Anna Nicole mystery solved
Wednesday,

2007
Larry
Birkhead
was
revealed
as
the
father
of
Anna
Nicole
Smith's
baby
last
night.
DNA
tests
confirmed
the
photographer
is
the
biological
father
of
seven-month-old
Dannielynn.
Anna
Nicole
had
named
her
lover
and
lawyer
Howard
K.
Stern
as
the
father
on
the
tot's
birth
certificate.
Birkhead
said:
"I
hate
to
be
the
one
to
say
this
but
I
told
you
so.
My
baby's
coming
home
soon.
I'm
happy
to
have
this
behind
me
and
to
be
able
to
start
a
life
with
my
daughter."
Stern had claimed he was the father because the conception date correlated with his relationship with Anna Nicole. However, Birkhead - who had a two-year relationship with the late Playboy model - always insisted the baby was his. The paternity tests have now confirmed with 99.9999 per cent certainty that Birkhead is Dannielynn's biological father. Significantly, the result will give Birkhead control of the £240 million fortune Dannielynn could inherit from her mother's marriage to the late oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall.
Stern will hand Dannielynn over to Birkhead in the next few weeks. Both have agreed to block any attempt by Anna's mother Virgie Arthur to seek joint custody.
