Enquirer heir banned from contacting mother amid family feud

Paul Pope, son of National Enquirer founder Generoso Pope, has been banned from contacting his wealthy, 79-year-old Palm Beach socialite mother, Lois Pope, after he was arrested for stalking her. Paul spent several days behind bars earlier this month for allegedly stalking Lois while demanding millions from her. He had filed a lawsuit against her, alleging fraud and excessive spending. She sought a restraining order, claiming his “cruel behavior” was causing her to “suffer substantial emotional distress and to genuinely fear for her safety.” On June 17, the Palm Beach County Court issued an injunction banning Paul from going within 500 feet of his mother. He didn’t respond to our calls and e-mails.
