Joan Rivers was a comedic legend and icon who was a Hollywood staple for more than 50 years. Now we know that all those hard years of work paid off with the massive inheritance she left her daughter.
According to Us Weekly, Melissa Rivers will inherit $75 million in cash as well as her mother's $35 million condo on New York's Upper East Side. Joan's grandson Cooper will also get his own separate inheritance.
But Melissa isn't even thinking about the money.
"It's no consolation for losing her mother so soon," a source told the magzine.
Just last week, the New York Chief Medical Examiner released a statement saying the Fashion Police host's death was due to a lack of oxygen to the brain.
"The manner of death is therapeutic complication," the statement said. "The death resulted from a predictable complication of medical therapy."
"We continue to be saddened by our tragic loss and grateful for the enormous outpouring of love and support from around the world," Melissa said after the statement was released.
It was last month when the iconic comedienne died due to complications from an outpatient procedure to treat her vocal chords. At the time, there was such a huge outpouring of support worldwide that Melissa called it "humbling" and released a touching thank-you to the former talk show host's fans.
"As my son Cooper and I mourn the loss of my mother, we want to thank everyone for the beautiful cards and flowers conveying heartfelt messages and condolences, which continue to arrive from around the world and through social media," she said. "My mother would have been overwhelmed by the scope and depth of the love that people have expressed for her. It is certainly helping to lift our spirits during this time."
She continued, "We are forever grateful for your kindness and support in continuing to honor my mother's legacy, and for remembering the joy and laughter that she brought to so many."
We'll always miss you, Joan!
