New York, Sept 19(ANI): While she is still mourning the death of her 20 year old son, it seems the tragic event has left Anna Nicole Smith much richer.
The 38-year-old and her photo agent, Getty Images, have received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the sale of the lad's final pictures with his mother and his new sister in a Bahamian maternity ward.
Smith's son Daniel was found slumped dead in a chair on Sept. 10. And while causes of the tragic death are still unknown, sources claim that In Touch magazine has paid as much as 400,000 dollars for the print exclusive on photos, and the Paramount-produced television shows "Entertainment Tonight" and "The Insider" have forked out an estimated 250,000 dollars for the TV exclusive.
"There is an incredible amount of emotion attached to this story and the photos, and our story will be a tribute to Daniel's life as a well as a celebration of it,"The New York Daily News quoted a spokesman for the publication, as saying.
Sources claim that Anna Nicole has vague plans to use a portion of the money for a Daniel Smith memorial, but what percentage of the proceeds Getty would take as a commission is yet unknown.(ANI)
