Her only child, Nicholas Dunbar, has been appointed to administer her estate worth £43,000 gross and £35,000 after expenses.

Documents show her registered address was a residential home in London for members of the theatrical profession.

Faithfull was known for hits like As Tears Go By, which reached the UK top 10 in 1964.

She also had starring roles in films including 1968’s The Girl On A Motorcycle.

Faithfull was famously the girlfriend of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger in the 1960s.

She inspired songs such as Wild Horses and You Can’t Always Get What You Want.

When she died the Rolling Stones legend led tributes to her saying: “I am so saddened to hear of the death of Marianne Faithfull.

“She was so much part of my life for so long. She was a wonderful friend, a beautiful singer and a great actress.

“She will always be remembered.”

Bandmate Keith Richards added he was “so sad” following Faithfull’s death saying that he “will miss her”.

After a period of heroin addiction in the 70s she resurrected her career with the classic album Broken English.

In recent years, she teamed up with songwriters like PJ Harvey and Nick Cave, who each cited her as an inspiration.

In 2009 she received the World Lifetime Achievement Award at the Women’s World Awards.

She was made a commandeur of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the government of France.
