Lee Wei Ling, the daughter of Singapore’s first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, has died at the age of 69.

Lee died at home on Wednesday, according to a Facebook post by her brother Lee Hsien Yang. She was also the sister of former Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.

Her death brings to focus a long-running family feud over a house left by late premier Lee Kuan Yew. The saga spilled into the public and political realm as the siblings argued over how 38 Oxley Road, at the fringe of the Orchard Road shopping district, should be handled after their father died in 2015.
