Will Virgie Get in Larry's Way? Today's Custody Fight Looms

Birkhead and Arthur tussle.We know that Larry Birkhead is Dannielynn's biological dad, but does that mean he'll get to take her home to L.A.? A hearing is scheduled for 2:30 PM EDT in the Bahamas, to determine who will get custody of the little girl -- we're an hour away from the start of the hearing.

Howard K. Stern has already told Birkhead he won't fight for custody now that Birkhead's been named as the father, but one wild card remains in the large form of Virgie Arthur.

Anna Nicole's mom has stated that she wants to be more than just the child's grandma.

TMZ will have all the custody-day action as it happens!

181. Diane...if you are a mother, did you NEED anything in writing for your mother, or your child's paternal grandparents to allow them to have a role in your child's life...or as their parent did you determine, when, if, in what circumstances, etc, your children visited their grandparents? I have no such agreement with my in-laws or my parents. I sadly don't see a lot of them because of distance, and finances, but phone calls, pictures, and them visiting me have always been an option if they wished to have a relationship with my sons. But anything in writing? Nope. Never. I am the parent, the guardian, and I control when, where, and whom my children visit...its all at my discretion.

183. Good Morning, Larry and Family!

We affirm you will be out of there (sooner rather than later) and back in California under the protective auspices of our court system where nobody (other than yourself) has a right to touch your precious child. Until we know a big bird has landed at an airport back here, we'll keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

You're going to be a devoted and magnificent father, Larry Birkhead! We're all proud of the courage you have demonstrated while "walking through the wilderness alone" as you have been a stellar figure for every biological father who might be confronted with a similar situation in our contemporary society.

Howard K. Stern did the correct and selfless thing in the end to help make Dannielynn's future life more gentle and out of the media glare!

185. VIRGIE NEED TO GO BACK TO TEXAS AND LEAVE LARRY AND THE BABY ALONE. SHE DIDN'T BOTHER TRYING TO SEE HER OWN DAUGHTER AND GRANDSON WHEN THEY WERE ALIVE AND THE ONLY REASON SHE WANTS TO SEE DANNIELYNN IS BECAUSE IT KEEPS HER ALIVE IN THE MEDIA. VIRGIE GO AWAY.

186. Thanks to the extreme efforts of Larry's lawyer OPRI who polished him up - Larry KICKED his own hero aside - do you think he does the right thing?

Remember Anna was drupped up when he had sex with her and Anna RAN away from the USA to AVOID Larry ?

190. At least Larry is honest... when everyone else was afraid to admit they had ALL profited from Anna in one way or another, he didn't lie on the stand- when asked if he would profit off Anna, he said "yes, I'll do whatever I have to do to get my daughter- I'd sell this shirt if I needed to"

I have to admire that.

191. Mr. O'Quinn et al will have to get a pay day out of it....how will they get paid if VA does not get custody? Mr. O only litigates big estate cases and it was clear from the beginning this had something to do with the Marshall estate which was dead in the water, the Marshall heirs claiming ANS received all she was going to from the estate, but was put back on track all the way to the US SUPREME COURT by this site's fans much reviled HKS. So in essence VA or LB or DL would have no Marshall fortune to look forward to without the work of HKS now would they???? But the reality is something has to get paid....in fact many someones will have to get paid and so VA will have to fight for custody now won't she??? To show good faith that the parties are not after the money? Allow an independent disinterested party to administer it as a proviso of custody plain and simple...

192. What time is the hearing today? Earlier TMZ posted an 11:30 eastern start time saying "we're an hour away" but now the posting says 2:30... anyone know of a link to a live feed at the court house?

193. 174. I HOPE FORD SHELLY NEVER ANNA'S HOUSE -G BEN THOMPSON GAVE ANNA THE HOUSE SO HE COULD F HER-IT BELONGS TO DANNILYNN NOW. WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE STEAL FROM THE DEAD! FORD SHELLY AND THOMPSON! THEY ARE PROBABLY THE ONES WHO PAID THE NANNIES TO SAY THAT ANNA UNDERFED THE BABIES. SINCE THEIR LAWYER PINDER WANTS VIRGIE TO MOVE INTO THE HOUSE-I KNOW THEY HAVE SOME SATINIC PARTNERSHIP! NO WONDER ANNA DID NOT HAVE THE WILL TO LIVE-WITH ALL THIS EVIL AROUND HER.

194. ANYONE WHO DEFENDS HOWARD STERN IN THIS DESERVES TO HAVE A MAN LIKE HIM IIN THEIR LIVES. ME I'D RATHER HAVE A LARRY.

____________________________________________

I defend Stern and I have no problem saying it. I don't think there's anything wrong with him or Larry. They both obviously cared for Anna and both of them had a very dysfunctional relationship with her.

They seem the same when it comes to Anna. No distinction at all except the media had to have a bad guy in this story and it was stern. Lots and Lots of ratings they got for it too.
