Singer left an estate of about $14,000,000, and two wills disposing this between his family members, leaving some out for various reasons. Suits followed, with Mary Anne claiming to be the legitimate "Mrs. Singer". In the end Isabella was declared the legal widow. Isabella subsequently married a [[Belgium|Belgian]] musician, Victor Reubsaet, who inherited the title Vicomte d'Estemburgh, and the Vatican title of Duke of Camposelice.
[[Winnaretta Singer]] married [[Prince Louis de Scey-Montbéliard]], and after [[annulment]] of this marriage, married to [[Prince Edmond de Polignac]]. As a [[lesbian]] she became involved with [[Violet Trefusis]]. Another of Isaacs daughters, Isabelle married Elie, duc Decazes. Their brother, Paris Singer, had a child by [[Isadora Duncan]]. Another brother, Washington Singer, became a substantial donor to the [[University College]] of the South West of England, which later became the [[University of Exeter]]; one of the University's buildings is named in his honour.
