Howard K. Stern was a well-kept man – while Anna Nicole Smith was still alive. Now that she’s gone, he’s not doing so well. In an interview with Us Weekly, Stern admits that he’s in some financial trouble.

“I am in debt and basically broke. There’s this impression out there that I am somehow making money off of Anna’s death. It couldn’t be further from the truth.”

He does, however, have a $60 million libel suit against author Rita Crosby (she writes in her book that Stern and Larry Birkhead engaged in homosexual acts). No telling how that’ll play out.
