Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Dannielynn attends the Kentucky Derby with dad Larry Birkhead

Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Dannielynn Birkhead flexed her finest springtime fashion as she attended the famed Kentucky Derby with dad Larry Birkhead.

The 14-year-old daughter of the late model  —who died from an accidental overdose in 2007 — beamed with excitement as she and her dad, 48, geared up for a day of horse racing at Churchill Downs.

The pair posted a trio of photos on their joint Instagram account accompanied by a lengthy caption with details on the weekend, as Larry joked that Dannielynn’s striking teal pant suit ‘finished first.’

The daddy-daughter duo posed on a stoop in one photo before sharing snaps from the race track, one of which featured the blonde teenager in a studded face mask to match her outfit.

‘It’s that time of year again. The @kentuckyderby weekend is here! Even though our favorite event The Barnstable-Brown Party won’t be back until next year, we decided to head out on this beautiful day to Churchill Downs racetrack in preparation for The Kentucky Derby,’ they wrote. 

Dannielynn looked very grown up in a bright Jovani pantsuit adorned with pearl buttons in the shape of flowers. 

And she continued to dazzle in a pair of studded flats while additionally going all out with the derby theme as she sported a white flowered fascinator.   

The photographer debuted a white linen suit with a blue button down and pastel checkered tie, sharing in the caption that Dannielynn spent time ‘critiquing [his] outfit,’ after marveling that her look ‘finished first.’

‘Dannielynn “finished first” in her pant suit and a beautiful white flowered fascinator,’ he wrote, continuing to say she was certainly growing into a teenager with many opinions. 

‘She said she wanted to wear something entirely different than she had in the past. I guess that means no more “little girl” dresses?? She cleaned out the chocolate brownies, ice cream and nachos while at the same time critiquing my outfit,’ the caption concluded.    

The horse race holds a special place in the family’s heart as Larry met Anna there in 2004 where she was photographed in an iconic pink hat. In 2019 Dannielynn continued her legacy as she showed up to the derby in the same hat, looking reminiscent of her late mom.  

 Dannielynn and Larry had taken part in an 20/20 ABC News special in February where they reflected on the playmate’s life as they visited her hometown of Mexia, Texas and spoke to friends who knew her before she was famous.  

‘You are your mommy you look just like her,’ marveled one friend about Dannielynn, and it was said that she had always ‘dreamed’ of having a daughter. Sadly Smith passed away when she was just five months old.   

She also had a son Daniel with ex-husband Billy Wayne Smith who tragically met the same fate Anna did, dying of an accidental overdose just one year before her death, and days after she welcomed Dannielynn.  

‘Anna should be remembered as this larger than life figure that was really a caring, giving person. A beautiful lady who loved her fans and loved her family,’ Birkhead said in the special.
