Veteran “60 Minutes” journalist Bob Simon left his $2 million fortune to his wife of 49 years, according to the correspondent’s will filed in Manhattan Surrogate’s Court on Wednesday.

Simon, who died in a car crash earlier this month at 73, met his spouse, Francoise Anne-Marie Simon, while studying in France after college.

If Francoise dies, the money will go to Simon’s only child, daughter Tanya Simon, who is a producer for CBS’ “60 Minutes.”

Simon owned a $1 million home in East Hampton and $1 million in cash and stocks and bonds, according to court papers.

The filing also reveals that Simon’s funeral at the Frank E. Campbell Chapel on the Upper East Side cost $38,000, which will be billed to the estate.

Francoise is asking a Surrogate’s Court judge to formally appoint her executor of the estate so she can oversee her late husband’s assets, which are parked in “a volatile [stock] market.”

“Assets must be marshaled and safeguarded,” the petition says.

Simon’s limo driver was ferrying the heralded newsman to a seminar Feb. 11 when he crashed the car on the West Side Highway.

The driver, Abdul Reshad Fedahi, 44, had his license suspended nine times.
