I know nothing of this case, but the headline and first paragraph make it seem like this was done recently before her demise.

Yes, people tend to sign wills leaving their stuff to their spouse in the event they die. They usually sign them before they die.

It would be fairly unusual for a married person not to leave all their stuff to their spouse.
