L'Wren Scott has left her $9 million fortune to Sir Mick Jagger.
The fashion designer - who committed suicide by hanging last week - bequeathed all of her estate, including her $8 million New York condo, to her grieving lover in her final will, which was obtained by the New York Post newspaper.
In addition to the lavish home, L'Wren has also given Mick, 70, all of her expensive jewellery, clothing and more.
She wrote in her will: "I give all my jewellery, clothing, household furniture and furnishings, personal automobiles and other tangible articles of a personal nature ... to Michael Philip Jagger."
The will was signed by the 49-year-old ex-model on May 23, 2013, in Beverly Hills, California.
L'Wren also insisted that she was "intentionally" ignoring her siblings - including sister Jane Shane, 53, who she hadn't spoken to in six years - in her will.
The news is surprising as she had made her older brother Randall Bambrough, 58, co-head of her fashion company LS Fashion Ltd. just last year.
She wrote in the will: "Except if otherwise provided in this will, I have intentionally omitted to provide herein for any of my heirs living at the date of my death."

'Noah' reflects the "balance of wickedness and goodness" every human has, says the film's producer.
The biblical-based epic, which stars Russell Crowe as the titular character, mirrors the realism of human nature, according to Ari Handel who produced and co-wrote the film with director Darren Aronofsky.
She told the huffingtonpost.com: "The story is a movement from justice to mercy, the balance of wickedness and goodness. Every character in the film has goodness and wickedness in them because every human being has wickedness and goodness in them."
The "heart" of the film battles with why Noah - who saves himself and his family when the world is flooded - is "spared", and asks questions which people have contemplated for years.
She added: "At the heart of it is the big question - why is Noah spared? Why do we have wickedness punished at the beginning of the story and almost the very same words are used to say that wickedness will not be punished in the future? What does that change and how to understand it?
"People have been grappling with these questions for a long time so we wanted to look and find those answers."

Kanye West has an "insane" guestlist for his wedding to Kim Kardashian.
The rapper asked the brunette beauty to be his wife in front of all her loved ones at AT&T Park in San Francisco on her 33rd birthday last October and is now planning the big day, which will take place in Paris this spring.
The 36-year-old star has reportedly given his assistants a 600-strong list, which includes friends like Jay Z, Beyonce and Jamie Foxx, in addition to the likes of Oprah Winfrey, the Obamas, Lupita Nyong'o, Prince, Winnie Mandela, Karl Lagerfeld and European and Middle-Eastern royalty.
An insider told heat magazine: "The wedding is during the last weekend of Cannes Film Festival. But there's no limit to Kanye's ego - he's expecting everyone to skip Cannes. When his assistants try to explain that some people aren't going to show, he won't listen. He's going to be quite shocked when the day comes and half the names aren't there."
Kim has been the voice of reason and wants to more intimate ceremony.
A source added: "Kim has told him to be realistic. She thinks it's odd to have strangers there. She wants it intimate - just family and close friends. She's invited Nicole Richie, Ciara, Blac Chyna, Tyga and Lindsay Lohan."

Kings of Leon have a "brotherly code" for their fights.
The US rockers - comprising brothers Caleb, Jared and Nathan Followill and their cousin Matthew - have come to blows many times in the past but admit they always stick to strict rules so their skirmishes never get too serious.
Caleb said: "A lot of people think we're these big fighters but in the past a lot of the time we were fighting like p***ies. We weren't really duking it out.
"I don't think we've ever had a good enough fight to judge [who is the best]. Any time there's ever been a fight there's a lot of backhand slapping, spitting..."
Nathan added: "A lot of back punching. As brothers there's the rule; nothing above the neck, so we've stuck to a brotherly code of good kidney shots, smacks on the back of the head."
While they tread carefully around one another, the 'Sex on Fire' hitmakers think they could easily win in a fight against other bands.
Matthew told Q magazine: "You could name any band and I'd say we were going to win because we're confident in our fighting."
Caleb also admitted he finds it "hard" to swear in songs, particularly because he knows his parents don't approve.
Asked what their parents think of their lyrics, he said: "It took them a while. My mum loved 'Taper Jean Girl' for years, then one day she walked in and smacked me. 'Are you saying the C word?' 'Yeah, I've been saying it at every show for years.'
"Now I find it kinda hard. I can say stuff that's kind of dirty, but I try to make it more hidden than I did back then. I don't really like to hear someone who is forcing profanity. If it's cool, that's one thing, but if you hear someone saying a curse word out of the blue it's just trying."

Johnny Marr doesn't want to make "clever" music with "depth".
The former Smiths guitarist launched his solo career last year and was adamant he wanted to fill his album 'The Messenger' with songs that made people feel "alive" and were full of energy.
He told NME magazine: "Quite often when musicians have been around for a long time, there's this expectation they should be making quite 'clever' mid-tempo music with loads of 'depth'.
"I'm not interested in depth. I want really loud drums. Flash riffs! Good slogans that make you feel alive. Get that done in three-and-a-half minutes, then do another one. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. That's me.
"Sitting around, strumming acoustics? Nah, it's not my thing. No thanks."
Johnny - who recently broke his hand after falling when out running - has almost finished work on his next album, which he says has a "London feel".
He said: "I think I've got all the songs written now. It's cool. It's got a real London feel, this album. I'm recording it down there at a studio near the river - I want to capture this loud, busy, very modern place."

Carmen Electra is dating clothing mogul Tal Cooperman.
The 41-year-old actress, who enjoyed a brief romance with Simon Cowell last year, admits she is "really happy" with her 30-year-old new boyfriend after being introduced by mutual friends three months ago.
The former 'Baywatch' beauty told E! News: "We are taking it slow and really trying to get to know each other, but so far we are really happy! He's gorgeous and a lot of fun."
A source close to the couple also revealed: "They met about three months ago when a mutual friend introduced them. They hit it off right away.
"The age difference doesn't bother either of them, it doesn't matter. Tal's a mature guy."
A second insider said: "Tal is happy as hell."
Carmen, who was previously married to Dennis Rodman and Dave Navarro, split from her rocker fiancé Rob Patterson in October 2012.
The model recently revealed that she feels "sexier" than ever.
She said: "I feel more comfortable now. Less nervous. I feel like I'm in a really good place in my life and just being in that space makes you feel sexier.
"The secret to being sexy starts on the inside first. I think it's all about embracing yourself. I love being on shoots because you can get into the fantasy of it all. I love getting into new outfits too, stuff I wouldn't normally wear."

Emma Watson needed time to put herself "back together" after filming 'Noah.'
The British actress admits the new biblical epic had a huge impact on the way she views the world and made her want to give back more.
The 23-year-old star told E! News: "You see the movie and you go, 'Wow, we are entrusted with this beautiful world,' and it kind of makes you want to make more of an effort and give back instead of take."
She added: "I was so physically and emotionally exhausted by just the process of making the film.
"I just didn't leave my apartment for a few weeks, walked around in my pyjamas for a few days in a row. I just needed some time to sort of put myself back together a bit."
Emma, who shot to fame as Hermione Granger in the 'Harry Potter' movies, has won praise from fashion critics for making bolder choices on the red carpet recently and really enjoys trying out different looks.
She said: "I've just really embraced that side of my job, I guess, because you have to do these appearances and so you might as well make it fun."

Macaulay Culkin wants to get married before Mila Kunis.
The 'Home Alone' star is reportedly eager to tie the knot with his US soap star girlfriend Jordan Lane Price before his pregnant ex-girlfriend marries Ashton Kutcher to prove he is finally over the 'Black Swan' star.
A source told the National Enquirer: "Macaulay is convinced that Jordan's the one for him. They are crazy about each other."
Jordan has been touring with the former child star's cover band The Pizza Underground in recent months.
The source added: "The band may be a joke, but Macaulay's love for Jordan most definitely is not. They could be formally engaged within weeks, and married by summer. Mila has her eye on a summer wedding as well, so it will be interesting to see who gets to the altar first."
Mila, 29, split from Macaulay, 33, in 2011 after eight years together and the brunette beauty was single until she started dating her former 'That 70's Show' co-star Ashton, 36, in April 2012.
The actress is reportedly thinking about tying the knot with her fiancé in a registry office in Los Angeles as soon as possible so she can focus on her pregnancy, but she previously insisted being married wasn't important to her.
She said: "Not to say that I don't believe in it, but it's just not something that's important to me.
"But I will have children. I'm too selfish to have them now, but when I do, I don't feel like I need to be married."

Chris Martin created a special trust to quietly purchase his new $14 million bachelor pad.
The British rocker, who announced his split from Gwyneth Paltrow on Tuesday (25.03.14) after 10 years of marriage, splashed out on a huge beach house in Malibu, California earlier this month, not far from the actress' home in Brentwood, so they can easily "co-parent" their daughter Apple, nine, and son Moses, seven.
A property insider told the MailOnline: "For this property a new trust was created, called Magical Kingdom Land (trust), which signalled something definitely changed between the pair.
"Everything else they have owned together, including homes in London and New York, was bought under Orchard House LLC. It appears that the trust used was different to the firm that Gwyneth is known to be associated with."
Another source added: "Gwyneth is in love with her fancy place in Brentwood. The beach house purchase was the first clear sign that they were working out the final details of announcing their split."
An insider told RadarOnline.com that Chris still plans to spend most of his time in London as he "doesn't have any family or friends in Los Angeles."
Meanwhile, friends close Chris and Gwyneth told the New York Daily News' Confidenti@l that they weren't surprised by their announcement as "they haven't been a couple for a number of years."
One insider said: "This news should surprise no one. They haven't been a couple for a number of years and have been pretending for the sake of the kids and each other's careers."

Charlie Sheen thinks John Mayer is suing his best friend to seek "revenge."
The singer-songwriter filed a lawsuit against Robert 'Bob' Maron, accusing the jeweller of selling him a counterfeit Rolex watch after he splashed out $5 million on several timepieces, but 'Anger Management' star Charlie believes John is really angry because Bob convinced Rolling Stone magazine to put Charlie on the cover instead of the 'Who You Love' hitmaker in June 2012.
The 48-year-old star told gossip website TMZ.com: "It's really sensitive and I really shouldn't talk about it, but to hell with it. This douchebag tried to bump my Rolling Stone cover and s***w Bob in the process, and went behind both of our backs. This is not about watches, this is about that cover.
"I had the Rolling Stone cover and then something happened and they gave it to him, and he'd already had it.
"I watched my dad shoot his (cover) as a 16 year old with Annie Leibovitz in my driveway and I said, 'that's what I want to do someday,' that's the only press piece I ever wanted in 30 years. So I finally got it and I was so excited, and then I got the call that I got bumped, and Bob went after him (John) and we got it back. John pulled some things behind the scenes that were really uncool; really super 100% un-dude and I've got no time for that. This isn't about watches, this is about vanity and all the other s**t."
