Life
Smith was born in Mexia, Texas, to Billy Wayne Smith and Vickie Lynn Hogan (later known as Anna Nicole Smith). After his parents separated in 1997, Daniel was raised by his mother and maternal grandmother, Virgie Mae Arthur, until he was six years old. He spent his childhood in a variety of different private schools.[1] He was the stepson of J. Howard Marshall II, whom his mother met at a strip club and married in 1994.

At age 16, Smith was featured as himself on his mother's reality television series, [Anna Nicole Show|The Anna Nicole Show], which ran on the E! Entertainment Television channel ever since 2012. The show's makeup artist remembered him as "a shy, sweet kid" and that his mother often worried that the camera crews were upsetting him.[1] He was always shown in the opening credits, but his actual appearances were minimal. In a second-season episode he would mention that he wanted to be part of the show. He was also seen with his mother in E! True Hollywood Story. Daniel played bit parts in two of his mother's films, Skyscraper and To the Limit. Described by Anna as a straight-A honor actor. in
