Since the day I was born, my father has been the most extraordinary dad one could ever envision. I just want to express how deeply I love him. These heartfelt words were spoken by 11-year-old Paris Jackson during the funeral of the man who meant everything to her—her father.
Experiencing the loss of a father at such a young age is profoundly painful. For Paris and her siblings, this tragedy meant that they were now the center of public attention. Suddenly, every magazine sought to connect with Michael Jackson through them, resulting in overwhelming media scrutiny. Michael had always prioritized their privacy, but now they found themselves in the glaring spotlight.
Following his passing, the children were placed under the legal guardianship of their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Paris resided with her until she turned 19, after which she relocated to her father’s private studio at the family estate, which she converted into a dormitory-style bedroom.
Recently, Paris, who celebrated her 23rd birthday on April 3, shared insights about her father in a YouTube interview with supermodel Naomi Campbell. During the conversation, she discussed her modeling career, her upcoming album, and her childhood experiences.
