When Michael Jackson died in 2009, the veteran music star left behind his three kids, Prince, Paris, and Bigi (also known as Blanket). Years after his death, the kids are leading very successful careers, but exactly how rich are they?

Michael Jackson’s death at the age of 50 left the world in shock and heartbreak. The veteran music star, loved by millions, had reigned for countless years as the King of Pop and released multiple top-charting songs.

In addition to his music legacy and evergreen discography, the veteran star also left behind three kids; Prince Michael Jackson, Paris Jackson, and youngest son Prince Michael Jackson II (a.k.a Bigi or Blanket). Michael designated his mother to raise his children, and now more than a decade after his death, they are all grown up and leading their individual lives and career.

Eldest son Prince currently works behind the scenes in Hollywood as a producer and director. One of his most notable works is directing a music video for his younger sister Paris who, in addition to being a musician, is also a model and actress.

However, in contrast to his elder siblings, not much is known about Bigi, who lives a low-key life with little to no presence on social media.

8Where Are Michael Jackson’s Kids Now?

Michael’s eldest child, Prince, continued his studies after the legendary musician died. In 2019 he graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a degree in business.

While still at university, Prince met and started a relationship with Molly Schirmang, and the pair continued their romance after graduation.

In contrast to his father, Prince, who can not sing or dance, has no plans of being a musician; instead, his interest lies behind the cameras. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, he said:

“I’m looking to become well-rounded as a producer, director, screenwriter, and actor.”

Prince has also taken a keen interest in charity work which he has done through the Heal Los Angeles Foundation to support inner-city youths through educational initiatives and nutritious meals.

Meanwhile, second-born and only daughter Paris embraced Hollywood and became an aspiring actor, model, and singer. Paris has starred in multiple movies, including the TV series Star and Scream and the movie Gringo.

The actress is also signed to IMG Models and currently sings under the alias PK Dragonfly in the musical group The Soundflowers.

Unlike his siblings, the youngest child Bigi has stayed away from the limelight. He has no social media account but occasionally appears on Prince and Paris’ Instagram pages when they share his pictures.

7How Much Is Paris Jackson Worth?

Outside of whatever Michael left her as inheritance, Paris has been working to forge a singing and acting career. As an actress, she has appeared in multiple movies and TV shows, including Habit, alongside Bella Thorne and Gavin Rosedale. Paris also released her album Wilted in November 2010

Although Michael died with a negative bank balance of $500 million, since his death, the family has been able to earn over $700 million from his music royalties and other commercial ventures.

Since his death, Paris and her brothers have received $8 million each year from the late musician’s estate. In addition to that, the kids are thought to inherit about $2 billion altogether when they reach the age of 33.

Apart from the annual allowance, Paris earns a lot from her work in film, TV, modeling, and music. Income from her career, totaled with her inheritance and allowance, has brought Paris’ net worth to $100 million.

6Is Paris Richer Than Prince And Bigi?

Prince and Paris are both leading very successful careers in Hollywood, contributing to their wealth, unlike their younger brother Bigi. But according to Celebrity Net Worth, the kids are all reportedly each worth $100 million.

5Who Is The Richest Jackson In The Jackson Family?

The Jackson family rose to nationwide stardom during the 1960s when a bunch of the brothers trained by their father, Joseph Jackson, went from just local talents to musical superstars.

Famously known as The Jackson 5, consisting of Marlon Jackson, Jackie Jackson, Tito Jackson, Jermaine Jackson, and Michael Jackson, the group went on to win multiple awards and release top-charting songs.

In addition to the five kids already in the group, father Joe and mother Katherine gave birth to four more children, including sisters Janet, Latoya, Rebbie, and second youngest son Randy.

Over the years, the sisters also got involved in music and became recognized and successful. But as the years progressed, not all of them could adequately manage their finances and careers.

In addition to being the most talented and famous of the Jackson siblings, Michael remained the richest of the siblings.

3How Does Paris Jackson Spend Her Net Worth?

Paris could live whatever lifestyle she wanted with a net worth of $100 million. In 2017 at just 19 years old, she bought a house in Topanga, California, for $2 million.

Apart from her expensive mansion, Paris is also a lover of expensive cars. The young model has a Jeep Wrangler in her collection, which costs over $30,000, and a more expensive Cadillac Escalade, which costs about $96,000.

Away from her expensive assets, Paris is also known to be a lovely person who showers her friends with gifts and takes them on trips. She also spends a lot of money purchasing musical instruments, getting tattoos, and her beloved Vans shoes.

2Is Paris Jackson Following In Her Father’s Footsteps?

Paris actively followed in her father’s steps by becoming a well-known musician herself. In 2018 she formed the folk band The Soundflowers with Gabriel Glenn.

They performed for the first time at Canyon Sessions on June 23, 2018, and in June 2020, released a self-titled EP. Paris also performs the vocals and the ukulele.

1Was Paris Jackson Close To Her Dad?

Unlike her brothers, Prince and Bigi, Paris has always been vocal about her relationship with their late father and how close they were. As children, Paris declared Michael loved cooking with them, and he even taught her how to make sweet potato pie.

Also, when she was eight years old and fell in love with a woman on a magazine cover, she told her father, who, instead of getting angry like some parents, only teased her.

Paris also revealed their father wanted them to be proud of their black roots. Michael supported her dreams, and as a kid, he would tell her she could be bigger than him if she wanted to. Also, if Paris did not want the celebrity lifestyle, she could do whatever she wanted as long as it made her happy.
