ORIGINAL: pahunkboy her will states no future mate has claim to her inheritance,. dated 2001. meaning fathering the child doesnt mean control of money. Paternity does not equal inherritance under the law. Think of it this way... Say you get into a one-night stand with a famous celeb and she gets pregnant and has a baby. She then dies several months later. Her only kin is her newborn child. Since you were never married to her, you have no right to her money. Your only connection is that you are the father of her only surviving kin. Which means the child gets the inherritance, not the kid's father. No one can touch that money until the child reaches the age of maturity, which is age 18. Marriage however would have changed everything. Because legally you cannot write your spouse out of the will. Had Anna Nicole married someone, that person would be the executor of her assets whether he was the child's father or not.
