As expected Larry Birkhead has been revealed as the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Dannielynn.  The obviously jublient Birkhead declared, “I hate to be the one to  tell you this, ‘But I told you so’!  The probability of paternity is 99.9999%.   Dr. Baird revealed the results to the court  announcing, “essentially he is the biological father“. 

Howard Stern responded to the results saying, “I am obviously very disappointed … I am not going to fight Larry Birkhead for custody.  I will do everything I can to make sure he gets sole custody.” He did say that he wou  like the transition to be “gradual,” so the baby can adjust and that he will be staying in the Bahamas.   Stern said that Larry is welcome to come to his home in the Bahamas and spend as much time with his baby as he would like and in what TMZ refer to as a ‘remarkable twist’ the two men hugged it out on the courtroom steps.

 However the battle for Dannilynn, Vergie Arthur, Anna Nicole’s estranged mother has announced she will continue her battle for custody of the baby girl.  “All I care about and all I ever cared about was the safety of Dannielynn.”  Her attorned has suggested she will look for dual guardianship with Larry.  Until the custody battle is resolved Dannielynn will be remaining in the Bahamas. 

So there you go, after all that Larry Birkhead is the father, no big surprise to those who’ve been following the whole crazy story but still Anna Nicole’s crazy ass mama wants to get in the way between Larry and little Dannielynn, will this story ever have an end point?  Probably not but paternity battles, batshit crazy relatives, copious amounts of drugs, billions of dollars, suspected murder/suicides - this has been better than any episode of Greys or Desperate Housewifes.  Whatever it is, it doesn’t even feel like a story based anywhere in reality anymore so who knows where it will turn next?

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?

TMZ have exclusively broken the news that by the end of this week we may finally know who indeed is the father of Dannielynn:

The judge in the Dannielynn “who’s your daddy” case has just ordered up the telltale DNA.The judge in the Bahamas just ordered Howard K. Stern to submit his DNA sample for testing along with Dannielynn’s. Larry Birkhead’s DNA will be tested as well. Anna Nicole’s DNA is in the bag too. We’re told the results could come later this week.Birkhead left the courtroom with pumped fists in the air, jumping up and down.

If Larry Birkhead is the father, the judge could make a quick decision on custody. Then a passport would be the only thing standing in Birkhead’s way of taking Dannielynn to the U.S.

An official from the Broward County Office of Vital Statistics told TMZ that that was the title he requested, as opposed to husband, boyfriend of laywer which he could also have chosen.

In other Anna Nicole news, today the Florida Appeals Court upheld Judge Seidlin’s ruling, dismissing Anna Nicole’s mother Virgie Arthur’s appeal. This means that Anna Nicole’s corpse remains in the custody of Dannielynn’s court appointed advocate Richard Milstein and under his wishes she will now be buried in the Bahamas alongside son Daniel.

• Howard’s testimony 

Howard K Stern took to the stand yesterday to describe his relationship with Anna Nicole Smith

He says Anna was obsessed with death:

She talked of death really from the time that I met her. Anna in a lot of ways thought she was going to die young and thought she was going to be like Marilyn Monroe. She [also] thought she was going to die giving birth to Dannielynn.”

Stern claimed their relationship had been on going for the last 2 years but they had kept it a secret.

He added that Daniel’s death destroyed her emotionally:

“She died emotionally when Daniel died,” Stern said. “She had real problems accepting Daniel was gone. She had people open the casket and she was just inconsolable and was hugging him and wanted to go down with him. For the most part, Anna didn’t leave her room [when Daniel died].”

Of Daniel he said the 20 year old was “like a brother to him..Daniel was a great boy and a wonderful wonderful person.”

Oddly he said that J. Howard Marshall was, “truly, truly the love of her life”.Sterns’ lawyers also played a tape to the court in which Anna’s lets rip on the hatred for her mother:
“You want to hear all the things she did to me? You want to hear all the things she let my father do to me, or my brother do to me? Or my sister?” Smith said, glaring at the camera. “All the beatings and the whippin’s and the rape? That’s my mother. That’s my mom!” she snarled.

Tensions in the court room ran high, at one stage, Larry Birkhead’s layers, Debra Opi allegedly muttered, “You killed Anna” at Stern, prompting an outcry from Sterns’ laywer, Krista Barth, The judge eventually told the feuding lawyers to cut it out.

The New York Post reports that at Judge Seidlin also threatened to seize control of the issue of Dannielynn’s paternity:”Don’t I need to know who the father is?” Seidlin asked the lawyers, suggesting he might order a DNA test.

Birkhead has volunteered to take the test but Stern has refused, odd as he claims he is most definitely the father.

• Is Judge Seidlin biased towards Howard Stern?

In another odd twist to this already surreal reality show style court case, Judge Seidlin offered Stern a choice of 2 private jets to take him back to the Bahamas for the night. The eccentric judge said originally Stern would only have to stay one day in court but then told him, “I like having you here” and asked him to stay til Wednesday!!! TMZ refer to him as ‘practically begging’ Stern to show up: “Please don’t embarrass me by not showing up.”

• Was Howard trying to change the will to make it more beneficial to him?

As if all that wasn’t enough, this morning, TMZ reveal another disturbing and even more sinister turn of events . They have obtained a fax sent just 6 days before Anna’s death and they say it “raises questions about Anna Nicole’s intent to change her will”

The fax contains Anna’s existing will, and lists a phone number that appears to be one of Howard Stern’s lawyer Ron A Rale’s number. Under the will, Stern was not protected, he was only trustee of the only beneficiary, Daniel who had already died. As a result Dannielynn was due to inherit all of Anna’s assets outside the will unless Stern was found to be the father.

Anna’s mental health at that time is thought by many to be at least describable as ‘unstable’, so whether she was would be deemed legally capable of making changes to her will is dubious.

TMZ asks the question was Howard about to change Anna’s will and if so does this acknowledge the fact that Daniel predeceasing Anna had ‘derailed his position’??

Every day poses new questions and they all seem to have one common thread, Howard Stern.

MSNBC reports that Anna Nicole Smith had at least 2 breast surgeries since giving birth to her little girl 5 months ago and more popping at least 10 different kinds of pills. The medical examiner is still unable to confirm what the cause of Anna’s death was but MSNBC’s Rita Cosby speculates that Anna who had become, “very tired, very weak” after her last breast surgery may have died from the medications she was taking to ease her pain.

Meanwhile the New York post reports that Howard K Stern and baby Dannielynn have moved into the Bahamas’ mansion Anna had been staying in. However even that is in dispute. Anna had claimed that a US developer and former boyfriend, G. Ben Thompson gave her the house but he is claiming he only lent it to Anna and on Friday changed the locks. But Stern had the locks changed again on Sunday and moved into the property known as Horizons. He also filed a robbery complaint over computer equipment and paintings allegedly taken.

Stern’s spokesman, Ron Rale states:

Right now, Howard is very happy to be reunited with Dannielynn but extremely angry that somebody had the gall to break into Anna’s residence

The battle for Dannielynn’s custody is only just getting under way. The Post claim that their legal experts say the eventual decision could determine the baby’s inherititance.

Gatecrasher also published this not so blind item today about Anna only adding further flame to this already crazy situation:Which dead blond star was sleeping with both her Haitian bodyguard and a very well-known NYC mogul at the same time?

TMZ claim this picture exclusively reveals the contents of Anna’s personal refrigerator she kept in her bathroom in her Bahamas mansion. It contains, Slim-Fast Anna was their competitor Trimspa’s spokeswoman), Miracle 2000 (a nutritional supplement), Worcestshire Sauce, yogurt and spray butter. What is disturbing is the methadone and what appears to be vials of inject able medicines. Anna’s son died as a result of a drug overdose including methadone.

Although police deny reports that Howard Stern was seen flushing methadone down the toilet after Daniel died, a witness is going to testify that happened at Daniel’s inquest next month.
