Reflections on Michael Jackson
After Michael Jackson passed away in 2009 at age 50, he left his children, Prince Jackson, Paris Jackson, and Bigi Jackson, 24, in Katherine’s care. In a 2010 Dateline interview, she opened up about their bond. Katherine said, “Not a day goes by that I don’t think about my son. It really has been hard. But with friends, loved ones, and family around me, I’m doing okay, especially with prayer.” Katherine Jackson has stepped back from the spotlight in recent years, letting her legacy speak through her family.
