Fisher’s kid will get all ‘she wants’

HOLLYWOOD GIANTS OFTEN CLASHED

CARRIE FISHER’S daughter already had her mom’s incredible strength — and will now also inherit the actress’ earthly possession­s, her uncle told the Daily News on Wednesday.

“We want her to have whatever she wants. Carrie wanted that,” said Todd Fisher, 58.

In an interview before Carrie Fisher’s mom, Debbie Reynolds, died, the late icon’s brother said he was with the famous matriarch, 84, discussing funeral plans and Carrie Fisher’s only child, Billie Lourd.

“As far as mom and I are concerned, she gets whatever she wants,” he said of Lourd. “There is a trust set up. But we’re all pretty well off. This was her mother.”

Fisher purchased a 4,200-square-foot Beverly Hills home in 1992 — the same year Lourd was born — for $13.75 million. It is estimated to now be worth $25 million.

Todd Fisher described Lourd, 24, as “very successful” in her own right — starring in the Fox-TV series “Scream Queens” alongside Emma Roberts and Taylor Lautner.

“We’re very proud of her. She’s handling this with amazing strength,” he said of his grieving niece.

“Obviously, we are all heartbroke­n,” he continued. “Everybody is doing their best to pull together, but it’s just a shock.”

Todd said arrangemen­ts for Carrie, who died Tuesday at age 60, were pending Wednesday, but that the family was leaning toward two services.

“Nobody knew this was coming. My mother has explicit plans about what she wants to do (for herself), but at Carrie’s age, she didn’t make plans,” Todd said before Reynolds died. “We’ll have a small family thing and then likely there will be a wider body of people involved in a second service.”
