Michael Jackson estate battle: Son Bigi trying to ‘protect’ grandmother from ‘certain’ family members

filed by Bigi, formerly known as Blanket, show that the 93-year-old matriarch is trying to tap into funds from Michael’s estate to challenge a $600 million music catalog deal.Katherine’s side argues that the estate should cover her $500,000 legal fees, while Bigi disagrees.“… it seems clear to [Katherine] that the Executors are holding all of the assets in the Estate in order to keep control over them, and to avoid the more liberal distribution requirements of the Trust,” says a new complaint filed by Katherine’s attorney, according to People.But close family sources say this is not really about Bigi, now 22, trying to deny his grandmother anything.Rather, it’s about trying to wean the extended family off Michael’s legacy.“Bigi isn’t going against his grandmother. Bigi is really trying to protect his grandmother in the same manner that Michael did, which is to protect her from the Jacksons!” a longtime family associate told The Post.“It’s the same s–t,” the associate said, alleging that some relatives get money from the trust via soft-hearted Katherine.

‘Say Say Say’ what? Paris Jackson squishes between Beatles at Stella McCartney show after MJ-Macca feud
Paris Jackson, the 25-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson, sat thisclose to Paul McCartney — who famously went from friends to enemies with the King of Pop — in the front row of the Stella McCartney show during Paris Fashion Week on Monday.After MJ bought the rights to the Beatles catalog out from under his duet partner on “The Girl Is Mine” and “Say Say Say” in 1985, Jackson’s eldest child was squished between two of the Fab Four — Macca, 81, to her right, and Ringo Starr, 83, to her left — at the Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 show by Sir Paul’s daughter Stella.It was the ultimate designer detente — amid a star-studded audience that also included singer-rapper M.I.A., model Ashley Graham, “The Good Place” star Jameela Jamil, British actresses Naomie Harris and Charlotte Rampling, and Barbara Bach, Starr’s Bond-girl wife.Sharing her late father’s animal-rights activism and environmental consciousness, Jackson — a singer, model and actress — gave her show of support for McCartney’s ready-to-wear collection promoting sustainable materials.“It’s not just the animals,” Jackson told Women’s Wear Daily about the need for eco-friendly “change” in fashion.“It’s the environment in general, it’s pretty much anything that’s not human about this planet. I support that [and] how do we make it a safer place.”Jackson noted that McCartney doesn’t use any animal leather in her products, instead favoring alternative materials such as mushroom leather.“It’s the vegan stuff and the anti-cruelty, but also just everything she’s doing,” she said of her fellow daughter of music royalty.“She’s very innovative and is finding a way to make activism chic.”But things weren’t always so cool between the Jacksons and the McCartneys.

King Charles is keeping succession plans ‘highly secret’ from Prince Harry: expert
his cancer diagnosis.And according to royal expert and author Tom Quinn, Charles’s ailing health prompted him to work on a concrete plan for when its time to hand over the reins to Prince William.“Succession planning is highly secret and no one trusts Harry to be part of it for the simple reason that if he feels in any way slighted or not given what he feels he deserves he will run straight to the media,” Quinn told the Mirror.Quinn, who wrote “Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family,” suggested that William, the heir to the throne, is “at the heart” of the King’s succession plans.“Charles is also aware that, as future king, William is at the heart of the succession planning that is taking place right now — officials had assumed Charles would remain healthy at least into his mid-eighties before succession planning would need to begin but in fact, it has now begun and indicates perhaps that Charles’ cancer is more dangerous than we have been led to believe,” Quinn added.The Post has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment.It comes just days after it was reported that William had blocked any chance of his younger brother’s return to the royal fold after he reportedly expressed interest in a partial return to royal duties.The Prince of Wales, 41, has apparently made it clear to Harry that he’s no longer welcome to return as a working royal after he and his wife, Meghan Markle, shut the door on royal life in 2020.“Prince William has his own private turmoil,” royal expert and commentator Helena Chard told Fox News.
