Tom and Vicky were married in 2000. Tom made a will in 2013 in which he bequeathed 50% of his estate to his wife Vicky and 50% to his children Xeno, Yvette and Zandi in equal shares. Tom and Vicky were divorced five years later in March 2018 and Tom married Bongi three months later.
Tom and Bongi were married in community of property, because Tom was factually insolvent. At this stage, Toms estate was worth R50000 and Bongis estate was worth R2000000. Tom died ten months after his marriage to Bongi when a run-away truck hit his vehicle on the N1 highway. Bongi and Toms joint estate was now worth R2200000.

Select one:

Bongi will inherit R1100000, Vicky will inherit R550000 and Xeno, Yvette and Zandi will each inherit R183333.
b.
Bongi will inherit R550000 and Xeno, Yvette and Zandi will each inherit R183333.
c.
Bongi will inherit R1100000.
d.
Vicky will inherit R550000 and Xeno, Yvette and Zandi will each inherit R183333.
