The late actor Heath Ledger left a will leaving everything he owned to his parents and sister, New York's Daily News reported Saturday.
Ledger died of an accidental drug overdose earlier this year at age 28, leaving behind a daughter, Matilda Rose, with his ex girlfriend, Michelle Williams.
The three-page will was drafted in his native Australia in April 2003. The Daily News reports that this will preceded Ledger's relationship with Williams and the 2005 birth of their daughter, Matilda Rose.
According to documents filed in Manhattan Surrogate's Court, Ledger 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. The bulk of Ledger's estate will be handled in Australia, according to this report.
