14 DAY TRIAL // The King of Pop Michael Jackson died in 2009, but to this day there still are “mysteries” that, some feel, require solving. One of them would be the paternity of his 3 children, Prince, Paris and Blanket, who, according to reports, were not his.
If you ask 18-year-old Prince, the answer will not please conspiracy theories who like to throw about a handful of names when talking about the “real” dad, i.e. sperm donor: Michael is his father and nothing will ever change that. pa
Prince Jackson shuts hater down, acknowledges rumors
Prince will be soon seen on Lifetime’s new reality show, “The Jacksons: Next Generation,” a trailer for which you can find below. The series revolves around Tito Jackson’s sons TJ, Taj and Taryll and their band 3T, as they strive to leave their own mark on the world while continuing the Jackson legacy.
Rumor has it that Prince won’t be a series regular, making only occasional appearances. Even so, he’s been promoting the show on his social media, which is probably how he came across a tweet telling him to stop putting on a front (by pretending he’s a Jackson) and just admit already that he was a Rowe-Klein.
His response has already earned him warm praise online: “‘The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb’... I was raised by my dad with my brother and sister.”
In other words, Michael is the only father he knew, and Paris and Blanket are his brothers, and absolutely nothing in this world can change that.
Who is Klein?
In case you’re wondering why Prince would be “a Rowe-Klein” and not a Jackson, we should note that Dr. Arnold W. Klein was a dermatologist who treated the star for years and who claimed to have forged a personal relationship with him.
Klein too came under fire after Jackson’s death by accidental overdose in 2009, on the grounds that he did nothing to help him but only encouraged his addiction because it was making him rich.
He is one of the men whose name is thrown around in conversation when it comes to the children’s paternity, alongside that of Macaulay Culkin (yes, the “Home Alone” actor) and former actor Mark Lester.
One report claims the Klein was the one to impregnate Michael’s wife Debbie Rowe the first time, which would mean that Prince is his son.
But even that wouldn’t make him Prince’s father, he says with this tweet. This is the first time that any of the Jackson children acknowledge the never-ending reports that they were not Michael’s biological offspring.
