Larry Birkhead: Dannielynn is the #1 Lady in My Life
“The only lady in my life is my daughter, and she takes all my time, and that’s all I need right now — making up for lost time…We’re just having fun together and hanging out”–Larry Birkhead, speaking of his 11-month-old daughter Dannielynn.
I’ve previously discussed the Larry Birkhead vs. Anna Nicole Smith/Howard K. Stern/Anna’s mother/many others custody battle–to learn more, see my co-authored column Anna Nicole dispute shows system’s flaws (Chicago Sun-Times and others, 3/10/07) or click here. The Birkhead case was an excellent example of the way mothers and their allies are able to prevent fathers from having access to their babies and playing a role in their lives. Were this not a high-profile case, Birkhead may well have ended up like the legions of fathers in my email In Box–allowed no role in the lives of the children who love them and need them.
According to this recent ET blurb, Birkhead is enjoying his life with his little girl:
Can you believe that baby DANNIELYNN is almost one year old already? Now, LARRY BIRKHEAD gives ET the latest update as we reveal exclusive photos of father and daughter!
“Every day she does something new, and now she’s sharing her bottle with me,” Larry tells our own MARK STEINES. “So if I say, ‘Give daddy a drink,’ she’ll toss it over her shoulder. It’s cool being a dad.”
The former boyfriend of the late ANNA NICOLE and the father of her baby came out to the big Hollywood premiere of ‘The Bourne Ultimatum’ Wednesday night with his nephew, and said that the requirements of being a new dad are almost the same as being a super spy.
“If Matt Damon drops out of the next movie, maybe I’ll be available,” he jokes. “I’ve been punched and kicked and slapped by my daughter, so I’m in defense mode. She’s using me as a teething ring.”
But there was one hitch on the way to the red carpet: “She actually spit up on my jacket I was going to wear, so I had to take it off and do a quick change.”
Dannielynn is going to have her first birthday in September, and Larry says he’s weighing his options for the special day.
“I’m thinking big,” he says. “Her mom called her princess, so [I'm thinking of doing] something kind of Disney princess, or Hello Kitty — something real cool, so she can look back on it and say, ‘What a cool party.’”
As for any ladies in his life, Larry says there’s only one girl for him right now.
“The only lady in my life is my daughter, and she takes all my time, and that’s all I need right now — making up for lost time,” he says. “We’re just having fun together and hanging out.”
I can certainly relate to that–my daughter is the number 1 lady in my life, and she knows it. I was her primary caregiver during her first three years, and it was absolutely the best time of my life, bar none. I wish more men had the opportunity to be home with their infant children. I’m not sure how long Dannielynn will be the “only” lady in Birkhead’s life, but I’m glad he’s enjoying things.

Well Glen you are correct if this were not a ” high profile” case the family court terrorist would have took the child and told Larry Burkhead ” sorry charlie, your a a man and you don’t have no stinkin rights”( or even rights that smell good, which reminds me, nothing about the family courts ever smells right.)
The only reason Larry Burkhead got his daughter, yes I said his daughter, not the other guy, not the grandmother or the state, was that the whole thing was way to public for the family court terrorist to do what they usually do. Way too many people are watching and more are begining to wake up to find what a kidnapping and extortion racket the whole thing really is.
The thing that really made the feminazi’s really cry, was that a MAN got the child and nobody got paid in the deal. It may also be a precedent in other cases where a MAN may get custody and the rights that go with it. So .. by feminist thinking if a MAN wins then they don’t!!!
