheritance should of been put into trust
I bet her father is looking down on her and said that's my girl
❤
Yes, there should have been a trust fund set up for Cathy. Glad justice prevailed in the end and there was a reconciliation with Hank's son.
❤👍👏
I am so happy that Jett and her husband kept thier nose to the grindstone and pushed through. I am sure her Daddy is smiling down seeing his son and his daughter together. ❤❤❤❤ Thank you for sharing this story. My husband and I have always been Hank Williams, Hank Jr., and Hank 3rd. fans and we are happy to add another to that list now. 😊❤
What an amazing story .
Hank wanted that baby,she was entitled
Very sad story she lost all the people who loved her as an infant; her dad, her mom and her grandmother. She rightfully inherited because she deserved it and it was decided before she was adopted.
Great ending❤
Congratulations Jett, your family in the Heavens guided everyone on earth to help you to find answers.
How very sad that money and greed denied his true daughter not just the monetary side of this denial, but for her to become part of the family as it should have been.
Yes, very lucky. So glad for you!!!!!
Ingot goosebumps
From the very beginning of this video i knew that she was his daughter. Look at that upper lip. Says it all !!! I'm so pleased for her.
Have gone through this in my family..they have disinherited me and alienated from my mother.😢you feel like you will go nuts..you don't..Hank Junior is greedy and dishonest..I know what Cathy is going through.😮systematically and dishonnestly disinherited.
Cathy has brilliant blue eyes, great story.
Loved this.
She got recognition, love, reconciled with her brother AND met the love of her life.
Who says dreams dont come true?
Did anyone think Jet’s adopted mum unadopted her on purpose knowing that she could then rightfully inherit from Hank’s estate?
Yes
She was disinherited not unadopted, 2 very different things.
Yes
Fantastic story
So much money, plenty to go around for only a few ppl so it’s sad that ppl get so greedy. I’m glad it all worked out❣
❤IT BRAVO 👏
Terrible that the social worker can't be honest with Cathy.😢
Cathy is pretty, Ernest and very comfortable with herself.😊
@katedavey2045
Pretty? No, but she has strikingly beautiful blue eyes.
😢😢😢😢happy for you
Great ending!
A wonderful result 😊
Love ketchup too.❤
A Love Story❤❤❤
Justice!
Clearly, the child was cheated at all levels after the deaths of her father and her grandmother. So very happy they did not give up. The circumstances were not the fault of that baby.
The aunt deliberately hid her existence and so did the adopted parents .
@@BlackStump172 That and more. Amazing life story.
Son of a gun gonna have big fun on the bayou with all that inheritance money, never give up would be the moral of this story, Hank jnr should be ashamed of himself, he could have overuled his lawyers.
@glasshalffull8471
Why on earth would Hank Williams Jr overrule his lawyer? He hired him for the specific reason to ensure that his half-sister got nothing, and to be sure that he was the sole beneficiary of the rights to their father's music.
Note to all - ur will must be verified & copied , original with lawyer/firm/ bank who u nominate as ur executor , but u also have a copy handed to a 2nd executor who u trust , both must be signees on the estate accounts this method of employing 2 accountants to keep an eye on each other goes back to Dickens days. Today you can't trust 1 person , 2 many sharks smell dollar blood ! Seen it 1sr hand ! Elderly parents sign main house ova to son & d. In law with understanding that they will move into a decent outhouse on same property ! Once pprs r signed son under pressure from wife kicks parents out on da streets !
❤
So happy for this woman and her husband. The Legitimate child of Hank Williams who was being double crossed by his greedy wife even though he had accepted Catherine as his lawful daughter and had written a notarised contract to that effect that she and her lawyers hid from everybody because they were greedy and unlawful. Quite the contrary of Hank Williams who was a true responsible man and acted like one.
I noticed she wants to know whos her biological parents but no mention or interest whos her mother the ones who carried her 9 months?
DNA testing has made cases like this much easier. So much work in the past, to find out who you were
i see Gods hand in this. Her grandmother probably prayed for her.
I get the impression she didn't want the money per say just answers,
But she should have inherited before she was adopted .
The Williams sister and x wife hid the papers looks like🤔 lawyer interference he should have been disbarred for that😡
It makes no sense because she wasn't adopted at the time of his death, so clearly within the law to be included in his will as per his pre birth agreement.
Why did the Dupray family do this ? How cruel. They should be ashamed.
x
Terrible that Hank Williams Jr and family only think of guarding the money against the new found relation instead of welcoming her with open arms!!!
Love of TRUTH prevails- Wonderful, but why wasn't DNA consulted ?
Hank had spina bifida
Gosh. A double wammy..
Why was this case so hard DNA would have saved so much money?
She forgave her half brother for not regarding her leaving out of care . Don’t get that one.
selfish adults gross
Couldn't a DNA test have been used to prove Hank was her father ?
Only if there was a sample and that wasn't a thing back then the other way would have been a sample from Hank Williams jnr once the process was perfected
His daughter wondered why her adopted mother dis inherited her? Maybe its because you changed your name🤔🤔she brought you up, and you basically stabbed her in the back
I understand that her adopted mother would be hurt but wouldn’t you always expect that may happen? Usually when an adopted child gets a certain age they are curious and sometimes driven to find out who their biological parents and family are. I’ve seen it in my own family with my nephew. He had a very close relationship with my sister but even that didn’t stop him from searching and trying to make contact with his biological family. More often than not that’s what you see.
@@Grace-tc1lqShe was entitled to her name .
Your shows are getting worse
Why?
