What a sad, sad story. All I can think is that maybe now her baby has somewhat of a chance at a normal life...

Yeah, her mom comes across as hypocritical bitch, to be honest. Her sister is the same way. I don't think anything either of them says can be trusted.

P.S. That Anna Nicole's mother is speaking about Anna's money and who gets it, immediately after her death, speaks volumes to me.

But I think that the mother could honestly be concerned about Howard K Stern having always been after Anna's money. I know for myself, I also have a friend who is in a very similar situation as Anna Nicole (though she is not a celebrity). Myself and other friends have deep concerns about her husband and his motives. You can bet that if she were to end up the same way as Anna Nicole, the first thing we'd think of is the money and our suspicions about the husband. Not for any gain for ourselves of course, but because we'd been suspicious all along.

Yes, but you care about your friend. I honestly don't think Anna Nicole's mother cares that much about her. I think she just wants the money. Her behavior up to this point says "I'm a spiteful, money-hungry hag!" more than "I miss my daughter so much!".

Sunta: I hear you. I know you can certainly be correct. But if Anna Nicole's mother had a lot of love for her daughter, instead of displaying so much scorn for her behavior she would be talking about her love and that perhaps her daughter was misunderstood, etc., instead of being so concerned about the dispensation of Anna Nicole's money and gloating over the fact that she was right about Anna's drug use.

Anna Nicole was into some drugs before she ever met Stern. The fact that she did trust him and did feel that he was looking out for her, tells me that at some point he had to have proved his loyalty to her and it makes me want to give him a fair shot at proving that his love and concern for her was legitimate. The way he spoke about her family sounded to me like a person who was upset with them about how they treated Anna Nicole when she was alive and like he is still protecting her from their meanness and greed. Quite a contrast to how Anna Nicole's mother is behaving.

It has all been filtered through the media though, so it's anyone's guess at this point. It seems that maybe our own experiences are having a big impact on how we are interpreting the remarks and body language of her family, friends and Stern.

I know it is seedy and scandelous to some people, but I believe it is always interesting to witness and try to understand human behavior.

Absolutely. I couldn't agree more! Especially about it being filtered through the media. It's impossible to know the real story.

One camp says Howard is a bad guy, the other camp says Howard was the only one who ever really cared for Anna. Two completely different takes on the same story. Maybe the truth lies somewhere in between...

Sunta: I'll bet you're absolutely right!

I say there are always three sides to every story because how we see things is always skewed. There is side 1, side 2 and somewhere in the middle is the real truth! But in this case much like Marilyn Monroe we may never know the real truth!

You want to know why she hated her Mom so much??? Well I can't answer that question for her--she's gone on. I know that from where I 've been at in the world--I could easily be a hater of my Mother. But I have said--"Lee think, then forgive".How would you feel-- if you went to visit--but seen this: $50,000 on your picture then you realize your insurance policy is for $50,000(back in the day of that amount) What would you think your Mom was hoping on someday???... Some of us forgive and some of us stay away from such non-sense. So instead--I moved out of my area so I could at least 1,000 to 1600 miles away from where I grew up at. Time doesn't always heal wounds, but distance can sure make you calm. It's a possibility she told her Daughter--"You aint gonna amount to nothing". Then Nicole left and never looked back....Come on--we need to scope out the whole picture.:faint:

Think about this: If Anna Nicole was entitled to $450 MILLION, then her offspring would be heirs. One is already gone; Anna Nicole is gone. The only heir to her estate is her baby. If it is Stern's baby, then he would be entitled to a portion of that estate to raise the child. And of course, he would manage the funds as a lawyer? Were they in the Bahamas to get drugs more easily, manipulate the law to claim Stern as the father?

I suspected that the son complained of pain and that the methadone was shared by Stern or Anna Nicole. They probably married so neither could testify against the other.

Yeah, I feel sorry for her, but the poor helpless baby is the one suffering now.

They weren't legally married. I think they just had a commitment ceremony. They were going to be legally married in two weeks when she died.

Money drives the world.......I can't see anyone who I claim to love--dyin just so I can get my hands on $450M...Then again--I am only one Man saying what I feel. Our world is filled with monsters who say they are Human

A marine's wife was convicted of poisoning her husband in order to get breast implants with the minimal military life insurance!

There is another world out there!

well...she wanted that $175,000 life insurance he had. Then she did the breast implants---then had affiars with some of his friends---so called friends. Oh, I was a apart of that world of the rough and tough. Where we'd do a lot of things with any feeling for the next Man But for me--even as I learned to inflict death as a soldier. It's ever got that deep. Nicole hung around the wrong snakes...LL

Well I haven't heard anything about this, but I do know that the medical examiner was asked point blank "Was there any evidence that she had weight loss surgery?" and he replied "No."

I saw that on Larry King.

He also said that every rumor he has heard is "totally unsubstantiated" and that there's "no evidence" to any of the rumors (pnumonia, lupus, etc) and that the tabloids are "using only their imaginations" to come up with these stories.

Could you post the link where you saw the story?
