She was an outrageous media personality..yet human. Last year she gave birth to a daughter on Sep 7, 2006 and her 20 year old son died in the hospital while visiting her to see the new born on Sep 10, 2006! Despite all that this lady was associated with, she was after all a human being. May her soul rest in peace.
Anna Nicole Smith, a Playboy Playmate of the Year in 1993, model and reality television star, whose fame was fanned when she married a billionaire two generations her senior, collapsed in a Florida hotel yesterday and was declared dead after being taken to hospital. She was 39 years old.
There was no confirmation of a likely cause of death last night. Medical records and an autopsy will determine what medication Nicole Smith may have been taking, possibly including antidepressants, and whether they could have triggered her collapse, possibly from a heart attack. Results of tests should also help police determine whether an overdose may have been involved, making it a suicide case.
A police spokesman said Nicole Smith had been staying at the Hard Rock Café hotel in Hollywood, Florida, north of Miami since Monday and a nurse had called emergency services at about 1.40pm. Shortly afterwards a bodyguard tried to revive her. She was taken to the Hollywood Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead at 2.49pm.
