Isn’t “the lady doth protest too much” a pretty standard saying, without any automatically homophobic connotations even if said regarding a man?

It’s completely unfair how trans people are so disrespected in life and death. How much does it cost to use someone’s proper name and pronouns?

I smell a troll. Or, maybe just an idiot.

I know. The person said, in regards to her not getting the money at 18, “why make it hard on her”, as though the girl will be living in a cold water, rat infested flat living off of ramen noodles!

Lol and the son is 44! He’s married with kids! I think that commenter is just being a nitwit.

As others have said, the son is 29 years older than she is, so it makes perfect sense.

The person trying to paint David Bowie as some sort of mysoginist is reaching.

She can do whatever she wants. She could sit on her hands and not do anything until 25. She didn’t earn that money and he didn’t have to give her any of it. Her mother is still alive and she will likely be well taken care of and she could live a very nice life without that additional money. If she wants the money she…

This is pretty standard. I received a much-smaller inheritance from one of my grandfathers that I was not in sole control of until I was 28.

Yeah, but the son’s also twenty-nine years older than she is.

After Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson, that affluenza kid, Bieber, etc, I’m kind of applauding this decision.

Except this is not her money but her father’s so he's entitled to set up any rule as to how he wants it to be given to anyone.

Nope.

I’m sure Iman isn’t going to let their kid do anything foolish. She’s a super smart lady.

Turning an “adult” at age 18, and being responsible with tens of millions of dollars, can be two very different things.

I’m 40, and I’m not sure I’d be responsible with 12 million dollars.

Because 20 some million dollars is a large sum of money.

This is pretty standard. It’s to ensure the kid doesn’t just just laze around for the rest of their life. Waiting till 25 makes it more likely they’ll finish college and maybe get a job or find something to do with their life other than live off their father’s money.

Because 15-year-olds shouldn’t have 12 million dollars.

Probably to give her time to prepare to be responsible with it.

Buy some land in a remote part of Alaska where there are no other people. It’s the only way.
