Hank Williams Jr.'s son, Sam Williams, publicly asked for help getting out of a conservatorship he was put under by his famous father and his half-sister, Holly Williams. He posted a now-deleted video to YouTube last week where he didn't say a word but instead held up several handwritten signs detailing the situation.
Sam explained that the conversatorship was enacted in August of 2020, 55 days after his sister Katie was killed in a car accident.
At the end, he looks nervously around the room before holding up the last sign that reads, “I want out.”
TMZ reports that the caption on the clip read, “I've been quiet a long time now. I want out of this, and I don't mind people knowing. They took my grief process, my spirit, my money, my car, my home, and everything possible in order to 'protect me.' Well, I need protection from them . . . I have worked my broken heart to quits since my dear Katie left for Home. I do not deserve this. This is a scary step but I don't see what else to do here. I am ashamed of my family and embarrassed. I am beyond done. I have my spirit back. Get. Me. Out. Please.”
Sam released his debut album, called Glasshouse Children, in August of last year. The project features duets with Dolly Parton and Keith Urban.
