The Hear'Say and Emmerdale star made her remarks on TV this week, stating that on his death all of her daddy's possessions had passed to his then wife Irene - when she understood they would be split similarly.
The 43-year-old actress and singer stated that Irene had then remarried, implying she totally missed out on any inheritance. She stated this felt 'like a slap in the face' - and that it had triggered such a deep rift she no longer speaks to that side of the family.
But today Irene Marshall - who is now wed for a fifth time - replied: 'I'm surprised and hurt she would bring this up on TV ... it's just not true.'
Ms Marshall, 68, was married to Ms Shaw's father Vincent Crowshaw for 10 years before his death from a brain tumour in 2012.
Now an expat in Cyprus, she contacted MailOnline to give her side of the story, saying: 'I wish to begin by saying I'm so stunned and upset by these remarks made by my stepdaughter Suzanne.'

'She is also in contact with my child so I do not understand the remark about not touching with us.'
Ms Marshall said her inheritance from Ms Shaw's father had been a kind of balancing the books after she had actually put her own equity into their living plan.
She said: 'I was with Vinny for 15 years and when we purchased a home together I sold mine and included ₤ 50,000. We had a ₤ 100,000 mortgage and when he died we still owed ₤ 62,000.
'We also had charge card to pay and he had scheduled a holiday for all the family to go to Disneyland Paris - but unfortunately died before we were due to go.
'I asked the family if they still desired to go and they did so we went as a big family, which totalled ₤ 12,000.
'We 'd had a will prepared around 2005. It was what is called 'a mirrored so that if I passed away whatever went to him, and if he passed away everything went to me ... and if we both died together it got shared between my two children and his two kids, including Suzanne.
'The company went to Suzanne's sibling, Paul. There was a six-year age difference between us - Vinny was 62 when he passed away and I was 56.
'I don't understand why Suzanne has said what she has said on TV 13 years on. She could have contested the will but didn't and we remained in contact.'
Irene and Vincent resided in Bury in Greater Manchester, however she has actually now transferred to Cyprus after weding her fifth spouse Thomas Marshall five years earlier.
She added: 'Vinny established his organization before satisfying me but after about 3 years together we both became directors and I provided my job up and dealt with him until he died.
'I want individuals to understand I had not just a funeral service to spend for and debts to cover but I didn't work, as Vinny was the cameraman.'

Suzanne made her shock claims throughout an interview on Channel 5's Vanessa on Monday.
She told the host: 'My father died very sadly. A divided household as he had actually remarried. My bro got some inheritance however it was just his business he acquired and then my stepmum got all of it and it was implied to be split equally.
'She's now remarried, everything has actually gone to her side of the family and I got nothing out of any of it. It's like a slap in the face. It resembles you weren't valued.
'I understand what it seems like. It is hard. What it triggers is divide. We no longer speak with those people who were a huge part of our life which's sad.'

'Families you require to have conversations now and make choices based on what is morally ideal and raise your children without any expectation of your wealth. None of us are entitled to another individual's handbag. Have the conversations.'
Suzanne has actually previously spoken of the pain of her dad's death, stating: 'What was hardest was experiencing his fast wear and tear. It was an extremely difficult time for the family.'
In March 2012, Vincent was identified with a grade four glioblastoma tumour following blood tests and an MRI scan. Courses of radiotherapy and chemotherapy failed to diminish the development and the household got the disastrous news that Vincent's condition was terminal and he had between 12 and 18 months to live.
