Yesterday (July 14), American media sources had claimed that Debbie Rowe, the mother of Michael Jackson’s two oldest children, would forego her lucrative payoff in exchange for custody of her children.
Stacy Brown, a close member of the Jackson family, revealed that the sum was between three to five million dollars.
However, Rowe’s attorney, Eric George, completely denied the rumour, saying that the two children’s biological mother would be holding onto her parental rights.
The attorney stated, "There has been no agreement reached between Ms. Rowe and the Jacksons. Ms. Rowe has not and will not give up her parental rights. No determination has been reached concerning custody or visitation. And Ms. Rowe has not accepted and will not accept any additional financial consideration beyond the spousal support she and Michael personally agreed to several years ago."
