John Dilbeck, whom Motes planned to marry in May, is allegedly planning on asserting his right to be a beneficiary of her estate based on their years together and to keep control of her possessions, reported the New York Post.
"Julia and her mother did not approve of John and felt that he was a bad influence on her. But you can't tell someone of Nancy's age whom not to date. She was living in a tiny apartment with John, his brother and a child.
Dilbeck found his fiance's body in the bath on Sunday, the day before Julia was due to be at an Oscar nominees lunch. She is up for Best Supporting Actress for 'August: Osage County'.
