EMMERDALE legend Meg Johnson left £375,000 in her will, probate documents show.
The beloved star – real name Margaret Foster – played Pearl Ladderbanks in Emmerdale from 2003 to 2022 before she died last July aged 86.
Most of her assets were passed to her two children, Nicholas and Stephanie, as her ITV News presenter husband Charles Foster had died only four months before her.
She handed a large diamond ring to Stephanie and another five-stone diamond ring to daughter-in-law Saheli.
The soap icon also asked that her body be cremated after she died in a Rochdale dementia care home.

Her final will was signed in 2012, more than 11 years before her death.
Meg was a crucial part of major Emmerdale storylines including being trapped in a fire during the Sugden house explosion, developing a gambling addiction and faking Alzheimer’s disease.
The Manchester-born actress, who fell into a stage and screen career after being evacuated during the Second World War, battled dementia for several years before she died.
ITV said after her death: “Meg was a kind and wonderful lady, full of warmth and always with a twinkle in her eye.”
