Coming directly on the heels of the announcement that Heath Ledger's daughter Matilda Ledger would be inheriting his entire estate, comes word that the insurance company isn't paying up.
ReliaStar, the company that wrote Heath's $10 million life insurance policy six months before his death, has reportedly deemed his death "suspicious." In the case of "suspicious" death (re: suicide), the policy is rendered null and void. Insurance companies are cagey-ass.
They launched an investigation into the death, despite the New York City Medical Examiner's office ruling it as "accidental."
Matilda's trustee, who would have held the money for the two-year-old, is said to be filing a lawsuit. All they need to do is wheel her into the courtroom in her stroller and have her say "I miss my Daddy." Problem solved. Michelle Williams, get on that.

Hmmmm says:
Leave it to an insurance company to take money in, but do not anty up. Weaseals every last one of them.
I hope everything works out for Matilda and they have to pay up in full to her.
