The trailer for the new documentary about the turbulent life of late Playboy playmate Anna Nicole Smith was released on Monday touching on many personal moments including her marriage to 89-year-old billionaire J. Howard Marshall.
The two-and-a-half-minute clip — which boasts a never-before-seen look at the bombshell — promises a revealing look at its legacy.
Smith — born Vicki Lynn Hogan — died of a prescription drug overdose at just 39 years old in February 2007.
In the trailer, there is an interview with the late supermodel where she says, “I want a lot of money to make my dreams come true.”
Soon after, one of those interviewed for the documentary said: “Then I met J. Howard Marshall who’s a billionaire with a ‘B’ grade.”

There were sweet clips on display of their home life together including one of Smith behind the wheel of an ATV with Marshall behind.
Another commenter added, “What impressed me was how much they loved each other.”
Smith met oil tycoon Marshall while performing at a Houston strip club in October 1991 while she was 24 and he was 86.
The two enjoyed a two-year relationship with Marshall reportedly showering her with expensive gifts and asking the blonde bombshell’s hand in marriage on several occasions.
The two eventually married on June 27, 1994 which led to speculation that Smith was only marrying him for the money despite her insistence that she loved him and that age did not matter to her.
But 13 months after their wedding day, Marshall passed away at the age of 90 on August 4, 1995.
She was later involved in a very ugly court battle over his estate after his death as he had verbally promised her half of his estate which consisted of 16 percent of Koch Industries which was worth $1.6 billion at the time.
Smith appeared in court saying, “He was just a wonderful man whom I loved dearly.”
