Dannielynn becomes heir to Nicole Smith's estate · 2008-03-05 19:24
Anna Nicole Smith's daughter will inherit her late mother's estate.
A Los Angeles judge on Tuesday made 18-month-old Dannielynn the sole heir and set up a trust in the girl's name.
Her father, Larry Birkhead, and Smith's executor, Howard K. Stern, will be co-trustees, Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff granted a petition filed by Stern, who wanted to clarify Smith's will. Smith drafted a will in 2001 that left her estate to her son Daniel. But it said the assets in Daniel's trust should be shared equally if she had future children. Daniel died in 2006, three days after Dannielynn was born.
