Anna Nicole Smith mourns her son; gives birth to a girl
Former Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith’s 20-year-old son died yesterday, just 4 days after she gave birth to a baby girl. This statement was released on Anna’s website:
On September 7th Anna Nicole gave birth to a healthy 6 pound, 9 ounce baby girl. Her son Daniel was in the Bahamas with her to share in the joy of his baby sister when he passed away suddenly on the morning of September 10th. We have yet to learn the cause of death but do not believe that drugs or alcohol were a factor. Anna Nicole is absolutely devastated by the loss of her son. He was her pride and joy and an amazing human being. Please do not make any press inquiries at this time so that Anna Nicole can grieve in peace.
The Nassau Guardian is reporting that Daniel suffered a “massive heart attack” while on the maternity ward in the hospital. Anna Nicole apparently tried to unsuccessfully revive him. The article goes on to say that police officials have been reluctant to release any other details.
This is undoubtedly devastating news for the 38-year-old mom. Daniel was frequently seen with his mom (usually looking embarrassed at his mother’s outrageous behavior) on her reality show The Anna Nicole Show.
No other details, including the name, have been released on her new little girl. Anna and her camp have also been tight-lipped as to the father of the baby, although there has been much speculation.
