Actor Heath Ledger, who died in January of an accidental prescription drug overdose , wrote a will leaving everything he owned to his parents and sister, New York’s Daily News reported Saturday.
The will preceded Ledger’s relationship with Brokeback costar Michelle Williams and the 2005 birth of their daughter, Matilda A series of documents filed in Manhattan Surrogate’s Court revealed that the actor had less than $145,000 in New York assets at the time, including a $25,000 Toyota Prius and $20,000 in furniture and fixtures. His greater wealth, including trust funds, Australian properties and the Brooklyn townhouse he once shared with Williams, is uncertain.
It’s unclear whether there will be any provisions for Williams or Matilda Rose, now 2. The bulk of Ledger’s estate will be handled in Australia, according to the report.
The actor’s lawyer has asked a judge to seal the documents for privacy. Ledger’s spokeswoman, Mara Buxbaum, declined to comment.
