Jane Buffett, the widow of singer Jimmy Buffett, is seeking to remove the co-trustee of her husband’s estate, saying he has failed to act in her best interests. The singer, who died in 2023, left an estate with $275 million in assets for the benefit of his wife, but Jane Buffett claimed in a court filing Tuesday that she’s been told by her co-trustee that she’s to receive less than $2 million annually, a rate of return of less than 1%. Jimmy and Jane Buffett in 2023.
