The youngest Jackson, Bigi, previously nicknamed 'Blanket', was born in 2002.

Bigi was infamously dangled over the balcony of a Berlin hotel room shortly after his birth by his dad as the paparazzi waited outside.

Prince was 12, Paris was 11, and Bigi was 7 when their famous father died.

Where are Michael Jackson's kids now?

Prince is an actor and producer, known for Daybreak (1993), Hangin' with the Homeboys (1991), and Nano: Hold On (2017), according to IMDb.

In 2019, Prince graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a bachelor's degree in business administration.

Paris is a model, actress, and singer featured in the 2018 action film, Gringo and the 2021 comedy, The Space Between.

She has a contract with IMG Models and an impressive 4.6 million followers on Instagram.

In 2020, Paris debuted her critically acclaimed album, Wilted, and in 2023, she released a single called, Bandaid.

She also hopes to release a full-length album in the near future.

"I have enough [songs] that are already recorded and ready to go that would make an album," she revealed. "In terms of how many [songs] I have written, I don't even know how many I have. Dozens, maybe."

The youngest child of the bunch, Bigi, tends to keep out of the spotlight is said to enjoy martial arts, and is passionate about climate change.

In an interview with People in 2021, Bigi spoke on climate change saying: "I do think it's important we all know about it. We have some work to do but our generation knows how important it is."

The trio also remain close to this day, with Prince saying that they are supportive of each other's passions.

"At this point in our life it doesn't really feel like there's that hierarchy of, 'I'm the older brother,' '' he shared. "It's more [that] we're all siblings and we're kind of all on that same level where my sister has her strengths, and my brother has his strengths, and where I'm not as strong in certain areas, they complement me in that way."

He added, "Any moment that I get to spend with my siblings now, especially as we're getting older and our own lives are starting to blossom and grow, every moment that I get with them, any little family dinner, any family outing, is really a special moment."

In March 2024, the Jackson siblings surprised fans when all three of them showed up on the red carpet for the opening night of MJ: The Musical in London.

Who was Michael Jackson's first wife?

Michael Jackson's first wife was Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of the late Elvis Presley.

Following in her father's footsteps, Lisa Marie grew up to become a singer and songwriter.

She and Michael shocked the world when they tied the knot in 1994.

In a statement weeks after they wed, Lisa Marie announced: "My married name is Mrs. Lisa Marie Presley-Jackson.

"My marriage to Michael Jackson occurred in a private ceremony outside the United States weeks ago. I am very much in love with Michael. I dedicate my life to being his wife."

However, by December 1995, the two called it quits. Their divorce was finalized in August 1996.

Sadly, Lisa Marie, too, passed away on January 12, 2023, after suffering from a small bowel obstruction.
