Anna Nicole Smith’s mother has accused Howard K. Stern of selling the TV rights to her funeral for $1 million.
Virgie Arthur claimed in court - during the battle to determine where Anna Nicole will be buried - that the lawyer and lover of her daughter is profiting from her death.
Arthur said: ‘I have not profited from the death of Daniel and Anna Nicole - but he has.
‘I heard that ‘Entertainment Tonight’ is buying her funeral for a million bucks. He’s the one who is getting the money - I’m not. That’s why he wants her body.’ Stern claims Anna Nicole wanted to be buried in the Bahamas next to her son Daniel.
Arthur wants to take her daughter home to be laid to rest in Texas. She is now asking for Daniel’s body to be exhumed so he can also be buried in Texas.
Yesterday (21.02.07) Stern, Arthur and Larry Birkhead - who claims to be the father of the late model’s five-month-old daughter Dannielynn - had a private viewing of Anna Nicole’s body in a Florida morgue.
Her remains have been in cold storage for nearly two weeks at the Broward Medical Examiner’s Office. Anna Nicole died on February 8 at a Florida hotel in unexplained circumstances.
Despite being embalmed, the body is decomposing rapidly and the judge has said he intends to make a decision on who will have custody of her body by Friday (23.02.07).
