THE ex-wife of Blur drummer Dave Rowntree, who ended her life in the Dignitas clinic, left almost £1millon in her will.

Cancer-stricken Paola Marra left most of her £941,000 estate to her two brothers and two sisters.

She also bequeathed £50,000 to her 60-year-old ex, to whom she had remained close after their divorce in 2000.

Former music industry worker Paola left £4,000 each to four charities, as well as £10,000 to a pal for looking after her pets.

Paola had called for assisted dying laws.

In a video released after her death last year at 53, she said: “Assisted dying is not about giving up.

“It’s about giving people the right to end their suffering on their own terms, with compassion and respect.”;

She asked for her ashes to be scattered on Hampstead Heath, close to her North London home.

Canada-born Paola, who had breast and bowel cancer, died in the Swiss clinic last March.
