As long as I can remember my dad had repeatedly warned me of certain people and their ways. Although I am happy my grandma was returned, after speaking with her I realized how misguided and how badly she was lied to. I’m really angry and hurt. The following image is of a group chat I had started to several family members. This group text message I had initially sent was replied to but they didn’t know that I could see the responses. For this whole time, we were denied contact to our grandmother. “If you continue with your lies I will continue with the truth”

-Michael Jackson Jr.



Notice it's "Auntie Rebbie"... then "Janet Jackson". That says volume...

(ETA: in Prince's snapshot of the Group MMS)

no, I believe you are wrong, they are both named Prince Michael, that is why the little one has the nickname.


but anyway, who cares. they are of no importance to me what so ever.

Michael's oldest son is named Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. I read somewhere that since Michael Jackson was considered the King of Pop, he called his eldest son by the nickname of Prince, because every King needs a Prince. At this point, Blanket had not been born. But when Blanket was born several years later, the name Prince was formally given to him. It is a family name. He later received the nickname Blanket.

I've read that the family calls the eldest Michael and the youngest Prince. So it may be the media and the public who consistently calls him Blanket.

That is my understanding.

TMZ is reporting that Katherine has had a change of heart and now wants to share guardianship of MJ's kids with TJ. PPB are all in agreement. Sounds like the best outcome. Katherine won't be so overwhelmed and TJ has already been sharing the responsibilities. And if anything happens to Katherine, TJ would probably get full guardianship.

Perhaps Katherine and family members have realized that if TJ is given sole guardianship, she/they will lose their meal ticket. If Katherine shares, then she gets to keep the allowance. Just sayin'.

Prince is a family name, Katherine's father and grandfather were both called Prince so I think that is part of the reason why MJ chose it. The other names of Michael's children are all family names as well (Michael, Katherine, Joseph) Paris is the only exception.

Some people call Michael's oldest child Prince, some call him Michael and some call him Prince Michael. Some fans call him Junior

No, I am certain that I'm correct. Michael jr, Paris and Prince are their legal names Look at the way Prince signed his Twitter statement, it says Michael Jackson jr. Surely Prince knows his own name?

That's probably the best solution for everyone. So are TJ and his wife and kids moving in with them?

It will be interesting to see what happens when the kids are old enough to start getting the money directly. Things will start getting real crazy then.

They're getting the money in incremental steps, they won't have full access to it until they are in their 30s I believe. Hopefully the family will be too old to care about money at that point but if Joe is anything to go by....
