Katherine loses custody of Michael Jackson's children

The Jackson family matriarch Katherine lost custody of her late son Michael's three children after a judge awarded temporary guardianship of the trio to their cousin TJ. 

Prince, 15, Paris, 14, and Blanket, 10 will be cared for by their 34-year-old cousin who had been staying with them in their grandmother's absence.


Katherine said: 'I am devastated that while I've been away, my grandchildren have been taken away from me and I'm coming home.'

And she claimed the move was 'based on a bunch of lies.'

But she failed to explain why she hadn't notified her three wards of her intention to take a 'short vacation and rest'.
