RICHARD SIMMONS THE BATTLE Over His Estate

THE LATE FITNESS STAR'S OLDER BROTHER AND LONGTIME HOUSEKEEPER ARE AT WAR

- Rick Egusquiza

Fitness trailblazer Richard Simmons went to his eternal rest prepared to sweat to the oldies. "Just like Clark Kent, underneath his beautiful things that he was wearing, he is wearing a tank top and shorts," his brother, Leonard Simmons, said at the star's celebration of life memorial in his native New Orleans on Oct. 5.

"We made sure that he was going to be in his normal costume that we all know and love to help the saints and the angels get into shape."

Despite the joy Richard brought into the world, there is a fight brewing over his estate, pitting his brother, Lenny, against Richard's longtime housekeeper, Teresa Reveles. Teresa has filed a petition in court asking to be reinstated as a co-trustee of Richard's estate.

She claims Lenny and his wife, Cathy, pressured her to give up her say over Richard's legacy.
