Michael Jackson's son embraces anonymity amidst family legacy
25 April 2024 19:33
Prince Michael II, known as Blanket, did not follow in his father's footsteps and stays away from show business. Unfortunately, the 22-year-old can do nothing about still being quite a "catch" for photographers who hunt for his photos. Does he resemble the owner of a fortune worth £120 million?
Less than a decade after the death of Michael Jackson, the HBO platform released the documentary "Leaving Neverland", which revealed the dark tendencies towards paedophilia of the "king of pop". It was even speculated that one of the victims of the musician's molestation could have been his son, Prince Michael, who was nicknamed Blanket.
Until reaching adulthood, "Bigi" (as his close ones now call him) remained under the guardianship of his grandmother. The identity of his mother is still unknown - it is said that he was brought into the world by an anonymous surrogate. Unlike other children of famous and beloved individuals, Blanket did not follow in his famous family's footsteps and had been avoiding the spotlight for many years, living off his fortune, estimated at $150 million.
While Blanket usually avoids industry parties, visiting only events dedicated to his late father, the American occasionally allows himself to be photographed by local photographers in his hometown of Los Angeles. On Wednesday, the 22-year-old was seen near his residence in famous Calabasas, leaving a café with a cup in his hand.
The son of the pop legend cut his long hair, which now reaches his jaw. He was dressed in simple shorts and a T-shirt with Batman on it and wore unremarkable sneakers. Just as if he had no intention of drawing attention to himself. After all, as we know, he does not like to show himself publicly.
