In a last-ditch effort to regain a slice of her late husband’s $ 35 million restaurant fortune, the widow of Benihana founder Rocky Aoki is suing two stepchildren — model Devon Aoki and DJ Steven Aoki — accusing them of making an end-run around a “no-contest” clause in his will.
The pair, who control the company, should be cut out because they “aided and abetted” a challenge to the will of their dad Rocky Aoki, claims his widow Keiko, 59.
Keiko said the will includes a clause saying challengers would automatically be disinherited.
In May, Keiko lost the earlier estate case filed by four other kids — with lesser shares — a ruling she’s appealing. Rocky died at age 69 in 2008.
