Retired soldier leaves grandchildren £50 each from £500k fortune due to lack of visits

TL;DR Summary
A retired soldier left only £50 each to his late son's five adult children in his £500,000 will, citing their limited contact with him in his last years. The grandchildren sued, claiming undue influence by their uncle and aunt, but a judge ruled that it was rational for the grandfather to cut them out due to their infrequent visits. The judge cleared the uncle and aunt of influencing the will and rejected claims of incapacity or lack of knowledge and approval.
