Paris Jackson hopes brothers ‘can put up a united front’ in dad’s estate lawsuit, per source
According to Star Magazine, Paris Jackson is continuing the lawsuit against the executors of her late dad Michael Jackson’s estate. Her decision to move forward comes after a judge recently dismissed part of an earlier motion that sought to hold estate attorneys and executors John Branca and John McClain responsible for alleged financial concerns.
Following that setback, her legal team submitted a new filing on November 18. It detailed the issues they intend to pursue, according to paperwork obtained by Star Magazine. A source familiar with the situation said Paris remains determined to continue the case despite the strain it has caused. The insider explained that she views the matter as something she “has to see through” and is unwilling to abandon, even under mounting pressure.
The source added that her motivation is closely tied to her father’s reputation, noting that Paris believes Michael Jackson would want her to “protect his legacy,” regardless of differing opinions from others.
As the dispute progresses, Paris is also hoping for unity within her family. According to the insider, she wants her brothers, namely Prince, 28, and Bigi, 23, to stand with her as the case unfolds. Although Paris has previously voiced concerns about the upcoming biopic on their father, which Prince is helping produce, the source said she hopes those creative disagreements can be set aside for the siblings to present “a united front” regarding the estate.
The insider added that the legal battle has been a source of significant stress for Paris and could leave her in a “vulnerable headspace,” making family support especially important at this stage.
