Soul singer Smokey Robinson is embroiled in a bitter family feud with his niece in the wake of his sister's death, amid accusations he abandoned the women financially as she battled cancer. Robinson's sister Rose Ella Jones lost her battle against stomach cancer on April 26. The former nurse played a big part in Robinson's early career, helping him write hits including "Quiet Storm" and "Virgin Man".
According to her daughter, Stacye Jones, Robinson, who was supporting the pair by providing $1,225 in monthly rent, stopped writing cheques after he was asked to pay for his sister's at-home nurse. Jones tells the National Enquirer, "I asked Smokey if he would pay for home nursing. He told me coldly, 'Your mother never did anything for me. Let the state look after her.'
