When\u00a0Michael Jackson<\/strong> <\/a>passed away in June 2009 at age 50, his death shocked the world. At the time of his passing, his three children were still all very young. Michael\u2019s only daughter Paris<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>who was 11 when he died, gave a heartbreaking eulogy at the \u201cBillie Jean\u201d singer\u2019s memorial service. \u201cEver since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine\u2026 I just wanted to say I love him so much,\u201d she said, via\u00a0The Guardian<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now, Michael\u2019s three kids are all grown up! He had two sons:\u00a0\u201cPrince\u201d Michael<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and Prince Michael Jackson II<\/a><\/strong>. Michael\u2019s daughter Paris has also followed in her father\u2019s footsteps and pursued a career in music of her own. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about Michael Jackson\u2019s kids.<\/p>\n

Michael\u2019s oldest son was born in February 1997 to the singer and his ex-wife, Debbie Rowe<\/strong>, 62, he was named Michael Joseph Jackson, but quickly gained the nickname \u201cPrince.\u201d The Bad<\/em> singer\u2019s eldest child explained in an interview with Fox Soul<\/a> that his father\u2019s advice<\/a> still sticks with him. \u201cMy father would say something along the lines of, \u2018the minute you stop learning is the minute that you\u2019re going to start dying,’\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The King of Pop\u2019s son also revealed that throughout his life he\u2019s alternated as whether he goes by Prince or Michael, Prince has said that he\u2019s proud to share his name<\/a> with his late-father. \u201cI don\u2019t want to say there\u2019s a\u00a0pressure or a weight, because that\u2019s a negative connotation. But, there is this legacy that my father worked very hard to build and maintain,\u201d he said in a 2020 interview with the talk show\u00a0This Morning.<\/em><\/p>\n

While all of Michael\u2019s children shied from the spotlight in the years immediately following his death, Paris has become a little more public in recent years. He graduated from Los Angeles\u2019 Loyola Marymount University in 2019 with a degree in business administration. Since graduating, Prince has become a bit of a philanthropist and spends a lot of time working with charities. In 2019, he was working on his own charity Heal Los Angeles, an insider told\u00a0HollywoodLife<\/strong> at the time. Prince is also active on Instagram and gives fans a glimpse into his interests and personal life. He shows that he loves outdoor activities like motorcycle riding<\/a>. He also occasionally shares photos with his girlfriend\u00a0Molly Schirmang<\/strong>, who he\u2019s been dating for four years<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Michael\u2019s only daughter and his second child with his ex Debbie was born in April 1998. Like her older brother, Paris has been open about the lasting impact that her father has had on her life. She told\u00a0Naomi Campbell<\/strong> in an interview that the \u201cMan in the Mirror\u201d popstar made sure his kids had an understanding of both the good and bad things<\/a> in the world. \u201cMy dad was really good about making sure we were cultured, making sure we were educated, and not just showing us like the glitz and glam, like hotel hopping, five-star places. It was also like, we saw everything. We saw third world countries. We saw every part of the spectrum,\u201d she said in the March interview.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Paris has become a bit of a socialite, rubbing elbows<\/a> with plenty of huge stars<\/a> like\u00a0<\/a>Emile Hirsch<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Paris Hilton<\/strong><\/a>. Fans were also enthralled at the rise and fall of her two-year relationship<\/a> with\u00a0Gabriel Glenn.\u00a0<\/strong>While Paris felt like the breakup was her \u201cdeepest heartbreak,\u201d<\/a> as she told\u00a0Willow Smith\u00a0<\/strong>in an episode of\u00a0Red Table Talk<\/em>, it did inspire her for her debut solo album<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Like her father, Paris has pursued a career in music, but her sound is incredibly different from her late-dad\u2019s iconic sound. While MJ was the King of Pop and infused elements of R&B and rock into his music, Paris has\u00a0 a more subdued approach. Her debut solo album Wilted<\/em> came out in November 2020, and it\u2019s more of a folk and alternative affair than her dad\u2019s music. While it may not sound familiar to Michael\u2019s biggest fans, he would definitely be proud of his little girl, as she revealed in a July 2020 interview<\/a> that her dad always encouraged her to do what she wanted.<\/p>\n

On Dec. 6, Paris announced her engagement to her boyfriend, Justin Long<\/strong>, with a heartfelt birthday message. \u201chappy birthday my sweet blue,\u201d she wrote in the caption of the Instagram<\/a>\u00a0post. \u201cdoing life with you these last years has been an indescribable whirlwind and i couldn\u2019t dream of anyone more perfect for me to do it all with. thank you for letting me be yours. i love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0E! News<\/em>, the couple started dating in 2022.<\/p>\n

Michael\u2019s youngest son Prince Michael Jackson II was born to an unknown surrogate in February 2002. As a child, the popstar\u2019s son gained notoriety in part because of his unique nickname Blanket<\/strong>, but in more recent years, he\u2019s gone by his preferred nickname Bigi<\/strong>. Unlike his older siblings, Blanket has mostly stayed out of the spotlight, but he\u2019s occasionally seen out and about<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even though he may prefer to stay private and low-key, Blanket did make a public appearance on the first episode of a YouTube movie review show on his older brother\u2019s channel in 2019. The two were discussing\u00a0Avengers: Endgame\u00a0<\/em>along with their cousin\u00a0Taj Jackson<\/strong>. Even though the youngest Jackson might keep a low-profile, he\u2019s clearly very close with his big brother. He went to Prince\u2019s graduation in 2019<\/a>, and a source close to Jackson told\u00a0HollywoodLife<\/strong> in 2019 that Prince was helping his brother embrace public life a bit more. \u201cPrince has really taken his brother under his wing and is his main role model,\u201d the insider said \u201cPrince really protects his brother as they have a real close bond. They go through life as a team.\u201d<\/p>\n
