Seems to me there is a degree of moral hazard providing responses to this OP, without proper explanation of the entirety of the background, context and circumstances of the various players in this 'domestic' opera.

My concern is the OP maybe cherry picking  aspects of  responses here  which suits their own objectives and desired outcome.

Wow.

I just wanted to know how far an executor needs, legally, to delve into this potential issue.

If they'd paid £10k towards a new kitchen, for example , then it would likely be treated as a gift, in lieu of "rent", unless there was any paperwork to suggest otherwise.

Rather than a claim on a % of the house.
