Jackson mother gets custody, Rowe gets visits

02 August 2009 02:25

Michael Jackson's mother will get custody of the late pop star's three children after reaching an agreement with his ex-wife Debbie Rowe, avoiding a custody battle only days before a court hearing on the matter.

Rowe will have visitation rights with her two biological children with Jackson -- Prince Michael, 12, and Paris, 11, under the terms of the agreement, lawyers said on Thursday.

The biological mother of Jackson's third child, Prince Michael II, 7, also known as Blanket, has never been revealed.

"Mrs. Jackson and the family are pleased this matter is resolved and was handled in a caring, thoughtful and courteous manner by the parties and their representatives," Londell McMillan, Katherine Jackson's attorney, said in a statement.

"We were all united in our goals to do what is best for Michael's wonderful children, and both Mrs. Jackson and Debbie Rowe were on the exact same page," McMillan said.

Eric George, an attorney for Rowe, said in a statement that the agreement was a "dignified outcome."

"The sole consideration between the parties was the best interests of the children," he said.
