First of Many Covers?

Hopefully we won't be getting covers and covers of little Dannielynn Hope Marshall Smith and her real daddy Larry Birkhead - but it's understandable to do a couple. Gotta get money where you can considering dude doesn't work.

Ok! magazine (US version) has an "exclusive interview and photoshoot" and he called them after everything to dispel rumors that he had a relationship with a dude in 2000 and that "I've never seen any documents saying that I fathered a child before Dannielynn."

I am, though, very happy to see Dannielynn out of the arms of Howard K. Stern and now deceased Anna Nicole Smith. She's got a better shot at a normal life. Fingers crossed at least.

That kid is a spitting image of Birkhead. Although all I really see when I look at pictures or video of him is a dayum nose job. Have you seen old photos of him? He looks as different now as Ashlee Simpson does after her nose job.

Dannielynn's Father is...

Larry Birkhead!

FINALLY! All interested parties were in a Bahamian court this afternoon to learn the DNA results which determine the paternity of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern (almost seven months old now).

A custody hearing is set for Friday but earlier this week, sources close to Howard K. Stern, listed as father on Dannielynn's birth certificate, told TMZ:

"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. Howard will act in Dannielynn's best interest, because he loves her and would want a smooth transition to protect her, as she is deeply bonded to those who have been with her since birth.

I still think Anna Nicole Smith would be alive today had she and Howard not been fighting paternity. She'd still be a mess but she wouldn't have expended all the time and energy necessary to battle this out in the courts and in the press.

Now, please get the child in the arms of her true father and in a settled home. He better not start parading her all around 'cause I'll kick his arse.

Anna Nicole Smith Business

Tuesday is believed to be the day the world will learn the identity of Dannielynn's father. More than six-months after her birth to mom Anna Nicole Smith.

Howard K. Stern (babydaddy on Bahamian birth certificate), Larry Birkhead (alleged babydaddy) & Virgie Arthur (reviled mother of ANS), are set to appear in court to hear the paternal DNA results in a Bahamian court sometime Tuesday. Dr. Michael Baird, the DNA expert from Ohio who oversaw the testing, is expected to be the specialist in court authenticating the findings. STAY TUNED!

In other Anna Nicole Smith news:

The Playboy model and perpetually drugged woman chronicled her battle with depression and her struggle with her weight in the early 1990s in two diaries that are now up for auction along with other Smith memorabilia. Here are some outtakes (the spelling/grammatical errors are hers):

"I've been really stressed out lately and depressed and I can't quit eating. I feel like a pig. Howard has been buying me som jewelry but he call me 15 or 20 times a day it drives me crazy. I love him but he aggravates me somtimes."

"Hes so very weak and fragile When I touch him Im afraid he might break," she wrote. "If Jesus desides to take him I dont no what I'll do. I love him so much it hurts me to site and watch him when hes hurting I just want to hold him touch him let him no how much I care."

About her time as a Guess model and the pressure to be thin. "I'm starving!! I've been starving myself," she confessed.

We Could Learn Who DannieLynn's Babydaddy Is This Week

According to the Associated Press, Howard K. Stern dropped his appeal to block the results of the DNA tests which will reveal the true identity of 6-month-old Dannielynn's father. He reportedly did so this morning upon learning the Courts would reject said appeal.

On March 20, the Bahamian Supreme Court ordered DNA testing to determine the paternity of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter, Dannielynn. The necessary DNA swabs were taken the next day.

On top of the Courts denial of his appeal, Stern was sanctioned and ordered to pay $5,000 in attorney's fees to Registrar General and $5,000 to Larry Birkhead's Bahamian attorney. Based on my legal experiences, sanctions (or penalties) aren't usually assessed unless an appeal is deemed to be "without merit" (frivolous).

Tell you what, Stern wouldn't be fighting this so hard if he knew he was the father. Period. Shame on him.

Today's "It's about damn time" News:DNA Taken from Dannielynn & Birkhead

MSNBC's Rita Cosby broke the news today that Larry Birkhead and 5-month old Dannielynn were both at a Bahamas doctor's office at 9 this morning and had samples taken. Howard K. Stern's DNA was not taken because by law there is a presumption that he's the father since he's listed as such on the birth certificate. ** YEAH, LAST TIME FOR THAT!

If Birkhead's DNA matches Dannielynn's - he can then challenge Stern to provide his own DNA to fight for custody.

The samples are being sent to a DNA lab in Ohio and should return to the Bahamas in four days.

BREAKING NEWS:Anna Nicole Smith

Dannielynn's Guardian Gets Custody of Her Mom's Body

"Florida Circuit Court Judge Larry Seidlin ruled Thursday that Richard Milstein, the court-appointed guardian of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn, will get custody of Smith's remains.

Judge Seidlin also said that he'd like Smith to be buried in the Bahamas next to her son, Daniel Smith, who died last year.

"I want her buried with her son," a tearful Seidlin said when announcing his ruling. "I want her buried with her son in the Bahamas. I want them to be together."

The judge directed Milstein to consult with Smith's estranged mother, Virgie Arthur, ex-boyfriend Larry Birkhead, and her companion/lawyer, Howard K. Stern, in the burial plans for Smith. When Seidlin announced the ruling both Stern and Arthur broke down in tears.

"The Broward County medical examiner is ordered to release those remains to Milstein in accordance with Milstein's (direction)," said Seidlin. "Milstein is directed to consult with Arthur, Birkhead and Stern with respect to disposition of Anna Nicole Smith's remains." But he noted that Milstein had final discretion over Smith's final interment."

** I say it's about damn time! This judge was a mess!

P.M. UPDATE: Guardian for Dannielynn says Anna will be layed to rest next to her son Daniel in the Bahamas.
