Birkhead: I'm Calling My Travel Agent!

Posted Apr 20th 2007 9:19AM by TMZ Staff

Click to return to TMZ.comLarry Birkhead just emerged from a custody hearing in the Bahamas with a big smile on his face and said, "I gotta call my travel agent," suggesting that he was getting very close to taking daughter Dannielynn home.

Minutes later, Howard K. Stern emerged from the courtroom and slammed Virgie Arthur for holding up the custody process, saying that she "proved herself to be what Anna Nicole always told me."

The three parties were in the same room this morning -- perhaps for the very last time -- to determine custody. Virgie Arthur is seeking guaranteed visitation of Dannielynn and wants to be her guardian in the event of Larry's death. While he didn't go into specifics, Birkhead was visibly pleased with what transpired in the courtroom, but left some room open, saying he didn't know whether he'd need "one seat or two."

Virgie slipped away without a word.

63. #4 I so agree with u. I did try to give Vergie some credit. But not anymore. She is too pushy and how can a mother try and stop her own daughters funeral? Larry take Dannielynn and hide from grandma Vergie.

66. I HOPE AND PRAY THAT DANNIELYNN IS GOING HOME TO BE WITH HER FATHER. VIRGIE ARTHUR IS A BIG FAT AROGANT ASS THAT NEEDS TO GO THE HELL BACK. SHE WANTED CUSTODY FOR A LL THE WRONG REASONS, LIKE MONEY? SHE IS EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE AND I FEEL SHE IS MENTALLY INCOMPENTANT TO RAISE A CHILD.

67. It seems the custody hasn't been decided yet because at the end he says that he isnt sure if he will have 1 seat or 2 on the plane. Am I the only one that caught that?

69. Virgie is really a golddigger. She have no right to control over Larry. Go away, Virgie.

Howard is supporting Larry to get a sole custody. They are moving on their lives and get along for what the best for Danniellynn.

70. Howard is such a hypocrite. He slams Vergie for holding up the custody hearing by a week, yet it was ok for him to delay EVERYTHING in regards to paternity that took 7 months.

71. Florida

72. If he is around a certain somebody.

Posted at 11:19AM on Apr 20th 2007 by True,big possibility Larry could die off, Vergie

73. Think about it. Those of you who are saying Virgie should have grandparents rights and custody if Larry should die know nothing of the law. Regardless of the situation, should a parent die, he/she has the right to assign the custody and care of the surviving child to anyone they choose. Only if the new guardian is proven to be unfit, would the grandparent be able to contest it and win. Larry is the father and should have full, unfettered custody and be the only one to make choices for DL.
