Michael Jackson estate expresses concern for singer's kids
Executors say they're doing everything they can to protect the late pop star's three children
www.cbsnews.comHere’s a quick update on the situation regarding Michael Jackson’s children.
- Current context: Michael Jackson’s three children—Prince Michael Jackson Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, and Prince Michael “Bigi” Jackson—have largely maintained private lives in the eyes of the public over the past several years, with occasional media coverage centering on their paths after their father’s death. Public discussions tend to focus on their personal development, careers, and advocacy work rather than ongoing custody or guardianship disputes, which were part of earlier coverage but are not current headlines.[3][5][7]
- Notable recent themes: Paris and Prince have engaged in artistic and philanthropic pursuits, with Paris pursuing fashion and acting projects and Prince pursuing education and independent ventures, while Bigi has kept a lower public profile but remains a public figure due to his family name.[5][7]
- Public updates vs. privacy: In 2025–2026, coverage has emphasized their efforts to live more private lives while honoring their father’s legacy, rather than reporting about new legal battles or custody issues, which aligns with their ongoing shift toward personal autonomy.[7][5]
