Strip club king Peter Stringfellow left just £1m in his will despite amassing a £37m fortune
PETER Stringfellow left just £1million in his will — despite amassing an estimated £37million fortune in his lifetime.
Flamboyant Peter, who died last year aged 77, left most of his estate to third wife Bella, 41 years his junior.
Figures from the probate office show the strip club king had a gross estate of £2,943,841.
But after executors paid off his debts just £1,006,209 was left.
He left five ninths of his shares in Stringfellows Restaurants Ltd to Bella, 37, a ballerina turned dancer.
Peter also bequeathed two ninths each to his two grown-up kids. Karen, a boutique owner in her 50s, is his daughter with first wife Norma. Racing driver Scott, 53, is his son by second wife Coral.
Peter also had daughter Rosabella, six, and three-year-old son Angelo with Bella.
It is unclear whether his estate was smaller than thought due to tax or because his fortune had dwindled. But he was known to enjoy life and once said he was addicted to vodka and champagne.

Peter, who confessed he was incapable of being faithful, paid £1.1million to settle his divorce from Coral.
He reckoned 22 years of cheating cost him “£1,237.50 per fornication” then added: “Say £1,300 including candles and drinks.”
Peter lost his lung cancer fight in June 2018.
