Hello, new person here.

I just had to join up and make a thread about this because I don't think I have seen anyone say who it will go to. I don't know why they are acting in corrie like they don't know who the estate will go to, my thinking is that it would all go to Shelly's baby in trust, wouldn't I be right in thinking this.

Id wondered about that too they all seem to have forgotten about the baby. Id assume he/she would get everything.

Probably not. Charlie never legally acknowledged paternity and they have not proven the baby is Charlies! I can't see him going and putting his name on the birth certificate or Shelly asking him. The will would not say to be inherited by the child as Charlie behaves like he is childless so Shelly would have to take the baby and a member of charlies family ( preferably parent/sibling) for a DNA test then stake a claim to the estate by contesting whatever will is in place already! Really If it was as easy as saying this is the deceased's child with no proof dishonest people would be making out like bandits just by reading obituarys!!!

Didn't someone say somewhere that it would be Holly? When her mum turns up having seen the press. Mind you, I'm not sure that's going to happen now, any press would surely have been read by now and acted upon.

As far as I know Shelly has not had the baby yet. But I don't know how it works if the father dies before the birth as to whether you could add them to a birth certificate. I know if your unmarried the father has to go with her when the babys registered or sign a form though. I would assume if she wanted Charlie's name on the certificate she would have to get a DNA test and probably apply to the courts to get it done. I doubt they kept anything from the autopsy to do this with, so you would be right in saying about finding another family member. Charlie i thought admitted it to Tracey and seemed to be put out about Shelly not wanting her baby to have anything to do with him. I think if Charlie would have lived on he may have talked Shelly into letting him put his name on the certificate ..the smooth talker that he was... but thats just my own wonderings of thought.

Didn't Charlie say to Jason that he had a son/and or a daughter, but he'd lost contact, not long after he arrived?

I thought he said that about his brother. But of course the way Charlie put it about I wouldn't be surprised if a whole street worth of desparate housewives turned up claiming they had Chariles baby. lol

Yes Charlie did say that. In fact much as the whole Charlie thing was good and Bill Ward excellent. It would have been good to put some meet onto Charlie's character.

They clearly originally had this whole idea of his family/son/ex wife coming into the show but decided against it.

As regard the baby and/or Holly then they would have to prove paternity

He's definitely got a son, Jake, who would be 19 this year. Apparently Charlie mentioned having a daughter in his early days in Corrie, so he's got two kids already even before Shelley's arrives.

Plus, of course, he could be Holly's Dad as well. I don't think that particular angle is anything to do with Charlie, as such, though (his estate, i mean) more to do with Jason learning Charlie (possibly) said HE was Jason as he was impregnating Emma!
