“The root of the difference between them was in their upbringings, with the father being raised in rural British India and the mother in Kenya. But Jasminder completing his education in the UK and taking little interest in the religious side of Sikhism,” he added.  

In a witness statement, Jasminder had said that he never had a particularly religious upbringing and he had no formal agreement with his parents to share the property nor was there an implied agreement.

According to the ‘Campden Family Business' journal, the family's first business was a small post office followed by a bed and breakfast in Kensington.

Over the years, the Singhs steadily brought up high-profile hotels including the Savoy Court and the May Fair in central London.
