HOLLYWOOD - Anna Nicole Smith faces eviction from the Bahamas if claims made by a former boyfriend are true.
The actress/model, who buried her 20-year-old son Daniel in Nassau last week, has illegally claimed residency on the island if allegations made by South Carolina-based property developer Gaither Ben Thompson are to be believed.
A spokeswoman for the realtor tells TMZ.com the busty blonde bought a Bahamian property on credit from Thompson, whom she briefly dated, but has not paid a penny for it.
A source tells the Web site Smith attempted to convince Thompson he was the father of her newborn baby Dannielynn in May--a month before another ex, Larry Birkhead, went public about the pregnancy, claiming he was the biological father.
Thompson laughed off the claims because he had undergone a vasectomy before he started dating Smith.
Shortly after this incident, Smith and her attorney Howard K. Stern jetted to the Bahamas and took up residency in one of Thompson's homes.
But now, the real estate tycoon's lawyer, Tracy Ferguson, claims the $1 million property that helped her establish legal residency in the Bahamas under the premise she owned a home there, is not really hers.
Ferguson tells TMZ.com that her client sold one of his homes to Smith on credit, but has never paid a cent. Ferguson says Anna Nicole is in default and Thompson wants her out by the end of the month.
