DNA test results for Dannielynn are to be announced Tuesday.

Just in: Anna Nicole's partner says he wants what's best for Dannielynn.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sources told ET Sunday that HOWARD K. STERN is more than prepared for whatever Tuesday's DNA paternity results may show, and for the possibility that he could lose custody of baby DANNIELYNN to photographer LARRY BIRKHEAD.

"If Larry Birkhead is confirmed to be Dannielynn's biological father, Howard will not challenge custody," our sources say. "His love for her will not change, irrespective of the results. Howard will act in Dannielynn's best interest, because he loves her and would want a smooth transition to protect her, as she is deeply bonded to those who have been with her since birth.

"While Howard continues to believe and hope that he is Dannielynn's biological father, he wants to be involved in her life, regardless of paternity. He wants to share the memories of her mother as the person who knew Anna best and all she wanted for Dannielynn."

Sources also tell ET that Howard would do "whatever is necessary" to help Larry keep Anna's estranged mother, VIRGIE ARTHUR, from obtaining custody of Dannielynn.

Virgie recently filed papers in the Bahamas hoping to become Dannielynn's guardian ad litem. Her attorney tells ET that Virgie wants to be the court-appointed guardian for the Bahamian proceedings and is also seeking long-term custody. A hearing is set for April 13th regarding this matter.

ET's sources add, "Howard was not part of the paternity lawsuit filed while Anna Nicole was alive. The first person to challenge Howard on custody was Virgie Arthur -- not Larry Birkhead. Howard is dedicated to Virgie Arthur not having custody of Dannielynn. He is well aware of how Anna Nicole felt about 'Mommy Dearest' and Anna's feelings were clear regarding Virgie Arthur being anywhere near Dannielynn.

"Speculation that this is somehow about money for Howard is misguided and wrong. Howard has never made a TV or book deal even though he is the one who knew Anna Nicole best.

"Howard wants Anna Nicole to be remembered as an icon like MARILYN MONROE, and he knows a lot of damage has been done to her image in the past two months. This restoration of Anna's image is important for Dannielynn and the views she will have of her mother as she grows up. He also wants to make sure that only Dannielynn profits from Anna Nicole's name, likeness and estate."

But even if Larry is found to be Dannielynn's biological father on Tuesday, Court TV correspondent MICHEL BRYANT tells us that could set up another long court battle over custody.

"That won't mean Larry goes from here, gets the baby and goes to L.A.," he tells ET. "It will take a while."

Yeh....Showing videos of Anna whacked out of her head in the time between Danny’s death and her death was really, really good for her image.

Good evening Texkat and all! Hope everyone has had a joyous Easter!

Saw th TMZ story re: STern not going to fight Larry B if DNA tests show LB to be Dannielynn's father....but will join with LB to see that Virgie does not get custody of the baby.

Well - that is good news. For Larry.

It could be the total determined effort to make Virgie the truly "bad guy" in all this is moving to its next level - primarily because

a) Stern knows Virgie will not stand for Stern to have any part in custody of that baby

b) Stern knows that Virgie is the one who will likely continue legal action to bring justice for her dead child and grandchild - meaning chances the FL case could be reopened and that the Bahamas case may bring out bad news that he wants refocused onto Virgie and not on him....since it could lead to real trouble for HKS.

c) Stern wants to try to be sure the LB does NOT connect with Virgie re: joint custody for the baby even AS HER GRANDMOTHER!!!!! .....and finally

d) Stern wants Larry to have no part in the wrongful death action / legal investigations / lawsuits that should come Stern's way and/or KE's way after all the facts are out re: both Anna's death and Daniel's death. Therefore, Virgie would be isolated and not being wealthy could find very little resources to do what it will take to get the questions answered that as of today remain unanswered re: both Anna's and Daniel's deaths.

One last thing - and then I am actually going to shut up and finish watching the part of the Sound of Music I didn't see last night.....

I was watching one of the "investigative" programs earlier today where a woman went missing - and they couldn't figure what happened to you. She had been out walking and never came home.

Turned out an investigator just happened to find out the wife of the man living next door to this woman ALSO went missing and they couldn't find her either.

The police investigator said, "When you have one occurrance it's one thing. When you have two occurrances in similar circumstances, you have to think there could be a link between them."

I want to say with all the clarity I can muster:

The only reason I became interested in this Anna Nicole / Daniel Smith death investigation (besides the baby) is because both deaths happened under similar circumstances.

As the police guy says - TWO occurances under similar circumstances INDICATE THERE MAY BE A LINK BETWEEN THE TWO....and that link is Howard K. Stern!

He was THERE at both deaths.

As we know know PRESCRIPTION DRUGS were involved in both deaths.

Both people were found not breathing.

There are more duplications - maybe others can post them (of course we don't know all the facts YET even though Daniel died BEFORE Anna).

When Daniel died - I really didn't take notice. But when Anna Nicole died - it was this "double occurrance" under similar circumstances and with the same person around - that immediately made my amateur investigative antennae go up.

So far nothing has been shown to say there is not a link between their deaths, just the opposite.

And if Daniel could be re-exhumed and checked for Chloral Hydrate in his system - we might have THE LINK exposed.

Birkhead would be a fool to make any negotiations with a man who purposely fled the country to assist in withholding Birkhead's child from him. (If indeed that proves to be true)

No amount of 11th-hour, change of heart by Howard K. Stern to "do the right thing", while slipping in the financial advantages he wants, changes the fact that Howard K. Stern was just as responsible in this devious plot as Anna Nicole Smith was.

I guess we'll see what Larry Birkhead is actually made of on Tuesday, but I don't rule out a Thompson baby either.

This saga has all the drama to include that sort of twist.

If we see Larry walking out of the court house with Dannielynn in his arms we will know then that he is his her father (99.9% sure). They are still under a gag order and will probably be even after court on Tuesday.
