Verne Troyer: Austin Powers star estate 'valued at only $140,000 at the time of his death'

The Austin Powers star owned $21,000-worth of autographed memorabilia

Verne Troyer's estate was reportedly valued at just under $140,000 (£109,647) at the time of his death, according to court documents.

The Austin Powers star, who died in April 2018 at the age of 49, had just a few possessions in his name, The Blast reported, citing court documents.

These included a collection of autographed memorabilia worth $21,000 (£16,447), according to the website.

Troyer also had two bank accounts with $9,384.29 (£7,349.73) and $68,898.87 (£53,961.25) on them respectively, amounting to a total of $78,283.16 (£61,310.98).

The actor possessed a 2015 Audi S4 with 3,490 miles on it, valued at $38,000 (£29,762).

His personal effects, including furniture, came to $2,000 (£1,566).

This means the total value of Troyer's estate has been estimated to reach $139,283.16 (£109,087.27).

Troyer, who had openly struggled with alcoholism, died after being hospitalised in Los Angeles. His death was later ruled a suicide by alcohol intoxication.

The Independent has contacted his estate for comment.
