We look at Michael Jackson’s biggest legacy – his children Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson.
The late King of Pop’s three kids Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson have grown into incredible young adults.
From the minute they were born, the star’s children were thrust into the spotlight but a determined Michael ensured their identities weren’t unveiled until his untimely passing.
Despite the tragic loss of their famous father in 2009, Prince, 20, Paris, 19, and Blanket, 15, have flourished into wonderful young adults who are committed to keeping their father’s legacy alive.
The King of Pop’s former body guard Yannick Allain revealed what it was like seeing Michael become a doting dad, “I gave him a hug to congratulate him and all I could remember noticing was the look on Michael’s face. The look of absolute pride. I had never seen him looking calm and yet so confident and happy without saying a word. At that moment I think I felt that kinship of manhood, that only comes from becoming a father. A wonderful moment.”

Before their careers catapulted them into the spotlight, Michael and Janet Jackson were a close brother/sister duo. And it is this bond he instilled in his own children.
