Larry Birkhead celebrated his daughter’s 20th birthday with a collection of memorable photos. On September 7, he shared a video collage on Instagram for Dannielynn’s special day. The post included both recent pictures and cherished childhood memories, accompanied by “Happy Birthday” by Lenny Kravitz.
The collage featured Dannielynn dressed in a black outfit with sunglasses, a childhood photo of her smiling in a bathing suit, and another where she wore a pink tutu, hugging her father.
“Happy 20th Birthday Dannielynn! Love, Dad,” Birkhead warmly captioned the post.
Followers of Birkhead commented on how quickly time has passed, expressing disbelief at Dannielynn’s growth and celebrating the milestone birthday.
Larry Birkhead shared Dannielynn with the late Anna Nicole Smith. The two met at the Kentucky Derby in 2004, and Dannielynn was born in 2006. Following Smith’s death in 2007, Birkhead became the primary caregiver, raising Dannielynn with a focus on privacy.
Despite her sheltered upbringing, Birkhead and Dannielynn maintain a tradition of attending the Kentucky Derby. The event holds sentimental value, marking the place where Birkhead met Smith.
In an interview with Fox News Digital, Birkhead shared that attending the event honors the past while creating new memories. “Since I did meet her mom there, it started off just kind of me taking her back and showing her around,” he stated.
At the Derby, people often seek out Dannielynn, as she rarely attends public events. Birkhead considers the occasion a “growth chart” for his daughter, marking each year they’ve attended since she was three.
