Michael Jackson’s kids were famous from birth simply due to their lineage. He attempted to shield them from the public eye. He would dress them in veils and masks. These days Prince, Paris, and Bigi are all young adults and creating their own way in the world without Michael who died in June of 2009.
On March 27, 2024, the three made a rare joint appearance at the opening night of MJ: The Musical at Prince Edward Theatre in London. The show celebrates their dad’s legacy so they wanted to be a part of it. The trio looked great.
Michael shared Prince and Paris with ex-wife Debbie Rowe. They divorced in 1999 and Michael was granted full custody of the two kids. After his death, the kids were raised by their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Bigi was born via a surrogate in 2002.
Prince is now 27 years old. He attended Loyola Marymount University and graduated in 2019 with a degree in business administration. He cofounded the charity Heal Los Angeles, which aims to help young people through self-care and education. Paris is 25 and following in her father’s musical footsteps. Bigi is 21 and likes to stay out of the limelight. He is passionate about climate change education.

Prince opened up to Good Morning Britain in 2021 about his relationship with his siblings. "We have such a close relationship, and because I'm the oldest, my father would always tell me I have to make sure the group is taken care of, and that I have to kind of be the leader and lead by example,” he stated.
He wishes they could spend more time together but understands that everyone is busy. "Sometimes life just happens to get in the way, people travel and stuff like that," he went on to say. "But any moment that I get to spend with my siblings now, especially as we're getting older and our own lives are starting to blossom and grow, every moment that I get with them, any little family dinner, any family outing, is really a special moment."
