Ex-wife uses kids to get to Michael Jacksons money
By SAMPURNThursday, July 23, 2009
Michael Jackson is dead; what he has left behind is a huge fortune and three kids. Now that Jackson is no-more; the power game to get a piece of his empire has kicked off and the pawns are his kids.
As the 500 million dollar empire of King of Pop lies mainly with his underage kids, the battle for their custody is sure to ensue. The latest we hear is Jackson’s ex-wife Debbie Rowe; who is the biological mother of his two children Prince Michael I, 12, and Paris Katherine, 11; has decided to fight the custody battle for the kids.
Debbie will be contesting Jackson’s mother Katherine Jackson for the custody of her two children, currently Katherine is the temporary guardian till the court decides otherwise on July 13.
But it seems that it would be hard for Debbie Rowe to convince the Judge as back in 2003, Debbie confessed in a magazine she ‘never’ wanted to be a mother.
Rowe whose babies were born through artificial insemination said in an interview, "Parenting is an art; you earn the title," Rowe, who is now 50, added, "Because you give birth and impregnate someone does not automatically give you the title of mother or father – you earn the title.”
Debbie went on, "My kids don’t call me mom because I don’t want them to. They are Michael’s children. It’s not that they’re not my children, but I had them because I wanted him to be a father."
"I didn’t do it to be a mother. Like I said, you earn the title.”
Debbie Rowe and Jackson divorced in 1999 after three years of marriage and she gave up her parental rights in exchange of a bulging bank account.
Now that Michael is dead leaving millions in the bank for his kids, Debbie will sure regret that interview as it leaves a big question on her parenting skills.
