Dame Elizabeth Taylor fortune to boost Aids trust
DAME Elizabeth Taylor’s £758million fortune will be divided between her family and favourite charities, one of her closest financial advisers revealed yesterday.
The Hollywood legend’s will, due to be read this week, makes provision for sons Michael and Christopher Wilding and daughters Maria Burton and Liza Todd, 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
The rest, aside from bequests to friends, will go to the Elizabeth Taylor Aids Foundation and charities. Her wealth includes £71million a year royalties from 69 films.
One of her advisers said: “Elizabeth had a very shrewd head on her when it came to money.”
