David Bowie leaves half of his fortune to wife Iman,children,personal assistant & his son's former nanny.

The late David Bowie revealed the true extent of his generosity as he left millions to members of staff in his will.
The 69-year-old singer - who died earlier this month after a secret cancer battle reportedly left $2 million to his personal assistant and close friend Corinne "Coco" Schwab.

A further $1 million went to his son Duncan’s former nanny Marion Skene.The rest of his money was divided, as expected between his family members.

David left an estate of around $100 million to Iman and his two children, with his Manhattan home going to his wife while their daughter Lexi was left his property in upstate New York.

In his will healso left instructions for his ashes to be scattered in Bali in accordance to the Buddhist ritual, according to his will which was filed in Manhattan on Friday.

The iconic singer was secretly cremated without any of his family or friends present.
He told his loved ones he wanted to "go without any fuss" and not have a funeral service or public memorial.

It comes as Ivo Van Hove, who worked with David on stage show Lazarus, recently said the star fought to live because he wanted more time with his wife Iman, their daughter Lexi, 15, and his son Duncan.
Director Ivo said: "I deeply felt that he really didn't want to die.

It was a fight not against death but a fight to live.

"And living, for him, was being a real family man. He loved to go home, to be at home with his daughter, with his wife, his family."
