After an unusually long time after his death, Michael Jackson has finally been laid to rest. ET confirms that Michael was buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery in the Hollywood Hills, the same place everyone suspected he would be buried shortly after his memorial.
Since the King of Pop passed in June, rumors have been circulating in regards to just about every aspect of his life. Namely, whether or not his is the father of his three children, Michael Joseph "Prince Michael" Jackson Jr., Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael II (known as "Blanket"). The latest rumor was the Michael's long time friend, Mark Lester, was the father of Paris after he donated sperm to Michael.
However, according to Mark and his lawyers, Mark says that he is not the father of Michael's daughter and that he is not claiming paternity. Sources close to Lester say that he donated sperm to Michael but never claimed to be the father, and that the timeline of when he donated and when Paris was born doesn't match up. "These are just merely claims with no legal standing whatsoever," his lawyer tells People.
Although Michael's family and Mark Lester's family were very close friends, there was nothing to indicate him as the father. I guess the only fatherly thing about Mark is that he is the godfather to Michael's three kids. But even that doesn't really matter right now cause grandma Katherine Jackson is officially in charge of them.
Debbie Rowe has always maintained that Michael is the father of Paris and Prince Michael, so there should be no speculation about that. I feel so bad for his kids. First they lose daddy, then they have to go through this whole thing about how their dad maybe isn't their dad. I just hope that no one tells them that daddy may have been murdered. That's never a good thing to hear about your parents, is it?
