“Katy Perry Faces Backlash: Veteran’s Family Calls Her Actions ‘Unforgivable’—What Really Happened?”
- Katy Perry is under fire for suing an 85-year-old veteran, who suffers from Huntington’s Disease, over a $15 million mansion.
- Westcott’s family labels Perry as ‘unforgivable’ and ‘entitled’ over the legal battle.
- Perry launched a counterclaim seeking $6 million in rent and damages from Westcott.
- Westcott’s health has deteriorated during this nearly four-year legal battle.
Only a short time passed before he tried to rescind his offer by sending an email to Berkshire Hathaway, saying he was still under the influence of his painkillers.

“The combination of his age, frailty from his back condition and recent surgery, and the opiates he was taking several times a day rendered Mr. Westcott of unsound mind,” argued his complaint.
But this didn’t stop Perry and her partner, Orlando Bloom, from taking legal action.
According to the Daily Mail, the two won a nearly four-year legal battle to keep the 9,000 square feet home in December 2023, which made Perry the legal owner of the property. She received her keys in 2024.
The singer then launched a counterclaim against Westcott, seeking a whopping $6 million in back rent and other alleged damages.
Unsurprisingly, Westcott’s family was enraged.

“It’s entitled celebrity behavior,” said 39-year-old Chart Westcott, the veteran’s son, to The Sun. “She has no sense of fair play, no empathy, zero empathy, quite the opposite,” adding that there was no real explanation for her actions “other than greed.”
