In 2009, the life of a idol of millions came to an abrupt end. That year, Michael was actively preparing for a concert tour. Jackson had a lot of debts, but he planned to pay them off, as tickets for his performances were selling at an incredible speed. But the artist’s plans were not meant to come true. On June 25, Michael died from a drug overdose. He left behind three underage children.

The youngest heir of the artist was only 7 years old at the time. The boy, named Prince Michael Jackson II, had been regularly involved in scandals related to his father since birth. The renowned musician had long wanted to become a father for the third time. After divorcing his wife Debbie Rowe, Michael had no relationships for a long time. He couldn’t find a girl who could potentially become a mother for his child.

So Michael decided to turn to surrogacy. In 2002, his dream came true, and the musician became a father once again. The biological mother of Jackson’s second son is unknown. At that time, Michael already had health problems, but he was very happy about his son’s birth. When in the first months after Prince’s birth, Jackson decided to show him to fans, he almost dropped the boy. Fans were very scared of Michael’s behavior. And the boy was given the nickname “Blanket.”

After Jackson’s death, Prince’s biological mother began to take care of him. Since then, the boy has almost disappeared from public view. Before, he even went out on the street wearing a mask. However, Prince has grown up. He is now 22 years old and still avoids publicity, trying to live a normal life.

Prince does not dream of a musical career. Jackson’s youngest son knows his father’s history too well and definitely does not want to repeat it.
