The daughter of tragic tech tycoon Mike Lynch left more than £5million in her estate, documents show.
Hannah Lynch, 18, who was the youngest victim of the Bayesian yacht disaster last August, did not have a will when she died.
However paperwork obtained by The Sun showed she left £5,088,449 in assets and cash.
The funds will likely pass to her mother and Mr Lynch’s widow Angela Bacares under probate rules.
Ms Bacares, 58, survived the August 19 sinking but now faces several lawsuits against her husband’s estate.
High Court documents showed Hannah’s estate will be administered by Monaco-based Richard Gaunt – the co-founder of Mr Lynch’s tech firm Autonomy.
Hannah and dad Mike, 59, suffocated in an air pocket aboard the 184ft super-yacht in Sicily, Italy, when it sank in a freak weather event with 80mph winds.
After her death, friends described Oxford University-bound Hannah as a “warm and beautiful soul”.
Gracie Lea, a classmate, said she was “easy to love” and “sincere, dedicated, fiercely intelligent and genuinely kind… I’ll always remember her smiling”.
Details of Mr Lynch’s will have not yet been released but it is estimated to be worth around £500m.
The death of the so-called “British Bill Gates” came only weeks after he had escaped a possible life sentence in jail in the US.
He and employee Stephen Chamberlain, who was killed aged 52 by a car while jogging in August, had been on trial in California for fraud over the sale of Autonomy to tech giants Hewlett-Packard.
They were both acquitted of criminal wrongdoing over the £7billion pricetag.
In 2022, HP won a six-year UK civil fraud case against Mr Lynch.
In July, Mr Justice Hildyard ordered his estate to pay back nearly £700m – sparking fears his widow will effectively be left bankrupt.
HP had been seeking damages of up to £3.7billion after claiming it was misled by dodgy accountants during the sale process.
Mr Chamberlain, 52, died in an unrelated tragedy after being hit by a car while jogging two days before the Bayesian sank.
