However, in her last will and testament she also remembered several close friends, setting aside chunks of cash for each, it has been reported.
The 45-year-old put aside almost $300,000 to help friends and her sister through any tough times.
Richardson left $200,000 for her designer half-sister Katharine Grimond Hess, $50,000 to favoured employee Josephine Burke, and $10,000 to little-known Queens based costume designer, Kevin Mark Harris, who has worked on Sex and the City.
The London-born actress also bequeathed $20,000 of her fortune to her Aunt Lynn Redgrave.
