Matilda Gets Heath's $16 Million
For some reason I have a difficult time believing this.
Heath Ledger's 2-year-old daughter Matilda Rose will inherit the late actor's entire $16.6 million estate, according to Perth, Australia's Sunday Times.
The Dark Knight star -- who died last January of a prescription drug overdose at the age of 28 -- had named his parents and sisters as the beneficiaries in his will.
But the will was made before the birth of his daughter. Some reports speculated that Ledger's ex Michelle Williams would lodge a claim.
But Ledger's father Kim tells Perth's Sunday Times, "There is no claim. Our family has gifted everything to Matilda."
In March, Kim issued a statement: "Matilda is an absolute priority and Michelle is an integral part of our family. They will be taken care of and that's how Heath would want it to be."
If Matilda truly is getting all of Heath's money, did his fam have to tell the media about it? Does "gifted" mean "is getting $16 million"? We'll see. As long as Heath's family is taken care of, I guess that's all that matters, not sure Matilda needs all his fortune, though. Lucky kid. :)
