Actress
Nancy Dow, mom of Jen and former wife of “Days of Our Lives” actor
John Aniston, died last year — but not before cutting her famous daughter and Jen’s half-brother, John Melick III, totally out of her will! Before Nancy’s 15-year union with the soap star ended in 1980, she was married to musician
Jack Melick for five years, before divorcing in 1961. Jennifer and her sibling went to war over Nancy’s estate when it was discovered she had disinherited both of them in favor of her granddaughter,
Eilish Melick.
