DANNIELYNN NAMED ANNA NICOLE’S ONLY HEIR
ANNA NICOLE SMITH’s baby daughter DANNIELYNN has been named the late star’s sole heir.
A Los Angeles judge made the ruling after Smith’s boyfriend and executor Howard K. Stern appealed for clarification of the former Playboy model’s will, which was drafted in 2001 five years before Dannielynn was born.
Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff declared that the 18-month-old is the only heir, and established a trust on her behalf, which will be governed by Stern and her biological father Larry Birkhead.
The ruling means Dannielynn stands to inherit the estate of Smith’s former husband, billionaire J. Howard Marshall. Marshall left Smith much of his fortune, but his family is currently contesting the will.
Smith died of an accidental drug overdose in February 2007.
