Rebutable presumption that interested witness is evil, however witness being a beneficiary does NOT impact the validity of the will. It only impacts the validity of the gift to that beneficiary.

If interested beneficiary can rebut the presumption then you can take the full gift under the will; if not you get nothing and the gift fails; rebut presumption by showing that under intestacy you would take more or show that there were other witnesses
