What's wrong with him wanting to show off his daughter and the fact that he's the dad? The Paparazzi can sell photos for thousands of dollars. I don't care if Larry sells pictures it's done all the time.Celebrities sell photos of their children and babies too. I think it's time to leave this guy alone.

Nothing wrong with him making money off the pictures to pay off his lawyers fees. Good for him, he should have never had to go in such great debt to get his own daughter.

Hes not getting the money himself its gone to his daughters trust fund the editor from ok has confirmed that cos she had to authorise payment. And tbh your right he shouldnt have had to go to such great lengths to get his daughter but firstly. Debra Opri kept filing in the states . Once it was all dealt with in the Bahamas everything got done quickly. Secondly it would have made sense to get a Bahamaian lawyer in the first place seeing as thats where the baby was and american lawyers cant even practice in the Bahamas. The other thing its a family matter so why and get DO who in fact is a publicity lawyer rather than one specializing in custody matters. So yea its cost a lot but most of it could have been avoided had he got a proper lawyer from the start.

I guess to me...i dont see it as that bad but saying that you have to understand with me being English as an unmarried father we are used to the guys having no rights. The other thing in all fairness...we dont know if there were any reasons she didnt want him involved with the baby. Only 2 maybe three really know what happened and one of those isnt here now .

To be fair....and neither madonna or angelina r my fave people but they do give tons of there own money to charity. The other thing is the media would follow these ppl until they got the pictures. By going to ok or hello etc that stops a lot of that happening ( tjho im not a fan of those sort of magazines )

I don't blame anyone for getting money honestly if they really need it. I think that Larry is comfortable, but it's no way he could pay for all the expenses that he has incurred the past 6 months. So, he may have no choice but to sell the photographs of he and the baby. Everyone has to know that this would happen. Dannielynn's picture is big news now and probably will be for some time to come. I guess that being a free lance photographer, he can pick and choose his work. However, he has to be concerned with the safety of this child. He will likely need to be at home and close to home a lot more than he was. Then, he will be making trips to Kentucky because his family is there, and he will need their love and support more than ever. He can breathe a sign of relief for now, but he will still have many difficult days ahead and his work is just beginning. He needs to spend time to bond with his daughter and just get comfortable with all the rigors of single parenthood. Dannielynn needs to be examined and tested by a good pediatrician because of the drug use by her mother. And, he needs not to forget, his every move will be under the microscope. All the news media will be waiting for him to do something stupid or for some skeleton to fall out of his closet. One report said that he had lost 20 pounds during this ordeal. He needs to rest and take care of his health. Please, we don't need to have another tragedy in this already sad saga. Larry, I wish you the best, and I'm glad that you have Dannielynn. I think the whole world is happy for this adorable little girl!!
