A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge issued a ruling this morning granting temporary guardianship of Michael Jackson’s three children to his mother, Katherine Jackson. Judge Mitchell Beckloff has set a hearing for July 6 at 8:30 a.m. for the case, where the children do not have to be present.
Prince Michael Jr., 12, Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and Prince Michael II, 7, are living with their grandmother and their grandfather, Joe Jackson, and have a “long established relationship” with her, the filing stated.
My gosh, I didn’t realize those kids have gotten to be so old! In my mind, they’re all still little babies, but Prince and Paris are in middle-school by now. The fact that I was unaware of their ages speaks volumes about what a good job the Jackson family has done of keeping them out of the spotlight. I wonder if they’ll eventually decide they want to be public figures. I don’t know why, but I have this hunch that in ten years we’re going to be seeing the Prince Michael Jackson album shoot to the top of the charts.
Anyway, Debbie Rowe (who’s the biological mother of the two older kids — the youngest was conceived by a surrogate), is still seeking custody of the children. I don’t know all the legal ins and outs here, but I do know that courts are almost always inclined to grant custody to the biological mother in cases like this. (I know that from attending my law school, Law & Order, for over a decade.) I can only hope they make the decision that’s in the best interest of these children.
I don’t know why you would expect Prince Michael Jackson to inherit any abilities from Michael since he has no blood relationship with the kids.
you do not know that, and if you look real close they do have color to them. And Michael Jackson’s father is talentless and I think Prince Michael could develop talent just like his father.
how come they don’t look african american at all??? i’m so confused!
because they aren’t.
I don’t know if we will ever know for a fact if the children were created by his sperm (regardless of what the nut job Debbie Rowe says) but there are children in this world that have a white parent & a black parent, & the child looks completly white or vise versa. Genetics are crazy. They can pick up traits from centuries ago. There are even parents that are both black and the kids look almost white. I must say that the girl’s hair looks like it could be mixed hair.
SHUT UP YOU COMPLETE ASSHOLE!!! REALLY DON’T BE A DOUCHE-BAG ALL YOUR RETARDED LIFE!
You should probably see a therapist and get to the bottom of your anger issues.
Kate- Are you jealous because you don’t have an education that taught you anything about DNA or genetics? I mean, they teach that in high school, you don’t even have to get higher education. You’re the one that looks like the retard, you can’t even leave an intelligent comment.
Kate your retarded. I have a friend who is pure white and her husband is pure black. He daughter has a light brown color and the boy is as white as can be. Get genetics, it does happen!!!! Think before you speak, cuz you know nothing. Well spoken southern sweety. And shame on you Kate. Kate you are a very angry person. Leave these kids alone and let them morn “THEIR DADDY” cuz thats what he was!!!
Wow your an angry one! These kids are georgeous and all you should be doing is praying that they are raised by loving people now that “their daddy” is gone. You are sick and mean!
These beautiful children don’t need to hear things like their daddy wasnt really their daddy….because he was in everyway!
Guess you don’t believe adopted parents or step parents are really mommies & daddies either, huh? You are very uneducated about parenting
Yeah. Good idea to send the children to a man who was abusive to their kids. SWEET!
People don’t usually parent their grandchildren the way they did their actual children. Of course, Joe Jackson was using a memorial tribute to his dead son to promote his new label, so he probably would be the same…
FUCK YOU! THERAPIST AS IN “THE RAPIST MICHEAL JACKSON.” I HOPE SOME PERVERT RAPES ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN {PLEASE GIVE IT AN UGLY NAME LIKE YOURS THAT NO ONE HIRES!} HE TOUCHED MORE THAN SOULS DICK-HEAD!
Seriously. Get some help.
Kate, I guess they let you out of your straight jacket long enough to type some comments.
Exactly! So which is worse? Being with a ‘mother’ who knows nothing about you, or a grandmother who does, but lives with a man who is abusive?
My vote is for the nanny.
What makes you think that they are so close to their grandmother? It seems like they’ve been living overseas for most of their lives. I can’t recall seeing a single photo of Michael Jackson with his family since he was a young man.
Debbie Rowe has said she does NOT want the children. It
was all over the news this past week-end.
Joe Jackson’s appearance on the red carpet last night was beyond disgusting.
Now, the news says that the interview quoted before was a fake

Hopefully these kids are given some input as to where they go and hopefully it is in line with what their father left in his will. It seems like his family was what drove him over the edge. He was abused by them and became financially responsible for them when he was a pre-teen and it never stopped. The kids will likely experience the same pressure from them if they end up with millions. From the outside, it doesn’t look like anyone in his family or circle of friends is fit to care for them. I am looking forward to hearing what his will says. So sad.
Hey Beet,
The man (r.i.p. jacko) has given his best to keep his children away from the media/press. Is it any of (y)our business to discuss whose children they are? Don’t you think the court and the family (incl. debbie) should handle their case themselves?
Why do you disrespect the man by putting all major media attention to his children? Do you think this is OUR case which will be judged about or we can do anything about the case which the family can’t?
Sure, we all do care about Michael Jackson’s death because he has touched our souls through his music. But we definately don’t care about all the stuff on his children as long as their in good hands and because it was his strongest wish to be like that.
MJ literary didn’t have a private life. He could only stay at his home, at friends homes or at concerts. Although he most likely would’ve loved to go hang out with friends, go to a library, a music store, the grocery or simply out to the streets, he couldn’t. He had to stay at home when his friends went out. The other day i was reading an article written by a friend of MJ and especially the part he talks about MJ not being able to participate in his friends adventures touched me to tears.
The link:
MJ wanted his kids to live a free life off the chains unlike his life was. He wanted to give them the free choice of what they wanna do. And in my opinion that was such a big wish of his because the press put him in depressions which no man or woman wanna be in, trust me. I think it is them who destroyed this man a couple years ago.
This is directed to all bloggers/journalists.
First of all, he dangled his frickin’ baby from a balcony for the amusement of his fans. Is that really the best way to keep his kids away from media attention? Or even keep them alive?
Second, if anything was responsible for his depression, it was his fucked up childhood, not gossip bloggers.

Um alz, in the text i was saying the press gave him the depression.
Anyways, my comment was directed towards the author(s) of this post (blog). I hope they’ll remarque the disrespectful attribute of putting MJ’s children into media’s/people’s focus and taking away their well-deserved privacy by that.
I know what you were saying about the press. I’m saying you’re wrong. I’m saying his fucked up childhood gave him depression. It clearly wasn’t easy for him to be famous. But he was fucked up way before that.
He went to a lot of trouble to keep his kids’ faces out of the media. But he did dangle an effin’ baby from a balcony. To entertain his fans.
The kids are going to be a topic of conversation right now because everybody’s curious about what’s going to happen to them.
I wonder if any of the Jackson family members actually call the little one, “Blanket.”
Well they all have very similar names, they definitely need nicknames.
How much did MJ hate himself and his race to PAY for the THREE WHITE CHILDREN??? Seriously, blonde hair and blue eyes and the stupid BITCH believe it was MJ sperm??? You are dumber than a box of hair! What kind of hedious HOE would produce children for a PERVERT??? FUCK HIM…world is short one sick fuck….yeah!
I thank GOD “THE BABY RAPIST” is dead…too bad someone father didn’t set this “planet of the apes look-a-like” on fire years ago. I hope MJ BURNS IN HELL for “THE RAPISTS” that he WAS…
If you are going to write such scathing comments, at least check your spelling and your grammar next time. It never fails, judgemental idiots like you are always illiterate.
Kate U are a complete disgrace, were U there when he raped children? He was not even convicted, who are u to judge. Please have a little respect for the dead. And stop talking rubbish about what U dont know. Just keep quiet if U dont know what to say.
The eldest is a cutie and I think the nanny should get custody. I mean she’s been there praticaly their whole lives hasn’t she? and the mother hasn’t been in their lives at all. Those poor kids.
ok, i feel stupid. I didn’t read it properly, i thought it meant THEIR mother, that…debbie women. At least they get to stay with their grandma, but didn’t joe admit to abusing Michael? prehaps not the best person for children to be around…
The two oldest kids look like twins. When I saw a pic of them facing foward, I couldn’t see any differences in their faces. At all.
I agree, he is a cutie. I think the nanny should be living with the grandmother to help raise these beautiful children! That Debbie Rowe, stay the hell away from these gorgeous kids!!!
And leave “their Daddy” alone, cuz he was their daddy…you don’t want these poor children hearing such rude and nasty about their father!
Wow Kate you make me wonder about your parent’s and your childhood.
The little one kind of looks like MJ to me…
I’ve never actually seen these kids but they’re really adorable.
Those kids are so beautiful! I’ve never seen them without stupid lone ranger masks before. The little one DOES look like MJ, weird. I just hope they can come out of this shitstorm unscathed.. sounds like the Jacksons are just an odd bunch all around and I don’t have a whole lot of faith in Rowe either. As far as the nanny… that’s nice and all but you kind of need a family.
They are beautiful children and people need to stop being so mean, it will crush these kids when they read and hear things like some of you people are writing. Think about these poor children before you open your mouths about “their daddy”. He was never covicted of ANYTHING, except having poor judgement at times. I know everyone uses poor judgement. I feel so sorry for these kids because they will someday be exposed to such filth about “their daddy”. Keep your cruel opinions to yourself!!!
I pray for those gorgeous and well raised children!
