After his wrestling career flourished, Andre’s fame skyrocketed; unfortunately his time away on business often caused tension with his daughter; eventually only being able to see her five times before passing away in 1993.
After Andre the Giant passed, Robin inherited his estate, including his home in Ellerbe, North Carolina.

Andre Rene Roussimoff, better known by his nickname Andre the Giant, was one of the most revered and legendary wrestlers ever. His enormous size was caused by an acromegaly condition, but upon his death in 1993 he left his vast estate to his daughter, Andreanne Roussimoff.
Robin never formed a close bond with Andre, only meeting him occasionally and never becoming close enough for her to know him well. Robin wishes his life could have been extended so they could spend more time together.
