Farrah Fawcett has left part of her fortune to several women's charities, it has been reported.

The late Charlie's Angels starlet, who starred in the TV movie The Burning Bed as a battered woman, has set aside money for her favourite charities that help victims of domestic abuse, reports Contactmusic.

The 62-year-old actress passed away on Thursday after a three-year battle with cancer.

Reports claim that Fawcett's estate will donate thousands of dollars to American women shelters.
