New details following David Bowie's death have been revealed.
The
late rock icon's will, which was filed in court on Friday in Manhattan,
allegedly revealed that Bowie has left nearly half of his $100 million
estate to his wife Iman, along with the couple's home on Lafayette Street in Manhattan, according to the New York Post's Page Six, who obtained the documents.
Their daughter, Alexandria,
gets his Ulster County home in upstate New York, and will split the
remaining of Bowie's fortune with his son from a previous relationship, Duncan Jones. According to the report, Bowie also gave $2 million to his friend and personal assistant, Corinne Coco Schwab, and $1 million to his son's former nanny, Marion Skene.
Additionally, the will allegedly states that the late
musician's dying wish was to have his ashes scattered on the island
nation of Bali in accordance with Buddhist rituals. Bowie passed
away earlier this month, just two days after his 69th birthday. The
legendary singer's Facebook page posted the tragic news writing, " David
Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous
18 month battle with cancer."
The statement continued, "While
many of you will share in this loss, we ask that you respect the
family's privacy during their time of grief."
Posting a sweet
black and white throwback photo of himself with his father on Twitter
following the tragic announcement, Bowie's son wrote, "Very sorry and sad to say it's true. I'll be offline for a while. Love to all."
