Heath Ledger's Matilda to get the lot

EVERY penny of Heath Ledger's estimated $20 million will go to his little girl Matilda Rose, Ledger's father says.
In his will, which has been probated behind closed doors at the Supreme Court in Perth, Ledger left everything to his parents and three sisters.
Many observers expected his former partner Michelle Williams to lodge a claim on the will, which was signed by the actor on April 12, 2003, two years before Matilda was born.
The will left half of the estate to Ledger's sisters, Kate and Olivia Ledger and Ashleigh Bell.
The remainder was to go to his parents, Kim Ledger and Sally Bell, after debts had been paid.
But Ledger's father, Kim, says there will be no challenge and the family has given everything to Matilda.
"There is no claim,'' Mr Ledger said. "Our family has gifted everything to Matilda.''
The 28-year-old Ledger doted on Matilda, but was separated from Williams, who joined the Ledger family in Perth for a memorial and wake on Cottesloe Beach in February.
Some estimates have put the value of the Heath Ledger estate at up to $20 million.
But Adelaide accountant Mark Dyson, who is an executor of the estate, said he could not reveal what Matilda would inherit.
The will, filed at the Manhattan equivalent of Australia's Family Court after Ledger died in New York on January 22 from a cocktail of prescription drugs, puts the bulk of his assets into a trust.
Despite the millions of dollars in property in Ledger's trusts, his will lists assets and cash of just $145,000, with no mention of mansions or millions.
Williams' father has previously challenged the grieving Ledger family to publicly state the value of their son's fortune.
Larry Williams, one of the world's best-known stock market traders, said he was perplexed that documents filed in a New York court listed Ledger's assets at just $145,000.
"It's real simple: just come clean with everything,'' he said."
