Katherine Jackson Receives Custody - Plus Michael’s Secret Child Omar
Thursday, July 30th, 2009
After weeks of speculation on who would gain the custody of pop star Michael Jackson’s three children, Paris, Prince, and Prince II (a.k.a. Blanket) the court has granted custody to Michael’s mother Katherine Jackson.
Michael Jackson’s last Will and Testament named his mother Katherine as guardian but many people wondered if the biological mother of Paris and Prince Jackson, Debbie Rowe, would begin a custody battle. Debbie Rowe did not seek custody but did receive visitation rights and plans to form a relationship with the children.
Debbie Rowe was active in Paris and Prince’s lives when they were very young but after divorcing Michael Jackson she left the Neverland Ranch and her children behind.
Rowe did not ask for any kind of monetary compensation from the Jackson family but will continue to receive the monthly settlement payments she received while Michael Jackson was alive.

Just as Michael Jackson’s three children are settling into their new home with their 79-year-old grandmother, Michael Jackson’s father announced that the recent rumors of his son having a fourth child are true.
Although there has been no DNA test done to confirm that Omar Bhatti, 25, is truly Michael Jackson’s son Michael’s father Joe seems certain that he is. According to rumors Omar Bhatti was the result of a one night stand that Jackson had with a Norwegian fan.
Omar Bhatti even sat with the Jackson clan during Michael Jackson’s recent Memorial Service, and many can’t help notice that Omar Bhatti looks much like Michael Jackson did when he was young.
For now whether Omar Bhatti is Michael Jackson’s son or not remains a mystery. Bhatti himself has stated that he is not the Jackson’s son but that the two were just close. Either way, Omar Bhatti has managed to capture world wide interest, and who knows where his new found fame will take him.
Here’s Joe Jackson talking about his son Michael’s “secret love child” in a recent interview:
