Michael Jackson has always done a great job of keeping his kids out of the public eye—even though the King of Pop's measures may have seemed a bit odd to some people (e.g. covering them in veils and masks).
Now that he's died, people are wondering what's going to happen to Jackson's kids, Prince Michael Jackson, 12; Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, 11; and Prince Michael Jackson II, 7 (nicknamed Blanket).
Some of the possibilities: Debbie Rowe, Jackson's ex-wife and the mother of Prince and Paris, might want custody of her two kids. Blanket was born via a surrogate.
Jackson's mother, Katherine Jackson, could fight for custody of all three of her grandchildren.
Grace Rwaramba, the children's nanny who has worked for Jackson for the past 20 years, is a contender and according to news reports, she's the one Jackson wanted to raise his kids.

KATHERINE IS NO LONGER WITH HER HUSBAND. THEY HAVE BEEN DIVORCED FOR QUITE SOME TIME. AND BESIDES SHE WOULDN'T LET NOTHING HAPPEN TO HER SON'S KIDS. MIKE WAS HER WORLD. NOW IF HE LEFT A WILL FOR HIS NANNY TO TAKE THE CHILDREN THEN SO BE IT. BUT PLEASE LET THEM STAY CLOSE TO THEIR FAMILY.
Usually, I side with family, but in this case, the Nanny, Miss Grace, is the best choice. Kathering Jackson is about the same age as my mother (75). I have a difficult time keeping up with my 3 g-kids.
Hmm... well, Michael made his wishes known, so who would I be to contend with that? I'm sure the siblings would all prefer to stay together.
I'm torn between Katherine and Grace. I truly believe that the sibilings should not be split up. But Debbie should not get the kids, she already gave them up. And if she cared about them, she wouldn't want to split them up like she is attempting to do now.
Why did he not put it ina will?
Everyone should make this decision before their child is born. There should be no fights for the children as parents you should have made it.
The nanny should keep them. She has totally raised them up until the past four years then Michael was helping. Now that he is gone she should keep the children and the money that goes with them...The woman who gave birth to them and SOLD them deserves no more than I derserve of those children.....She sold the children like I have sold my liter of puppy dogs....She has no reason to even speak a word...The family hasn't been their for Micheal so stay away now....Come only for visits as has been in the past...The money is NOT for you it is for the children..You showed Micheal your love while he was alive don't screw it up now that he is dead...Leave the children with the nanny where they will be happy and loved and they have ALWAYS been...........LacyLady

i really hope his mother doesnt get the kids-i truly believe the LAST thing michael would have wanted is for his kids to be raised anywhere near his father!!!!!
and obviously debbie didnt want the kids to begin with so why give her a way to get more money since thats all shes interested in anyways!
those kids should be with the woman who has helped raise them this whole time-their nany-they need some kind of normalcy-as close to what their lives were when michael was with them-poor kids...
