What happens if someone hides a will and its found after grant of administration is granted?

If a hidden will is discovered after the grant of administration has been issued, it may invalidate the previous grant if the new will is deemed valid and revokes all prior wills. The executor named in the new will may then need to apply for a new grant of probate, allowing the estate to be administered according to the wishes expressed in the newly found document. This can lead to legal disputes among beneficiaries, especially if they were relying on the previous grant. Ultimately, the probate court will determine how to proceed based on the validity of the hidden will.
