David Roper-Curzon has been managing a large estate and an impressive 15-bedroom Jacobean mansion for nearly a decade. However, due to a debt exceeding £20 million, a trust has taken over the property, and he has been compelled to vacate. Although he believed he possessed the entire Pylewell Park estate in Hampshire, Roper-Curzon has realized that he only possesses a portion of it, and he must make room for his siblings and trustees, including the Earl of Dundee.
Moreover, Roper-Curzon has been accused of mistreating his former daughter-in-law, and his son Harry Roper-Curzon has attempted to force her to pay for the property and the debt: https://youtu.be/CiQdCnqtOO8. Roper-Curzon, a sculptor who has been married twice, apparently took over his family’s ancestral home erroneously after his father Lord Teynham left in 2010.
According to reports, David Roper-Curzon has been reprimanded by his 90-year-old father for not sharing their family’s estate, Pylewell Park in Hampshire. David had mistakenly believed that he owned the entire property and is now in debt, but he has only been informed that he possesses a tenth of it. His father, Lord Teynham, never officially transferred control of the property to him and desires for it to be divided among all ten of his children to avoid its sale. David’s siblings suspect that he has been exploiting the situation since his separation from his second wife and believe that his new wealthy girlfriend from Norway may be assisting him in paying off his debts.
David has aggravated the situation by discouraging his siblings from using Pylewell on weekends because he rents it out as a wedding venue. Sources claim that David contends that his siblings showed no interest in taking over the property when their parents relocated to a smaller home on the estate. The siblings were preoccupied with their own lives and careers in London, and David remained in the large house due to his sculpture studio. Since his ex-wife Mel departed, his siblings have been enraged by his presence and have been rebelling against him. David, his brother Ben, and sister-in-law Victoria all declined to comment when approached.
Crazy! Only in Toffland…
