I agree that its tacky, but if he gave her the items as gifts, I'm not sure how that works legally.

I would say they are her so do with as she wishes!

You are right. I forgot about that. Suppose it may also depends on the law in that state.

The copyright argument is an interesting angle, if he's suing because she's profiting by selling something he wrote without his permission. Technically, I think that if she's selling that letter and she doesn't have contractual rights to sell it, then that could well be protected in the courts. It'll be interesting to see how this turns out.

Isn't Montana's wife named Jennifer? I remember then doing a commercial together for some underwear brand and I think they did a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit ish together though i'm not sure about that.

Yes, his current wife's name is Jennifer, but this isn't his first marriage.
