Here's a result about as shocking as news of a Jason Wahler arrest:
Larry Birkhead is the father of Anna Nicole Smith's 7-month-old daughter, Dannielynn.
"I hate to be the one who told you this, but: I told you so," Birkhead told reporters outside the Bahamas courthouse. "I'm the father."
"Thank you for your support. Thank you for the people who got me this far," he said, choking up.
"Thank you very much. My baby's gonna be coming home pretty soon."
Asked about when he would take Dannielynn home, he said, "Things are moving quickly here, and we'll see what happens."
Reportedly, the deranged mother of Anna Nicole Smith - Virgie Arthur - is still fighting for custody and the group will be back in court on Friday.
Birkhead had submitted his own DNA for testing, while Dannielynn's was tested on March 21 following a recommendation by a Bahamas Supreme Court Judge. Howard K. Stern, Smith's companion who is named as Dannielynn's father on her birth certificate, did not undergo DNA testing.
But he was surprisingly supporting of Birkhead, saying: "I am obviously very disappointed ... I am not going to fight Larry Birkhead for custody. I will do everything I can to make sure he gets sole custody."
Good. Now that this business is behind us, we can go back to focusing on important topics such as what the heck is going on with Britney Spears' boobs.

Congrats to Larry! He always seemed to be the most sincere candidate! He seems like a pretty nice guy who really cares for the wellbeing of the baby--his baby!
And now that baby needs a parent more than ever!
Having the undying love of her dad now may be worth more to 'lil Dannielynn than the multi-million$ ever would be....

Larry,
Welcome to the world of parenthood. I'm so happy for you. I hope you can take your daughter "home" at the earliest possible time.
Good luck in all your future endeavours. Give a big hug to Dannielynn for me.
