Tiger Lily will turn 21 on July 22, and it has been reported by The Sun that she will be bequeathed her father, Michael Hutchence’s fortune.
The soon-to-be birthday girl, who was born Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence Geldof, will receive a significant chunk of royalties from her father’s cataloge.
Heavenly Hiraani Tigerlily Hutchence was born to Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence on July 22, 1996.
At the time, Michael described his baby daughter as “just what we ordered”.
Paula chose the name ‘Tigerlily’, her daughter Pixie (from her marriage to Bob Geldof) picked the name ‘Heavenly’ and Michael chose ‘Hiraani’.
Sadly, Tiger lost her mum when she was just four-years-old.
There had been rumours that the INXS frontman was broke at the time of his passing in November 1998, but Michael set a trust fund for his daughter, which is believed to now be in the millions.
While Tiger has lived a relatively private life, she recently tapped into her father’s creative side, posing for photographer Kate Bellm.

Paula Yates’ youngest child first dipped her toes into the world of modeling last November, where she promoted sustainable fashion brand House of Khadi, in Southern India.
Tiger Lily’s life was rocked with tragedy from an early age.
She was just 16 months old when her Michael passed away from a suspected suicide in November 1997.
Less than three years later, at the age of four, Tiger Lily was orphaned when her mum tragically found dead at her London home from an accidental heroin overdose at just 41.
Soon after her mother’s death, Tigerlily was adopted by Sir Bob Geldof.

Paula and Michael’s daughter was adopted by Sir Bob Geldof, father to her half-sisters Fifi, Peaches and Pixie.
In 2014, tragedy struck yet again when Tiger’s beloved half-sister Peaches died from an heroin overdose in eerily similar circumstances Paula’s passing.
However the death has only brought the troubled family closer together with Tiger playing a key role as doting aunt to Peaches’ two young sons, Astala and Phaedra.
When she’s not with her family, Tiger is in New York, where she pursuing her dreams of acting and modelling.
