At the Crow's Nest Nursery in

D-N-A results show Larry
Birkhead, ex-boyfriend of the late Anna
Nicole Smith, is the father of
Dannielynn.

After the hearing, Stern said he
wouldn't fight for custody.

He's been listed as the father on
the birth certificate.

The baby could end up inheriting
a huge fortune, in the wake of her
mother's death in February.

A jubilant Birkhead said, "My

baby's going to be coming home pretty
soon."
