Another horrible, horrible headline, but this is serious, sad business. Anna Nicole: Son Dies, Daughter Is Born Apparently, Anna Nicole Smith gave birth to a baby girl in the Bahamas Thursday. Three days later -- on Sunday -- her 20-year-old son, Daniel, who was always on her reality show died! Here's a statement on Anna Nicole's official site: "On Sept. 7 Anna Nicole gave birth to a healthy 6 lb., 9 oz. baby girl. Her son Daniel was in the Bahamas with her to share in the joy of his baby sister when he passed away suddenly on the morning of Sept. 10. We have yet to learn the cause of death but do not believe that drugs or alcohol were a factor. Anna Nicole is absolutely devastated by the loss of her son. He was her pride and joy and an amazing human being. Please do not make any press inquiries at this time so that Anna Nicole can grieve in peace." Sorry to be such a buzzkill so early in the morning. But the news depressed me too, so we're in good company.
