“Beach Boy” Brian Wilson is suffering from a type of dementia. That is why he is now to be placed under new guardianship after the death of his long-time wife in January. A statement said that this role would be taken on by two long-standing family representatives in the future.
“This decision was made so that there would be no extreme changes in the budget,” said the statement. This means that Brian and the children living at home will be able to stay at home. “Brian will be able to enjoy the company of all his family and friends.” He will continue to work on current projects and be able to participate in any activities of his choice.
According to People magazine, a court report stated that Wilson suffered from a “neurocognitive disorder such as dementia.”
Brian Wilson’s wife died at the end of January
At the end of January, Wilson’s wife Melinda Ledbetter died at the age of 77. The couple adopted five children together, and Wilson also had two children from a previous marriage.
Wilson achieved worldwide fame with the band The Beach Boys and hits like “Surfin’ USA”.
According to many critics, in 1966 he created “Pet Sounds” as the “best pop album of the 20th century”. Even Paul McCartney once said that the album made him the Beatles masterpiece “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band».
