Paris Jackson, the daughter of the late pop icon Michael Jackson, is back in the spotlight following reports that she has received a staggering $65 million in benefits from her father’s estate. The revelation came from recent court filings by the executors of Michael Jackson’s estate, shedding light on the scale of financial support the 26-year-old has received since her father’s passing in 2009.
According to the documents, the estate’s management made several premium payouts over the years, one of which—amounting to $625,000 in 2018—has become the center of a dispute between Paris and the estate’s executors. The payment, reportedly made to law firms, raised questions from Paris, who requested detailed documentation on how those funds were handled.
In response, the estate’s executors defended their actions, emphasizing that their management turned what was once a debt-ridden estate into a multi-billion-dollar empire. They highlighted that through smart investments and strategic decisions, including major music catalog deals, the estate has grown significantly—ensuring financial security for Michael Jackson’s beneficiaries.
Paris Jackson, who has often spoken about her father’s legacy and her own journey in music and acting, has not made a public statement regarding the ongoing dispute. However, the situation has reignited discussions about the complexity of managing celebrity estates and the transparency expected in such high-profile financial dealings.
Michael Jackson’s estate remains one of the most profitable in the entertainment world, with consistent earnings from his music catalog, licensing deals, and brand partnerships. While legal tensions may persist, Paris’s reported $65 million benefit underscores the lasting power of her father’s legacy—and how, even 16 years after his death, the King of Pop continues to shape the lives of those closest to him.
