Gregory Hines was a famous dancer and actor, but his funeral had a big surprise—allegedly his own brother, Maurice Hines, didn’t show up. Why didn’t Maurice attend? Was there a family problem?

Some people say it was because of old arguments. Others think it was about the rumors that Gregory was gay. Were these just rumors, or was there truth to them? What really happened between the two brothers? Let’s find out.
