While he possesses the skills and charisma to further establish himself in the industry, he has not pursued these opportunities extensively.

Relationship with Anna Nicole Smith
Between 2005 and 2006, Birkhead was in a relationship with Anna Nicole Smith. Though they were never officially married, their time together became tabloid fodder, particularly after Smith gave birth to a daughter in September 2006. Smith initially claimed her lawyer and companion, Howard K. Stern, was the father, and the child was named Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern.
Following Smith's sudden death in 2007, Birkhead initiated a legal case to establish paternity. Supported by Anna’s mother, Birkhead eventually won the case. DNA testing confirmed that he was the biological father, and the court ordered that the child’s name be changed to Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead, legally recognizing Larry as her father.
