Dannielynn BirkheadAnna Nicole Smith / DaughterDannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead (born Hannah Rose Marshall Stern; September 7, 2006) is an American reality television personality and child model. She is the only daughter of Anna Nicole Smith and Larry Birkhead and was the focus of the Dannielynn Birkhead paternity case.
Uncle Howard? Nearly ten years after Anna Nicole Smith's death, Access Hollywood Live reported that Howard K. Stern had made sure to stay in Dannielynn's life. Even though he is no longer playing the father role, Stern is known to Dannielynn as a good friend of her mother's.
After Anna Nicole Smith's death, Howard K. Stern became the executor of her estate, which included her California home worth nearly $2 million. Though he told Fox News in 2011, that Larry Birkhead would "probably become [the estate's] sole administrator," as of 2013, Stern was still seemingly very much in charge.
Bobby Trendy, who appeared on The Anna Nicole Show as Smith's interior decorator, was clear about his feelings toward Stern, and later went on to call the lawyer "a coattail-riding ambulance chaser" in an interview with The Village Voice. Yikes.
Though Howard K. Stern was listed as the father on Dannielynn's birth certificate, that never stopped Larry Birkhead from firmly believing he was the girl's father. According to CNN, Birkhead and Stern "began battling in Bahamian courts" over the matter shortly after Stern fought another ugly legal showdown over where Anna Nicole Smith's body was to be laid at rest. A court-ordered DNA test later proved that Birkhead is Dannielynn's biological father. Regardless of what Smith's intentions were when he chose to tell the world he was the father, this was likely another devastating blow for him after losing his longtime friend and lover.
Stern was also part of the continued legal battle for the money allegedly promised to Anna Nicole Smith when her ex-husband, J. Howard Marshall II , died. Throughout this 20-year legal battle, Smith was continually denied the money that she felt was rightfully hers, but Stern was still fighting on her behalf in 2015, according to Forbes .
