Anna Nicole Smith was born Vickie Lynn Hogan in 1967. She grew up in Houston, Texas, and was raised primarily by her mother and her aunt. Her father reportedly decided to up and leave when Anna was still only a baby.<\/p>\n

Friends have talked about Anna\u2019s difficult upbringing, describing it as very tough. Her mother, Virgie, was very stern.<\/p>\n

\u201cVickie\u2019s childhood life was tough. [Her mother] was very\u2026 forthright and very strict,\u201d longtime friend Jo McLemore told\u00a0ABC News.<\/p>\n

Anna dropped out of high school and found love in 16-year-old Billy Smith, himself a fellow drop-out. They married quickly, and soon after that, Anna had her first child. Her son, Daniel, was born when Anna was only 18 years old.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the marriage with Billy didn\u2019t last very long. Anna Nicole became a single mother raising a son \u2013 this without an education or a job. In the end, she became a dancer at a bar. One thing led to another, and suddenly the young, blond bombshell from Houston caught the eye of the mighty Playboy Magazine.<\/p>\n
