Anna Nicole Smith's 20-year-old son has died suddenly while visiting her in hospital after the birth of her daughter.
The former model was recovering in hospital in the Bahamian capital of Nassau when her son Daniel died at her bedside.
According to the police, Daniel Smith was found sitting upright in a chair in his mother's room at the private hospital where she was a patient.
Police also confirmed that there were no signs of trauma on the body or of a struggle in the room.
Assistant police commissioner Reginald Ferguson said that an autopsy was due to be performed at a local hospital.
"It would not be wise for police to try and come to a conclusion before we have a proper investigation," he said.
Smith's lawyer, Howard K. Stern, said: "Anna Nicole is absolutely devastated by the loss of her son. He was her pride and joy and an amazing human being."
