Dannielynn Officially Declared Anna's Sole Heir

Posted Mar 4th 2008 2:13PM by TMZ Staff

Dannielynn, Anna Nicole Smith Anna Nicole Smith's 18-month-old daughter Dannielynn has been declared the sole heir to the former Playmate's estate.

Smith's attorney and companion Howard K. Stern had sought to clarify Smith's final wishes as her will was written in 2001 -- five years before the little girl was born.

In addition, the judge also established a trust in Dannielynn's name, and named Stern and the child's father Larry Birkhead as co-trustees.

The toddler could stand to inherit millions from the fortune of her mother's late husband, billionaire J. Howard Marshall, which is still tied up in a heated court battle.

5. Give the little girl the money. Her mother worked hard for it and earned it! (That's one job I couldn't do for any amount of money). PS a little more advice would be to get rid of Stern, he's a maggot.

6. This is why they are harrasing Brittney. If TMZ pushes her over the edge they can still write crap more then a year after her death.

8. I think this is great news for Dannielynn! The money is rightfully hers. It's nice to hear some good news to come out of Hollywood for a change.

11. I hope that the trust is as tight as can be or that maggot of a father of hers will whore through it all. He is a snake if there ever was one. Everyone dumps on Stern 0-yes he isn't too upstanding either - but the sperm donor is the one to watch!

12. There is no money. Anna was a goldigger and in the end, the court will do the right thing and keep it in the Marshall family where it belongs.

13. For gosh sakes! She just an innocent baby. I'd like to kick the crap out of Nasty Thing and Freak Kid. This is what's wrong with the world now. NO HOME TRAINING. Who raised you, your crack addicted grand parents?

14. That freak Stern and the equally freakish Birkhead will probably gets loads of money from the estate as trustee fees. I really hope the Marshalls keep all their money. Nobody deserves it but the Marshalls!
