Joe Jackson has admitted that 25-year-old Norwegian rapper/dancer Omer Bhatti is Michael Jackson's secret child.
Joe Jackson finally reveals the fourth child of late Michael Jackson. He claims 25-year-old Omer Bhatti, who sat together with the Jacksons during the King of Pop's memorial, is Michael's child. "I knew that he had another son," Joe told NewsOne. "He looks like a Jackson, he acts like a Jackson, he can dance like a Jackson."
Previously, Joe Jackson refused to confirm that Omer Bhatti is the child of Michael Jackson. The 80-year-old man said his son was just smitten by the Norwegian rapper/dancer's talent, so he decided to take him and his family "under his wing". Furthermore, Joe said Michael employed his mom as a nanny and his dad as a driver at his Neverland ranch.
Contrary to Joe's statement, Ricky Harlow, a musician whose band was signed to Michael's label in 1990s, described Omer and the pop star's connection was "an affectionate, loving type of relationship". "He imitated Michael in every possible way," Ricky told Access Hollywood. "I definitely felt that even if it wasn't really Michael Jackson's son, Michael Jackson treated [him] as if he really was his son."
