The mother of
Michael Jackson, Katherine Esther Scruse aka Katherine Jackson, finally gets permanent custody of the King of Pop's children, Prince Michael Jackson Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, and Prince Michael Jackson II. On Monday, August 3, a Los Angeles judge officially named her a guardian of the children.
Associated Press reports that 12-year-old Prince and 11-year-old Paris have signed declarations which stated that they want to live with Katherine, who got temporary custody of the kids after Michael passed away on July 25. The 79-year-old lady was granted an undisclosed monthly allowance from her son's estate for the three kids' daily needs.
On Thursday, July 30, Katherine Jackson and Debbie Rowe, the biological mother of Prince and Paris, reached a custody agreement. At that time, Rowe was granted supervised visitation rights to her kids.
Back in 2002, Michael Jackson named his mom the first choice to raise his kids when he died. On Monday, August 2, Katherine told FOXNews' Geraldo at Large about the condition of her grandchildren, stating "the children are doing fine."
