Michael Jackson died in 2009 at the age of 50. He had three children: the youngest Prince Michael Jackson II, 20, Prince Jackson I, 25 and his daughter Paris Jackson, 24. Very united, as we could see during their last appearance on the occasion of a very special event, the children of the King of Pop are committed to keeping their father’s legacy alive.
And they do well in view of the bonanza they receive each year thanks to Michael Jackson. According to information from The MirrorPrince I, Prince II and Paris would receive $300 million every year. It’s a lot of dollars knowing the debts that the interpreter of “Billie Jean” had left behind him. These amounted to 400 million dollars… “The executors were able to create exceptional and unique opportunities that did not exist at the time of Michael Jackson’s death to generate substantial income and enhance his image and legacy for the benefit of beneficiaries”explained Jeryll S. Cohen, the lawyer who managed the estate, on this renewed money.
The famous property of the singer called “Neverland” also helped to replenish the coffers then it was sold for the sum of 22 million dollars to billionaire Ron Burkle in December 2020. Even if in 2015, it was estimated at 100 million dollars before undergoing several price cuts. In short, the children of Michael Jackson have no (financial) worries.
If he left them a big fortune, the singer also left behind him some dirty stories. Already in the 1990s and 2000s, Michael Jackson was at the heart of various investigations into allegations of child sexual abuse. Since his death, the testimonies have been linked, in particular in the documentary “Leaving Neverland” released in 2019. Some radio stations have even decided to boycott the singer by no longer playing his music.
