Birkhead and Baby Back in Larry's Old Kentucky Home

Larry Birkhead is back -- finally -- on American soil with baby Dannielynn, and it sounds like he's ready to have some fun and, for his sake, eat some home cookin'

A distinctly gaunt Birkhead touched down in his hometown Louisville airport not long ago, and told our friends at WDRB FOX 41 in Louisville, "It just feels good to be home," adding that he's ready to "relax and horse around," which was appropriate enough given this Saturday's Kentucky Derby. He said he'll be heading to the Barnstable Brown party on Friday, which has particular meaning for him -- and his daughter -- as it's where he first met Anna Nicole Smith.

Birkhead shed a few tears as he spoke to reporters, but kept his baby, who has spent her entire life thus far in the Bahamas, shielded from view. He also wouldn't reveal whether he'll be staying in Louisville with Dannielynn, where his mother lives, or take her to his home base in Los Angeles.

"This is one pit stop," joked Birkhead.

31. He was so frazzled by the time he got off the plane in KY, he shielded Danni from view, and was........... frazzled .... Good Lord... let him get some rest. He seems to be ready for that. :-)

33. I was just wondering if the baby is to inherit her mothers estate if there is anything to inherit- then will she also inherit the debts and legal woes of her mothers estate? Anyone know about this kinda stuff?

37. FINALLY!!! I'm so happy for Larry and Danilynne! Now, I hope that he's able to shield her from all the nasty rubber-necks that will want a piece of her. Let Larry and his daughter alone to bond and try for a somewhat normal life!

Congrats Larry!

38. To Yankee...from another Yankee ~ have you never heard of very "SENSITIVE" people? I didn't see any tears flowing when he walked out of court with the DNA results. Also, considering all he's been through & having to control his feelings/emotions, maybe he finally reached his limit.

40. I am happy that Larry and baby are home. LARRY SAID Howard was a REALLY good guy. That he did everything for Anna. All the stuff that no one else would do (maby wiping up after her ETC.) Sorry Howard haters. I feeel sorry for him. The money (he) made off Dannylynn went into an account for her. He did not fight for custody...he had every right to Bahamas Law). Bio father or not. Only Pig Vergie did that. His life as he knew it is over. No Anna, no baby and all you haters. Best Wishes to Howard.

41. Larry is adorable and the baby is beautiful. I know his family will welcome the baby with open arms. It is time to let this family enjoy this moment. There is no need for some of you to keep dogging on Larry. The man has fought like a champ for his baby. We need to respect his privacy!!!!

42. Emma - essentially the answer is YES - whoever gains control of the estate of ANS - will have to deal with all the lawsuits filed against that estate - will be an ugley process.

I believe LB will gain full custody - but that does not mean he will gain control of the estate - will depend on the courts.

43. If any money goes to Anna's estate all debts and/or any outstanding legal proceedings that were filed against her the debt has to be paid first. When this is all over they probably wont be any funds left.

44. Larry don't let Virgie or Howard to tell you what to do with your own child. She is yours and what ever you do keep her away from both of them. If Virgie was so worried about being a grandmother then she would not have put you throught what she has. I would have been just thankful being the grandmother, I have two I can't see and it hurts, but I would never have done what she has to keep the baby like she wanted to. Good luck and best wished with the joy of you life! May God Smile Down on the Both of you!

45. OH it must feel so good to Larry be back home agaiin with his daughter after a long hard fight. Didn't John Denver sing a song like that??? "Hey its good to be back home again." Hurah for Larry. I can how he loves on her, can't stop kissing her. It is so cute. God bless them both. I know all things will work out for them financially and otherwise. How is he going to pay that nasty lawer fee Opri?? I hope he can make enough money to live. I heard he had a nanny all ready. I wonder who she is??

I bet the Bahama Nanny feels sad. She cared for her for so long.
