Rowe, Alleged Bio-Mom Weigh Jackson Custody Bids

Rowe's relationship with children has been sporadic since 1999

Share

(Newser) – The battle for Michael Jackson’s three children is heating up: Ex-wife Debbie Rowe is considering a custody bid, and another alleged ex-wife has come out of the woodwork. Rowe, who gave birth to the two oldest, has been in and out of their lives since 1999, and once said if Jackson died she would not want the children back, adding, “I am sure he has a wonderful person in mind to take care of them,” reports the Los Angeles Times.

However, Rowe also said that she would “never consent to such a thing” when reports surfaced a few years ago that Michael’s mother, Katherine, might adopt the children. Complicating the issue further is Nona Paris Lola Jackson, who claims to be the biological mother of all three children and is demanding custody—and Jackson’s entire estate, E! reports. Her hearing is set for August 19.

These are his children. I had the children for him. I did it for him to become a father, not for me to become a mother. You earn the title 'parent.' I have done absolutely nothing to earn that title. - Debbie Rowe, in 2001

Not that I don't love them. I do. I think they are adorable. They're his kids. They're his kids. They are not my kids. - Debbie Rowe, in 2001
