Was Stern ever reported to be in Florida with her? I haven’t heard one word about him. Personally I think he truly loved her. The way he followed her around like a puppy dog on the reality show and all.

It’s a classic case of Clusterfuck Gone Terribly Wrong. The whole thing made me very sad.

(Oh my god…I never thought of the “Daniel As Father” possibility…that can’t possibly be, _can it_?)

Two of my staffers are discussing this possibility as we speak – both claiming their spouse was the one to suggest it.

Ew.

A paternity test involving the two guys she was involved with would only show if one or the other was the father, right? Unless the son was specifically tested for this, and no one requested this I don’t think, why would it include him?

Just to clear up all the Ew-factor stuff at once, ANS’s father is long dead, correct? And she doesnt have any brothers, or male cousins, or any other sons, correct? So we can focus on Daniel for the time being?

It wouldn’t. But they could exhume him if anyone wanted to pursue the possibility. Which I don’t think they would.

They wouldn’t need to. Half his DNA would be his mother’s so that the connection between mother and sperm donor (if there was one - and yes, ew) would be evident.

I don’t think that’s how it works. They’d be looking for Daniel’s FATHER’S DNA, which would point to either his father or Daniel himself as being the father of the little girl.

Didn’t the old billionaire dude have more than one son? I know one died last year.

She was a train wreck. Some are trying to compare her death to Marilyn Monroe, which I find appalling. ANS was trailer park trash and a phony celebrity.

The only one I feel sorry for is her baby. Two men are going to be fighting over her, not out of love, but for a chance the baby will get some of that disupted inheritance.

There was actually a Ripped From the Headlines episode on \*L&O SVU \* about a very similar plot…young widow of a billionaire, son comes to visit her in the hospital, chows down on her hospital food, dies, food is revealed to be poisoned and she was the intended victim. The woman’s last name was “Jones.”

Just got this in my email from CNN -

“A Los Angeles judge orders the body of Anna Nicole Smith to be preserved pending a February 20 hearing on the paternity dispute surrounding her five-month-old daughter, lawyer says.”

I really did read _Playboy_ for the articles. And the jokes and cartoons. I prefer smaller breasts than what they generally show. So I missed the whole ANS rage. I just didn’t care. But I did catch one or two minutes of her reality show. She seemed to be a porky bimbo who liked to eat chocolate.
