His will showed he left £30,000 to each of his two brothers Jamie and Joshua.
And £20,000 to Emma Devries described as the guardian of his son.
He left the rest of the estate in trust to his son DeNiro who was born in 2015.
The will stipulated his ten-year-old son would inherit the cash when he reaches 21.
It’s believed he co-parented him alongside a former partner, as reported by Need To Know.
He shared his love for his son on social media writing moving captions alongside father-son snaps, including one which said: “My life, my world, my everything.”
Another said: Happy birthday to my most precious, beautiful, amazing child in the whole wide world! I love you so so much and want to be with you every day and pls G-d one day we will.
“For now I will wish you the most amazing birthday wishes and hope all your dreams come true. I love you baby. Always and forever Daddy.”
Danan, of Chigwell, Essex, was best known for portraying Sol Patrick in the Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks, between 1997 and 2001.
In 2005, he appeared as a contestant on the first series of ITV’s Celebrity Love Island and returned for the second series in 2006.
He was also a housemate on the twentieth series of Celebrity Big Brother in 2017.
He said he experimented with ecstasy from the age of 14 and survived a heroin overdose in 2007.
He also said that he had been to rehab 17 times by 2022 and that he had spent “about £1 million on rehab and recovery” by then.
In January Avon and Somerset Police attended an address in Brislington, Bristol, where Danan was pronounced dead.
Following an inquest it was announced he had died from a cocktail of drugs with heroin, methadone, pregabalin, cocaine and zopiclone found in his system, with a secondary finding of benzodiazepine.
