I also wanted to add that Birkhead said he had heard the announcement about her collapsing and how he wanted to go to Florida and was yelling at the TV to save her. So I'm assuming the gap between them finding out she had collapsed and the official announcement was pretty big.
I remener it was at least half an hour--maybe a little more (We could probably search the FR posts to be sure) I submitted a thread about her collapsing and then another thread started when she died. (our infamous 25k thread)
Yes it was. CNN was on at my moms house and the news break came in "Anna Nicole Unconcious and Unresponsive" and it stayed like that for about 20 minutes. So i started to log onto FR. And my duaghter asked "what're you doing? Do you think she's dead" and i said "yes, They just don't wanna say it yet".
