Howard K. Stern Says He's Anna Nicole's Baby Daddy

Attorney Howard K. Stern said on "Larry King Live" that he's the father of Anna Nicole's newborn baby.

The revelation sets up a potentially nasty paternity battle. Stern appeared Tuesday night on "Larry King Live" disclosing his belief that he is the father. The statement is in sharp contrast to comments by Larry Birkhead who has told TMZ in the past that he is the father. Birkhead has asked for a paternity test and it is unclear whether Anna Nicole will oblige.

Stern said on King's show that he has been in love with Anna Nicole for along time and hopes the feeling is mutual.

167. I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT ANNA NICOLE SMITH. BUT WHAT SHE HAS DONE IN HER LIFE IS BETWEEN HER AND HER MAKER. BUT I DO KNOW HOW SHE FEELS ABOUT LOSING HER SON BECAUSE I HAVE LOST 2 DAUGHTERS WITHIN A 5 YEAR PERIOD,MY ONLY DAUGHTERS,ONE HAD LEUKEIMA AND WAS 54 AND THE OTHER HAD LUNG CANCER AND WAS 53.. IT IS REALLY A VERY TERRIBLE LOST,I THINK ITS THE WORSE LOST OF ALL. I WISH HER HAPPINESS WITH THE MAN SHE MARRIED,AND ALL PEOPLE MAKES MISTAKES SO I WOULD BE VERY CAREFUL OF WHAT I SAID ABOUT HER OR ANY ONE ELSE.JUST PRAY FOR HER. DON'T THROW THE FIRST STONE.

168. Anna loves Howard because he is her best friend but she is not in love with him. That is why she didn't legally marry him. She always made out with other people in front of him. He has followed her around like a puppy for years and made his living off of her. This Birkhead guy is probably after her money, too. There is some reason she ran away from him. Either that or Howard convinced her Birkhead was after her money. I am sure Howard doesn't want anyone coming in between him and Anna. It is sad because the one person who truly cared only about Anna and not her money is dead.

171. BIG "up's" to Anna Nicole. I do it with my lawyer every now and again. Lover...Lawyer....who cares...its your own business. Let everyone else get a life and stay outta people who choose to live life their own way whether it is morally wrong or right.

172. I'm sorry about the loss of her son -- BUT she just continues to live her life as a pathetic FREAK . Hopefully, she had her tubes tied this time. I feel sorry for this innocent baby girl.

173. Hey, if she's got nothing to hide, she should go prove it by having the DNA test done. It would be one less thing to stress about and improve her credibility and HKS's by about 150%. One thing that will be interesting is to go to a full-fledged court battle, and have HKS, a lawyer, commit perjury on the stand. God took Daniel from Anna because he was a good kid, had an absolutely unstable environment, and Daniel probably privately prayed to escape the circus he lived in. Two antidepressants (which is not all that uncommon as most are used to treat a dominant specific symptom of clinical depression), and methadone - this is a kid crying out for help. My heart goes out to him. And I pray to God that as goofy as Larry Birkhead is, he can get that baby out of the same nightmare Daniel had to live through. If I was a judge, I would demand ANS back to CA for a paternity test, then remand her to rehab, and also rehab for HKS. ANS isn't coming back to the states because she knows Larry is the father and that she stands a VERY good chance of losing custody of that baby. There is alot Larry can use to show that he is far more stable than she is, because of all the adjectives used to describe ANS, stability isn't one of them.

174. Anna needs to just do the d.n.a test and get this over with. Marrying Howard nerd Stern is not going to make the other man go away...................................

178. i AM DEEPLY SADENED BY THE DEATH OF ANNA'S SON .

WITH ALL RESPECT i HAVE TO SAY THAT I SAW A PICTURE OF THE BABY GIRL
ON TV AND SHE DID HAVE THAT BLOND FUZZ ALL OVER HER AND HER HAIR WAS ALSO BLOND.
I THINK THAT ANNA REALIZED WHAT A DOPE THAT LARRY GUY WAS AND SHE REALIZED THAT SHE HAD A REALLY GREAT FREIND IN HOWARD K. THAT SHE ASKED HIM TO BE THE BABY'S DADDY ,CAUSE SHE KNEW THAT HOWARD WILL ALWAYS BE WITH HER NO MATTER WHAT.

NOW LETS LEAVE THIS POOR WOMAN ALONE SHE HAS A LOT OF "SOW WHAT YOU REAP' ! TO TAKE CARE OF!!
STUFF HAPPENS- HER SON MADE A MISTAKE AND PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE.
IT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE A LOT OF MONEY AND YOU ACT A LITTLE SILLY WHILE ON TV AND IN THE PUBLIC EYE.
SHE WILL ALWAYS BLAME HERSELF FOR HER SONS PASSING THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT HE DID WHAT SHE DID.

NOW LETS LEAVE THEM BE AND ALLOW THEM TO MOURN IN PEACE AND QUIET!

179. She calls herself a Mother? No, Mother would ever let their son stay in a funeral home for over a month while she is out partying and having a grand old time. I think her new little girl should be taken away from her and any future child...........And, this is for the remark from Marie I realize she lost a son I lost a daughter and she was layed to rest four days later.........................
