My response:

You may not like it, but you're "out of line". Your father is spending money on his new wife as I write this; monies that are presumably from the toil and sweat of both your father and mother. So, what does it matter? Additionally, your father has the right to leave his money to whomever, and however, he sees fit.

Look, I didn't much like it that a relative of mine left half of their money to a religious organization in their Will. But, it was none of my business - - despite the fact that I was an heir to the Estate.

If you even speak to your father about this, a claim against you for "undo influence" could be brought against you and the Estate to nullify the Will contents, leaving you with virtually nothing.

So, leave it, and him, alone. It's his money and his right, and none of your business.
