An online discussion recently revisited the longstanding rumors about the parentage of Michael Jackson’s children: Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., known as Prince, 29, Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson, 28, and Prince Michael Jackson II, also known as Bigi, 24.
Since Jackson’s passing in 2009 at the age of 50 due to a drug overdose, speculation has persisted about whether these children are biologically his. This speculation is fueled by their physical appearance, allegations involving sperm donors, and comments from those within Jackson’s circle.
Boteach, who knew Prince and Paris personally, firmly dismissed claims that Jackson was not their biological father.
He stated, “I was with Michael when Prince was three and Paris was two. I never met Blanket.”
Boteach continued, “We discussed their biological connection many times. Respectfully, Vlad, because we’re like buddies now, right?”
He added humorously, “With facial hair, the beard and all, by the end of this interview, you might sprout sidewalks that reach your butt.”
Addressing the issue seriously, he said, “Who are we to question a parent’s claim about their child? It’s an unethical and immoral observation. Do your kids resemble you? It’s unfair to say otherwise. Michael declared they’re his children. It’s just not fair.”
