Friends and family of Hollywood stars Carrie Fisher and her mother, Debbie Reynolds, have attended a private memorial service, at their joint residence in Beverly Hills.

Meryl Streep, Ellen Barkin and Ed Begley, Jr. were among stars who attended, while Fisher's daughter Billie Lourd, and her father, Bryan Lourd, who was Fisher's partner in the early '90s, were also present.

Best known for her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars films, Carrie Fisher (60) died on December 27, four days after suffering a heart attack on a flight from Britain, where she had been shooting the third season of a British television comedy.

A day later, Reynolds, who sang and danced her way into the hearts of moviegoers in Hollywood musicals such as Singin' in the Rain, suffered a stroke and died at the age of 84.

The two were buried side by side at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in the Hollywood Hills on Friday.
