Re: two wills
No. When your Aunt submits the old will to probate, you will receive notice. You will submit the new will and cross-petition to be the executor. If your will is valid, the Court will deem you executor.
As an aside, the easiest way is to talk to your Aunt and tell her that he made a new will deeming you the executor.
