Francesca Hilton

Hilton, whose full name was Constance Francesca Gabor Hilton, was a child of wealth and fame and once dated actor Peter Sellers. During the 1980s, Hilton held several jobs including work as a photographer and actress. Among other roles, Hilton had a small part in the 1971 film “A Safe Place,” which starred Jack Nicholson. As early as 2008, she regularly performed at the Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard. Hilton also spoke about her turbulent relationship with her mother's ninth husband, Frederic von Anhalt. They frequently battled over her mother's finances and care. Von Anhalt sued Hilton in 2005, claiming she had forged her mother's signature to take out a $2-million loan by using Gabor's $14-million home as collateral. In a separate suit, Hilton accused Von Anhalt of manipulating her mother to get into his wife's will. A Los Angeles judge dismissed the lawsuit after Gabor failed to show up for court hearings. In 2012, Hilton filed a petition requesting an independent conservatorship be set up to watch out for the health and financial interests of her mother. A Los Angeles judge granted the conservatorship, but made Von Anhalt the temporary conservator of her mother’s finances, which were to be used only for her care. Hilton alleged Von Anhalt was using her mother’s money on lavish parties. When her father died in 1979, much of his multimillion dollar estate was left to his foundation and Hilton was given $100,000. She contested the will in court, but lost.
