Richard Harrison of 'Pawn Stars' fame, who died on June 25, won't be dividing his fortunes amongst all of his sons, according to his will.

In his will, 'Old Man' Harrison placed his son Rick, who happened to have appeared in the 'Pawn Stars' show, in charge of his estate.

However, there is no mention of his other son Christopher, according to Page Six.

In Harrison's original will, the inheritors included his wife, Joanne Harrison, and three children, Rick, Christopher and Joseph, as beneficiaries.

He, however, went on to amend it in 2017 in order to keep Christopher out of it.

"I would like to express my love and affection for Christopher Keith Harrison," Page six quoted the will, as reading.

"However, for purposes of this Will, I have intentionally and with full knowledge failed to provide for him and his issue," the will added.

Fondly known as the 'Old Man', Harrison opened the pawn store along with his son Rick in 1989. The shop rose to fame with the "Pawn Stars" TV show which premiered in 2009 and has been on the air for 15 seasons.
