Anna Nicole Smith's Daughter Named Sole Heir
March 4, 2008, 1:41 PM PST 
Anna Nicole Smith's daughter will inherit the
former Playboy model's estate.A Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled today that 18-month-old Dannielynn is sole heir. Her father, Larry Birkhead, and Smith's executor, Harry K. Stern, will be co-trustees. The judge granted a petition filed by Stern, who wanted to clarify Smith's intentions toward her daughter. Smith drafted a will in 2001 - five years before the child was born - that left her estate to her then-only son, Daniel. However, it said the assets Daniel's trust should be shared equally if she had future children. Daniel was 20 when he died in 2006, three days after Dannielynn was born. Dannielynn could inherit millions of dollars if the estate wins an ongoing court fight over a will by Smith's wealthy second husband, J. Howard Marshall, that left much of his fortune to the model. His relatives have been fighting the will for years. Copyright © 2008, The Associated Press
