Carrie Fisher's only child, daughter and actress Billie Lourd, is the beneficiary of her mother's multi-million dollar estate.

Fisher passed away at the age of 60 in December 2016. Her mother Debbie Reynolds passed away one day later at the age 84 following a stroke.

E! News reports that 24-year-old Billie will inherit her mother's 2016 Tesla S, along with jewelry, artwork and the savings in four of the actress' bank accounts. She will also inherit ownership of her companies and a life insurance policy, as well as the rights to Carrie's public image and likeness.

Approximately 1,500 items, however, are to be auctioned for Fisher's charity, The Thalians, and The Jed Foundation, a charity chosen by Lourd. Founded in 1955 by a group of Hollywood actors, The Thalians assist children with mental health problems and are named after the Goddess of Comedy, Thalia.

The non-profit Jed Foundation was founded in 2000 and works to promote emotional health and prevent suicide among college and university students.

Items set to be put on auction include Carrie's life-size Princess Leia statue inside a British vintage British phone booth, her personalized director's chair from the Star Wars: Return of the Jedi set and a life-size bronze, limited edition Yoda statue.

"My mother and sister were magnificent collectors, they amassed an amazing and diverse collection in their lifetimes," says Carrie's brother Todd Fisher. "The size and scope of their collection rivals most museums. So in keeping with my mother's wishes we have decided to share part of their magnificent collection with all their friends and fans."

The two neighbouring Hollywood Hills homes belonging to Carrie and Debbie owned are to be sold as one property for an estimated $18 million, according to reports.
