Kit Gordon insists the family are totally committed to Hibs for the long haul despite the investment from Bill Foley.
Ms Gordon said they have no plans to further reduce their shareholding, which now stands at just over 60%, at Tuesday's AGM.
The family have been involved with rhe Easter Road club since Ron, who died last year, purchased the club from Tom Farmer back in 2019.
His widow Kit added that retaining overall control of the club was a key part in negotiations.
“I think this is why this deal is the right one for us in so many ways," she said. "We haven’t lost control. From the beginning when Ron passed away people came knocking. This was something that Ron would have gone after.
“We have followed his lead along the way. Even though he is not here he believed in and we know what he wanted for Hibs and this is going to be a very strong partnership.
“We still have control and that is the most important thing. As you know for Ron, control was very important and we haven’t lost that. We still have control.”
