(Hollywood Reporter) More vie for Anna Nicole’s baby, Bahamas mansionThere are now four paternity claims over the late Anna Nicole Smith’s five-month-old daughter, Dannielynn. In addition to previous claims from her lawyer/companion Howard K. Smith and former boyfriend Larry Birkhead, Prince Frederic von Anhalt (who is Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband) claimed on Friday that he may have fathered the girl during what he says was a decade-long affair with Smith. The fourth possible father, according to Smith’s half-sister Donna Hogan, is Smith’s late tycoon husband, J. Howard Marshall II; Hogan says Smith harvested and froze Marshall’s sperm before he died in 1995. Meanwhile, a battle looms over Smith’s mansion in Nassau, The Bahamas. Another former beau, G. Ben Thompson, says he owns the house and loaned it to Smith, but Stern claims it was a gift. He and the baby took residence in the house on Sunday, three days after Smith’s death.
