Was Katherine Jackson Taken Hostage by Her Children?
According to CNN, over the past few days, Janet and Rebbie Jackson, in response to Paris, who wanted to talk to Katherine Jackson, told her that she cannot speak with her grandmother.
As reported by CNN’s correspondent, Paris asked them to allow her to speak with Katherine so she could confirm her well-being. Paris has been very worried about her grandmother over the past week. In the three years since her father’s death, Katherine has been the closest person to Paris, and now she can’t even talk to her—which has made the King of Pop’s only daughter extremely upset and angry.
After a week of trying to reach her grandmother and hearing from her aunts that she is not allowed to speak with Katherine, her only legal guardian, Paris decided to make the matter public. Now Katherine’s disappearance is the latest in a series of controversial letters from several Jacksons (Janet, Rebbie, Tito, Randy, and Jermaine) to the Michael Jackson estate, followed by Paris’s harsh reaction and then Katherine’s response—this is the fourth shock of the week in the Jackson family.
The claim that Katherine Jackson is missing, made by Michael’s children, Trent Jackson, and Katherine’s lawyer, has been officially delivered to the police, and the case has now been referred to a special unit for missing persons or homicides.
Paris has become a strong, independent woman and has no hesitation in expressing her beliefs and viewpoints in every area. In recent events, she has practically stepped in as the spokesperson for her family. Seven hours have passed since she announced Katherine’s disappearance on Twitter, and during this time the news has spread at lightning speed across the internet and other media, with her tweets being used in online news and on television.
According to Ellen DeGeneres from CNN, who spoke with various people inside the family about the recent controversies, Katherine Jackson left the house a week ago for New Mexico, but never went there. According to her, Janet, Rebbie, and Randy Jackson took Katherine with them on vacation. Since then, Michael’s children, Katherine’s lawyer, and her advisor Trent—whom the Jacksons accuse of exerting influence over Katherine—have received no news about her. Ellen DeGeneres also, quoting everyone in the Jackson family she spoke with, said that Katherine has not suffered a brain attack despite what the five children claim. Searches for her continue.
Katherine, 82, is the legal guardian of Michael’s children. During her lifetime, she received a share of Michael’s wealth. But Michael’s only permanent heirs are his three children, aged 15, 14, and 10, who, in Katherine’s absence, live in the Calabasas home with their nanny. According to the will, after Katherine, the children’s guardianship is given to Diana Ross, Michael’s longtime friend and one of the prominent artists of Motown. In Michael’s will, prepared in 2002 in New York, no names of his sisters, brothers, or father are mentioned—not in financial matters, not professionally, and not regarding the guardianship of any of his children.
Katherine Jackson previously expressed her support for the Michael Jackson estate trustees against her children’s claims. Some believe that certain members of the Jackson family are trying to influence Katherine in order to gain her approval to challenge the Michael Jackson estate. But even if they were to win, they are not expected to succeed in court either, because all previous attempts by the Jackson family had already failed. Three of their lawsuits against the estate were deemed legally invalid by three California Supreme Courts, and all three courts issued decisive rulings confirming the will’s validity and correctness. This will is accepted as a definitive document, and beyond that, three years have passed since its provisions were put into effect; the legal deadline to challenge the will has long since ended, meaning this dispute will not have room for a court discussion.
