Anna Nicole Smith and son Daniel share a laugh together before going to a party at Hugh Hefner's Playboy mansion in LA two years ago to celebrate Halloween.
Anna Nicole Smith's representatives have allegedly secured more than $600,000 for the last pictures of her dead son, it was claimed.
The former Playmate posed with tragic Daniel and his new sister in a Bahamian maternity ward the night before he was found dead.
Daniel, 20, was discovered slumped in a chair at the hospital on September 10.
Authorities in the Caribbean have launched an inquiry into the sudden death of Daniel, who was known to be taking anti-depressants at the time.
Smith's representatives and her photo agent Getty Images have been paid the cash by a US magazine and TV shows, the New York Daily News reports.
In Touch magazine paid a reported $400,000 for the print exclusive.
And the Paramount-produced television shows Entertainment Tonight and The Insider allegedly paid an estimated $250,000 for the TV rights.
"There is an incredible amount of emotion attached to this story and the photos, and our story will be a tribute to Daniel's life as well as a celebration of it," an In Touch spokesman told the Daily News.
"I'm told that Anna Nicole has vague plans to use a portion of the money for a Daniel Smith memorial and it wasn't clear yesterday what percentage of the proceeds Getty is taking as a commission," columnist Lloyd Grove wrote.
Anna Nicole Smith has still not been seen publicly since the sudden death of her son.
A spokesman for Paramount Television did not make a comment.
