Dannielynn Birkhead, the daughter of the late Anna Nicole Smith and Larry Birkhead, just turned 16 years old. Larry shared several photos over the years to celebrate Dannielynn’s birthday, along with a heartwarming caption.
Larry wrote, “Sixteen years ago my beautiful baby was born. That’s if you want to feel really old. Many people thought the odds were stacked against you, but maybe that was geared more towards me than you. Through tragedy, turmoil and a couple of baby tantrums-today you shine bright and are so accomplished. So proud to be your Dad!”
He continued, “When I told Dannielynn what a great baby she was when she born, she shot back in true Dannielynn style … ‘How do you know you weren’t even there?’ Ouch. I told her ‘maybe not, but I have been there every day since I brought you home.’ It’s been a wild ride and Dannielynn has brought joy and laughter to my life. Stay off your local roads because Dannielynn is 16! Happy Birthday. Rock. On. Mom is looking down.”
After Anna died, Larry had to prove that Dannielynn was his child and faced a custody battle. At the time, Frederic van Anhalt also claimed that he was the father but that was proven to be false. These days, Larry and Dannielynn stay largely out of the spotlight, only re-appearing every year for the Kentucky Derby.
It is a special time for the father and daughter duo as Larry and Anna first met at the Kentucky Derby in 2003. Now, Dannielynn dresses up each year and fans love to see how much she’s grown up. Her mom sure would be proud.
