Anna Nicole Smith's five-month-old daughter Dannielynn Hope is now in
the care of her companion Howard K. Stern's mother and sister in the
Bahamas, reports People Magazine. Stern, who is listed on
Dannielynn's birth certificate as her father, is in Florida.
Anna Nicole Smith's Baby: Battle for Custody, Who is the Daddy?
According to Star Magazine Larry Birkhead, the ex-beau of Anna Nicole
who also claims to be Dannielynn's father, has posted a heartfelt good
by to Anna Nicole on his website larrybirkhead.net :
"Chance brought us together, our love couldn't keep us apart. We
loved, we laughed, we shared a connection that couldn't be broken,
regardless of the challenges. I loved her in life and I will love her
long after. Our daughter, Dannielynn is a constant reminder of the
love we shared and the life that we desired.

Prince Frederick von Anhalt, the husband of actress Zsa Zsa Gabor also
says he's the daddy. He told The Associated Press he had a
decade-long affair with Anna. "If you go back from September, she
wasn't with one of those guys, she was with me," he said, adding that
he would file a lawsuit if 5-month-old Dannielynn is turned over to
Stern or Birkhead.
Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern was born on Sept. 7, just three days
before Smith's 20-year-old son, Daniel, died of an apparent drug
overdose in Smith's room at Doctors Hospital in Nassau, on the island
of New Providence, reports People.

Three weeks later, Stern, who was there when Dannielynn was born and
when Daniel died, went on Larry King Live to say he was the baby's
"proud father." Stern told King, "Based on the timing of it, there
shouldn't be a doubt (about paternity)."
Still, there has been no DNA test to prove exactly who the father is
of what may be a half-billion dollar baby.

Birkhead filed a lawsuit accusing Smith of providing fraudulent
information when she applied for her daughter's birth certificate. "I
am the father of Dannielynn and I think this is ... a crime," Birkhead
said. "I expect to be reunited with my daughter."
Just a day before Smith died, a Los Angeles judge ordered Smith and
Danielynn to submit to a paternity test. But on Friday, a Los Angeles
judge refused to order an emergency test on the body of the late
Smith, which had been requested on behalf of Birkhead.
A full hearing in the matter has been scheduled for Feb. 20.
