Michael Jackson’s personal life was pretty much always in the news for one reason or another and it seems to be a trait that carried over to his only daughter. Apart from his suicide attempts and his sexuality, the identity of his biological father has also been the subject of controversy.
It all started when a British actor named MarkLester came out and claimed he was the sperm donor for Paris Jackson’s conception. Rumor has found legs because, before her marriage to Debbie Rowe, she had been an egg donor and had been artificially inseminated. Lester offered to take a paternity test, but Michael’s attorney refused.
The rumor has spawned several conspiracies on the internet, with some going as wild as suggesting she is an Illuminati clone. Some theories also suggest that Debbie Rowe isn’t really her mother. The theories may have arisen from Rowe’s lack of presence in Paris Jackson’s life, but that’s simply down to her giving up custody after her divorce from Michael.
Although there is no official scientific proof yet of who Paris Jackson’s father really is, she was raised by Michael and the two share a bond that obviously still lives on with Paris to this day and, in response to the rumours, Paris regards Michael as her father. The 20-year-old actress proved that with a body covered in multiple tattoos of her father.
