Hear' Say's Suzanne Shaw's Stepmum Gives hER Side of Story in Will Row Suzanne Shaw's stepmother has hit back at the singer's claims she unjustly acquired all her late father's cash. The Hear'Say and Emmerdale star made her remarks on TV this week, stating that on his death all of her father's possessions had actually passed to his then wife Irene - when she comprehended they would be divided similarly. The 43-year-old starlet and vocalist said that Irene had then remarried, indicating she totally lost out on any inheritance. She stated this felt 'like a slap in the face' - and that it had caused such a deep rift she no longer speaks to that side of the family. But today Irene Marshall - who is now married for a fifth time - replied: 'I'm surprised and hurt she would bring this up on TV ... it's simply not real.' Ms Marshall, 68, was married to Ms Shaw's father Vincent Crowshaw for 10 years before his death from a brain tumour in 2012. Now an expat in Cyprus, she got in touch with MailOnline to give her side of the story, saying: 'I wish to begin by saying I'm so stunned and upset by these comments made by my stepdaughter Suzanne.' She denied suggestions that she is entirely estranged from Suzanne, stating: 'We have actually touched throughout the years.
