US astronaut Buzz Aldrin is suing
two of his children and his former business manager alleging they stole
money from him and are slandering his legacy.
The lawsuit, which
was revealed on Monday, was filed in a Florida court one week after his
children petitioned to take control of his finances.His family members had told a judge that he requires a legal guardian because he is in "cognitive decline".
The 88-year-old was the second man to ever walk on the surface of the Moon.
In a Wall Street Journal interview last week, the former US Air Force colonel said: "Nobody is going to come close to thinking I should be under a guardianship."
In his lawsuit, he claims that his son, daughter and former manager Christina Korp also undermined his "personal romantic relationships" by forbidding him from getting married.
At issue is the management of his private company, Buzz Aldrin Enterprises, and his non-profit organization, the ShareSpace Foundation.
