Blanket Jackson Steps Out For The First Time Since Sister Paris' Suicide Attempt
Posted on Wed Jun 19th, 2013 6:30am PDT By X17 Staff
Blanket and his big brother Prince Jackson went shopping at the Westfield Topanga Mall on Tuesday afternoon, and this is the first time we've seen Michael Jackson's youngest son out since sister Paris' suicide attempt earlier this month. Later in the afternoon Blanket went to karate class, and he seemed to be in good spirits.
Paris is still recovering in the hospital, but her late father's wrongful death trial is still going on, and a previously taped testimony from the troubled teen was played in court today. Paris spoke about the family's former nanny, Grace Rwaramba, and though the Jackson family had essentially hinted that Rwaramba had been fired by AEG, the company's lawyer Jessica Stebbins Bina played a clip from Paris' deposition that seems to speak otherwise.
When asked why Rwaramba was let go Paris replied, "My dad didn't like her... She was sneaky. She wasn't an honest person, and lied a lot. One time when me and my brother were really young, before Blanket was born. She would call the hotel and say she was his wife and they'd let her in, and he'd wake up and she'd be like in his bed.... She was obsessed with him. That's what he told us...kinda freaky."
