The Big Reveal

And now the media swarm will focus on the paternity test results that will determine who the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby daughter. Mrs. Lawhawk called in to say that radio reports indicate the father is Larry Birkhead, not Howard K. Stern. As the Dallas Morning News reports:

A DNA specialist who analyzed a sample taken from the child on March 21 was also expected to attend the meeting, said James Neavitt, an attorney for Stern.

Stern will relinquish custody of the girl to him and the two men would “cooperate in transitioning the child,” Neavitt told The Associated Press.

“I think they have some understanding about how they're going to deal with it,” Neavitt said by phone from his office in Los Angeles.

Well, that means Birkhead not only has to care for Nicole's baby, Dannielynn, but will also have to deal with the lawsuits pending against the Marshall estate, which is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. And Perez Hilton is reporting that Anna's estranged mother is going to appeal the custody ruling.

I don't think Anna's mom has much chance of success, but that wont stop her considering all the money at stake.

Meanwhile, Birkhead is already set to reap a windfall with a variety of television and print deals.
