Birkhead originally met American Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith in May 2004 at the Trish Barnstable Brown Gala. It is one of the major Louisville-area Kentucky Derby parties that attracts many celebrities. The Kentucky native and celebrity photographer brought his challenge to court to legitimize his claim of fathering Anna Nicole Smith’s months old baby.

Little Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead was five months old when her mother died of a prescription drug overdose at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Dannielynn was declared sole heir to Smith’s estate, estimated at $700,000 in 2008.

Several men claimed paternity for Dannielynn , including Howard K. Stern, Mark Hatten, Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt, and Smith’s former bodyguard, Alexander Denk. A DNA test which was provided by Michael L. Baird proved that Birkhead had fathered Smith’s infant daughter who was then named Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern. She had claimed that her attorney and partner, Stern, was the father.

A Bahamian court ordered custody of Dannielynn to be transferred from Stern to Birkhead in April 2007. Birkhead corrected her birth certificate to show him as father and he renamed her Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead. Nicole Smith’s mother Virgie Arthur filed for the custody of Dannielynn. She also tried to block Birkhead from leaving the country with the baby. A Bahamas judge in the Court of Appeals in Nassau tossed out Virgie Arthur’s appeal and then ordered her to pay $3000 in attorney’s fees.

Television news anchor, Rita Cosby alleged in her book, Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith’s Death, that Smith’s nannies revealed that a sex tape existed of Stern and former rival Larry Birkhead engaged in a homosexual relationship.

A lawyer for the nannies then threatened to file suit, claiming that the nannies never spoke about such an encounter between Stern and Birkhead. After Howard K. Stern filed a $60-million libel suit against Cosby and her publisher in October 2007, a spokesperson for the nannies claimed Cosby had then offered bribes in an unsuccessful attempt to contact the nannies.
