Will Rothschild Obituary, Death; – A reclusive member of the affluent Rothschild family tragically lost his life on Wednesday due to a fire that ravaged his residence in Hollywood Hills.

“The guy was attached to his dog,” Dana Gladstone told the Times. “I knew him as Will.” Despite his reclusive nature, Rothschild did display some of his wealth, as noted by KABC. Neighbors reported that he owned multiple properties and a collection of high-end vintage automobiles.
