Michael Jackson’s Children Go Back to Their Roots

As soon as we heard the news of Michael Jackson’s death, the first thing we wondered was what would happen to the children? Would they go back with their mothers’ or would they be raised by the Jackson family. Well, looks like the Jackson clan is stepping up and taking them in. Interesting. They’re going to go from Never Never Land to Big Mama’s House

After Michael Jackson’s sudden passing, the singer’s three children “are doing fine,” says Brian Oxman, the Jackson family attorney for 20 years.

“They are in the care of a nanny,” he tells Usmagazine.com, adding that they’re staying with their grandmother, Katherine. “Ms. Jackson will care for them and I’m sure there will be all kinds of discussions that will take place about the kids.”

The children – Blanket, 7, Paris, 11, and Prince Michael, 12 – are “just beautiful,” Oxman says. “They’re well-trained, well educated and extraordinarily talented. They get to play with their cousins and their nieces and their nephews. They are just smarter than smart can be.”

(Paris and Prince Michael were born through artificial insemination when Jackson was briefly wed to Debbie Rowe. Prince Michael Jackson II’s mother’s identity was never released.)

Oxmon tells Us Jackson family members are still struggling to cope with the shocking loss.

“They are stunned,” Oxman tells Us. “They are barely even able to speak about it.”

Oxman was with the family at the hospital (mother Katherine, brothers Randy and Jermaine, and sister LaToya, arrived separately at the hospital for vigil).

“They were silent, they were crying, they weren’t really able to say anything,” he says. “They just were stunned by this whole experience.”

Adds Oxman, “I know that they are now all together.”

That’s going to be one hell of a transition. Can’t wait to see what these children are going to be like in 20 years.

    They’ll be fine. Make sure to keep them in our prayers.

  • JB 6 more months until Christmas

    In sadnees yall still wanna get a joke in. At least they have family that wants them

  • Lush_Us_Lipps

    Maybe this “transition” will be for the best. Although I love Mike…but now they’ll probably have a chance to live a semi-normal life. God Bless them all.

    God bless his family…

    But does ANYONE think those kids look like they could be his? This is my first time seeing them uncovere.

  • dayg715

    i’m not worried about those kids at all. The Jackson motto is “Family First”. plus, surely Mike made specific instructions for their care as soon as they were born. but my heart breaks for them. children always fell in love with Michael instantly, so I know those kids adored their father. my heart goes out to The Jackson.

  • honey

    Ign’ant a$$ writers…fall back!

  • Binary Star

    They’re gonna milk those kids to the bone.

  • Real Nicca

    Some things I read on this site makes me want to throw up how can you make a joke when someone had died let alone someone as important to the African American community as MICHAEL JACKSON your wrong and will burn in hell…

  • Stella

    Just keep them away from Uncle Jermaine the freak who married his brother’s wife. Jermaine will probably try to marry Paris when she hits 18. I hope Janet and Debbie (kids mom) share custody.

  • Moreaces…Missing Mike

    God Bless those children, Ms. Jackson is an older lady with illness of her own, I dont know if health/age wise she needs that responsibility, And God bless their souls, but the Jackson’s are not your normal everyday folks, I would say No to LaToya, for sure, Maybe Janet could step in and raise the kids. I wish them the best at any rate.

  • Candy Barr

    I am sure those white children will be O.K. in the long run. Even Debbie Rowe admitted the children were not his, obviously, look at how white they are! They look like him post-op, not pre-op.

    ================
    Im not sure what was behind Mike’s choice to shield his childrens as strongly as he did, the mask and all, It was just strange how he sheltered them, It was like some flowers in the attic ish.. I will have them in my prayers..

  • bococalady

    why it gotta be BIG MOMMA’S HOUSE?

  • -

    no transition, they’ve always loved grandma and have been playing with the cousins and family – they know them and love them so it won’t be anything new

  • Tropical English

    Debbie Rowe signed away any and all parental rights as soon as the children were born. Even made special stipulation that in the event of his death, she had no claim to them.

    No custody, or cash, for her.

  • grant

    black folks raising white kids, like a throwback to mammy days….

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    It only makes sense that a man who spent a fortune over many years altering his physical appearance would not want kids who reminded him of his pre-op appearance. It’s kinda sick…but Mike had a sick life. RIP.

    I hope the kids will have a chance to have a “normal” life.

    =====================
    She signed them over not once but twice, his last trail, she “tried” to get them back, but after the trail, she signed over her rights once again, “with a cash settlement to boot” no chance in hell she will get them back

  • Tee

    Maybe being with their gma Katherine .. they have a chance at having a normal life ..

    Uhhh, you’re wrong. She never signed over her parental rights…In fact, the Judge had to reverse his original order, due to Child’s Services never issued an order declaring Ms. Rowe as an “UNFIT MOTHER” during her first petition to regain custody of her children…Trust, in a few days, don’t be surprised if those first two kids are returned to her + the sizable child support payments that will be issued via Michael’s Estate.

  • Tee

    TMZ: Here’s what happened. We spoke with Lance Spiegel, the lawyer who repped Jackson at the time. Spiegel says under the law, the Department of Children and Family Services must conduct a parental fitness investigation before parental rights are terminated and that didn’t happen with Rowe. So Rowe has never given up any of her parental rights. As a result, under California law, Rowe is now presumed to be the person who will get custody. The only way Rowe can be denied custody is if a court determines it would be “detrimental to the children.”

  • L

    DOUBT IT

  • This I Know

    Those are NOT his kids. These are too white to even be biracial, unless Michael was bleaching them too. The Jackson family needs to do a DNA test to make sure they are Michael’s before they try to cash in on his money.

  • Witchie Poo – formerly “me (the original)®”

    I think the better question here is…why didn’t he have children of his own? It’s not like he “adopted” or anything, it’s like he had custom made babies. SMH.

  • Witchie Poo – formerly “me (the original)®”

    And is one of them really named “Blanket” ?

  • wifey06

    as tacky as tmz are……..

    tmz be on point why are we coming to these sites for second hand news again?

  • Mrsl.boos a.k.a kaiistar

    I hope the anonymous BABY MAMA doesnt reappear and try to cash in on LITTLE BLANKET!!! THE KIDS ARE PROBABLY TRAMATIZED ENOUGH THEY’VE LOST THEIR FATHER I CAN’T IMAGINE IF THEY HAD TO BE SEPERATED!

  • Mrsl.boose a.k.a kaiistar

    BLANKET IS HIS NICKNAME HE ALSO IS A PRICE MICHAEL

  • Moreaces.. Missing Mike

    Witchie Poo – formerly “me (the original)®”

    And is one of them really named “Blanket” ?

    ==============
    Just a nickname, He has two (2) sons, named Prince Michael, and Prince Michael II

  • Shay

    Debbie legally has no claim to the kids. Ethically she shouldn’t be able to get the kids because she signed them over twice. I do wonder who MJ would want them to go to. I doubt he would want Joe to get them. One thing I’m wondering about though is that Joe lives in Las Vegas and Katherine still lives in their Encino, CA home.

  • leave-it-be

    =================A HELLLLLLLLLLLLLL NAHHHHHHHHHHH!!! NOT TO BIG MAMA’S HOUSE!!! HOW SHE GONA HELP HER GRAND KIDS WHEN SHE COULDNT HELP HER KIDS??? THEY ALL ARE EFFED UP!!!! THEY ALL CLAIM ABUSE BY THEIR FATHER WHILE MAMA STOOD BY AND LET IT HAPPEN!!!! RESPECTFUL AS THEY ARE AND NEVER MENTIONED HER AS BEING PART BLAME I KNOW DEEP DOWN THEY ASK WHY DIDNT MAMA LEAVE HIM?????? MIKE STAYED AWAY FROM THEM BECAUSE OF HIS BAD CHILDHOOD AND I SINCERELY HOPE THAT IF HE WAS IN FAILING HEALTH HE STILL HAD THE GOOD SENSE TO FIND SUITABLE CARE TAKERS FOR HIS KIDS!!!!! GIVE THEM BACK TO THEIR BIOLOGICAL MOTHERS BUT NOT TO ANY OF THEM BROKE JACKSON FAMILY MEMBERS!!!! JANET’S COOL BUT SHE GOT ISSUES TOO. SHE DISOWNED HER OWN DAUGHTER SO THAT THOUGHT IS GONE TOO!!!! THEY WANA TAKE THE KIDS SO THEY CAN TAKE WHAT FUNDS MIKE GOT LEFT AND THEY KNOW HIS LEGACY IS NOW GONA BRING IN TONS OF $$$$$$ AND THAT’S ALL THEY WANT!!! BUNCH OF BROKE BUMS ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ:(

  • leave-it-be

    stop knocking debbie rowe!!!!! she only did what michael wanted and paid her to do!!!! he wanted her to bear his kids but we can only believe this was done without any physical contact!!!! so it’s not like she had babies and left them on someone’s door step!!!! mike had money this is all he wanted from her but i believe she sees her kids and loves them dearlY!!!! if she didnt and was vindictive person she woulda aired all michaels’ dirty laundry and this woman has never done anything to hurt or deceieve him!!!

  • 5star

    MY PRAYER ARE WITH THE JACKSON FAMILY AND HIS KIDS!!!!!

    I DO PRAY THAT THEY GET TO KNOW THEIR MOTHER DEBBIE ROWE……BUT I PRAY THAT SHE DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR THE KIDS…..

  • Pretty MissM

    Well, since we’re pretending like someone is going to ask any of us our opinion, I think they should all go to Rebie (Sp?). She is without a doubt the most “suitable” of all of them. Her kids seem happy and well-adjusted. And, it doesn’t seem like she’s ever been involved in anything scandalous.

  • YorkieLover

    OK…Apparently these kids have nowhere to go,no one to trust,and I’m scared for them. Debbie Rowe,their mother,basically didn’t want them at first,sooo I doubt if she has that inate motherly love for them. And the Jacksons,are you kidding me!! They f*cked up there own kids. Why would anyone trust them with their grandkids?!?! I don’t trust that any child and wife abuser,cheater,weirdo father will change. Sorry. And the mother set through the relationship and dealt with it…letting me know she’s very weak and/or ignorant for letting her children go through that(she did let her religion rule her choices)…so when an uncle or grandfather Joe starts messing with the kids,saying things he shouldn’t say,she probably won’t step in!!

  • uhbeautifulmind

    I still don’t think these are his kids. They might be legally but these kids don’t even look a fourth black, let alone half.

  • FACINGREALITY

    One thing that losing both Farrah and Michael on the same day should teach us is the fact that ‘it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white’ death will visit.

    Second, being a parent is not about biology. Madonna and Angelina have children that do not belong to them through DNA but are no less important than those they gave birth to, so get over the fact that these children don’t look like Michael – he was their FATHER in every sense of the word.

    Third, Rowe may be the mother of 2 of Michael’s children but he had 3 and any judge in his/her right mind will ensure that these children remain together. To separate them would be adding insult to injury. Especially since Rowe sold her children not once but twice. The best scenario would be to keep the Nanny (who has been a constant in their lives since birth as the guardian) with assistance from Katherine, Rebbie and Janet. Any other Jackson asking for custody would be suspect as a surrogate because it is common knowledge that they are suffering financially, as well as the fact that Michael did not have a true relationship but with the 3 mentioned.

  • Nadege

    to octavia,
    No we shouldn’t step on egg shells but for Christ’s sake the man JUST passed!!!!! Can we live the evil jokes until he’s AT LEAST burried!!! DAMNNNNN!

  • Carla

    I believe that Debbie is going to return for her kids. And Katerine doen’t strike me as the big momma type.

  • Lisa

    @They are “well-trained”

    They are not dogs! And I hope someone has the sense to enroll these kids in therapy.

  • http://roadrunner phyllis

    My heartfelt sympathy goes to the Jackson family and Katherine is too old to be raising kids and she did not protect her own.However it should be clear to everyone now as to why he hid those childrens face, Because they were white children. MIcheal why did you have so much self hatred for being a Black man?
    SO SAD

  • Shelly

    This kids aren’t his biologically..big deal..now they are orphans, for gawds sake leave them alone. Unless any of you lost a parent at any age, you have no idea how lost they are feeling right now. Micheal was the only parent they knew..he seem to be excellent father.
    I know plenty of biological parents who need to have their mother/father license revoked…

  • Darren

    Well maybe these children can be returned to their real parents. They obviously weren’t Michael’s biological kids.

  • http://www.bossip.com Ms.Dany~Gyrl

    My question is are these kids biologically his, because to be REAL they don’t look like they got a spit of black in them! I mean there his, because he took care of them, but I don’t think those are his biological kids Sorry thats my opinion!
