Edinburgh Trainspotting actor Bradley Welsh left huge fortune when he was killed

T2 Trainspotting actor Bradley Welsh left a £450,000 fortune when he was assassinated outside his Edinburgh flat, it has emerged.

Welsh, 48, was fatally shot in the head by contract killer Sean Orman. Orman had been paid £10,000 by gangsters to carry out the shooting with a shotgun believed to have been made in the 1890s.

The actor, who starred in Danny Boyle's 2017 Trainspotting sequel and also ran a boxing gym, was killed while his partner Emma Grant and young daughter were inside the flat. Legal documents have now revealed he had a total estate in Scotland worth £448,293.
