Status Quo rocker left £230,000

-

STATUS Quo guitarist Rick Parfitt died with an estate in the UK worth just a few hundred thousand pounds.

The 68-year-old rocker’s estate is valued at a little over half a million pounds, but after debts and costs amounts to £230,753, according to his will.

The veteran musician died on Christmas Eve after suffering a severe infection while in a Spanish hospital, which he had visited due to complicati­ons with a shoulder injury.

The will, signed just four days before his death last year, shows that his estate is divided between his third wife Lyndsay and his children.

Parfitt had a series of health scares in his later years, undergoing a quadruple heart bypass in 1997 after doctors said he could die at any time following a hard-living lifestyle involving drink and drugs.
