TJ Jackson made co-guardian of Michael Jackson’s children

A judge in California granted Tito “TJ” Jackson permanent co-guardianship of Michael Jackson’s children along with their grandmother Katherine Jackson, but not without unexpected drama. Despite a plea from a woman, Deborah Jackson, claiming she was the cousin of Michael Jackson, Judge Mitchell Beckloff granted TJ Jackson the motion to share guardianship of the three children with Michael’s mother.

Judge Beckloff made the decision after considering a letter submitted by singer Diana Ross, in which the singer said she has met TJ and believes he has good intentions in caring for Michael’s children. According to Beckloff, Ross mentioned in the letter that she is very interested in what happens with the children and that she takes her role in the will as the next guardian in line very seriously.
