Virgie Goes to Bahamas Seeking Guardianship

Virgie Arthur just won't go away. She'll be in the Bahamas tomorrow, asking a judge to award her guardianship of Dannielynn -- this, according to Court TV Correspondent Jean Casarez.

Stern, Birkhead, Virgie Arthur
Jean tells TMZ that Virgie wants guardianship pending a ruling on who's the daddy.

But there are several obstacles standing in her way. In addition to the fact that Anna detested Virgie, Jean has learned that the Supreme Court of the Bahamas has directed Social Services on the island to do a background check on her. Social Services will also do background checks on Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead. The findings will be revealed in court tomorrow.

And speaking of Social Services, Jean learned that there is no current investigation as to whether Dannielynn is currently in safe care with Howard K. Stern. That's because no formal complaint has ever been lodged.

61. The last place the baby needs to be is with Virgie!!! Just because she is the "grandma" and was in law enforcement does not make her a decent person. Leave Dannielynn be until the paternity issue is resolved. No need to uproot the baby more than once. Howard will not harm the baby as all eyes are on him and he knows it!

62. Virgie won't get guardianship- she's kind of shown herself to be a media whore, too. But Larry-- that's someone I can get behind! I sure hope he gets to bring his baby back to her new home soon. And Howard, I hope he ends up with the shiny new matching bracelets he deserves- for Anna AND Daniel. Because, whether you like it or not, there's a TON of suspicion about his role in both deaths. He may not have forced them to use, but he didn't help them, either. Every addict leans on a close person to help them attain their drug of choice. He should have done as the Reagans said, "Just say 'no'."

64. You guys must have hated Anna and hate Dannielynn to wish Virgie on her. Oh sure, we would get to see more pictures of the baby, because Virgie would have Splash take daily pictures of her to exploit her so Virgie can get cash. And please don't even try to deny this would happen. After all, this is the woman that took Splash to the morgue to see Anna.

65. I'd rather see Dannielynn with Grandma Vergie than HK$ until it is proven that Larry is her true Dad. I can't believe the Bahamian gov't is allowing that child to stay with this drug pushing enabler HK$. Get the freakin DNA test done, Bahamian Court and NOW!

66. Being a police officer doesn't mean she is right and doesn't mean she is honest. And, she may be the biological grandmother, but Anna didn't want her around the baby, you people that thing titles are everything are so wrong................................

67. Just curious.....If Virgie was such a bad mother, why did Anna let Virgie raise Daniel until he was 6 or 7?

68. I think at this time, Larry would be best for the baby. I don't like the idea of Larry letting Virgie having unsupervised visits with Dannielynn. Not till the right people know just why Anna and her Mom had such a poor relationship. If there is in anyway a possibility that Virgie was BAD then this baby needs to be kept from her. Till then don't just hand a baby over to someone just because they have a blood connection. Same goes for dads but how can you stop that unless the dad is really BAD. I use the word BAD and I know that is by each ones interputations. But it is for lack of a better word right now.

69. #11- and just why did she hate her mom so much? Maybe because she made her quit working at the first strip club? Because she might have embarrassed her by going in there and telling the owner that she did not like her daughter working in a place like that? Maybe that was what irritated her in the beginning? I am not sure, but Virgie is the Grandma and she hasn't done anything "underhanded" like Howard and Larry has yet to get his DNA. Believe me, I want Larry to ultimately have this child.......I just think Grandma Virgie has the closest link to Dannielynn, without any question. And she is not a bad person....

70. I can't believe creepy Stern doesn't allow the baby's paternity test, he knows well he is not the father but his love for money is stronger than the love for the baby, Daniel and Ana Nicole, that is why 2 of them are dead now.

STERN AND HIS VOULCHER LAWYERS ARE FITTING FOR THE $$$$, THEY DON'T REALLY CARE A RAT'S ASS ABOUT THE BABY. THEY ARE READY TO USE DANIELYNN AS A TRADE COMMODITY $$$$$$$$$$.

I can't believe how money corrupts the law !!!

71. Fat bitch! I think there's a buffet somewhere with your name on it!

72. I could understand Virgie wanting custody if there was absolutely no one else to take care of this child. Afterall, she is Danielynn's grandmother regardless of her relationship with anna. But there are several men vying to be the FATHER of this baby. This woman needs to learn when to back off and this is one of those times.

73. OK HERE GOES....I am not a big fan of Vergi's, but under the circumstances, I 'm for this. Yes, Larry needs to have his daughter, if she is indeed his. But in the meantime, that baby needs to be with blood relatives that will continue to be in her life no matter who paternity is assigned to. At this particular stage in her development, she needs to be forming attachments that will continue throughout her life....at this point Vergi is the only player who indeed fits that crtiteria. Yes it does seem that she made some critical errors rasing Anna Nicole, however it appears she is alot more stable now than she was then.

What should be of utmost importance to everyone now is the babies safety. And the only living blood relative now is her Grandma. If that were my Grandaughter, I would have done been down there and it would have taken a battalion to keep me away from her
