Looks like Howard Stern is rowing back even before the DNA results in the Danniylnn paternity battle are released on Tuesday in a Bahamian court.  TMZ report that ‘unimpeachable’ sources have issue a statement, a pretty long statment, so I’ll only quote the relevant bits but if you are an avid follower of the Anna Nicole Smith story just click on source and it will take you to the full article:

If Larry Birkhead is confirmed to be Dannielynn’s biological father, Howard will not challenge custody. His love for her will not change, irrespective of the results. While Howard continues to believe and hope that he is Dannielynn’s biological father, he wants to be involved in her life, regardless of paternity.  Howard will do whatever is necessary to assist Larry Birkhead to defeat any effort by Virgie Arthur to obtain custody of Dannielynn. Speculation that this is somehow about money for Howard is misguided and wrong. Howard has never made a TV or book deal even though he is the one who knew Anna Nicole best. As TMZ reported earlier, the money from Anna Nicole’s funeral went to a trust set up for Dannielynn. Howard set up the trust but he does not, and will not, receive any money from it and is not the trustee.”

So after all the wrangling that has gone on over the months it seems that Howard is now basically admitting that he is not the father and the most probable likelihood is that Larry Birkhead is.  All I can say is what a waster of time, why didn’t he just submit to DNA testing from the word go if he wasn’t in it for some form of financial benefit?
