Former football star Vinnie Jones’ late wife left £150k when she died but did not make a will

THE wife of former football star Vinnie Jones left £150,000 when she died — but had not made a will.

Tanya Jones lost a long battle with cancer aged 53 at their Los Angeles home in July 2019.

Because she died without a will, her estate went straight to Vinnie. He was granted probate last month, papers show.

The former Wimbledon hardman, 56, who also starred in gangster film Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, has written about his anguish at losing Tanya.

They met at a social club when he was 13 and she was 12 and were married for 25 years.

After her death, he said: “I don’t believe you ever move on but I think my life will improve. The tiredness will ease.”
