Paris Jackson Receives $65 Million from Michael Jackson’s Estate
📄 New Court Documents Reveal Details
New legal documents have revealed that Paris Jackson has received about $65 million from her late father Michael Jackson’s estate since his death. The information came to light amid ongoing legal disputes surrounding the management of the estate’s massive fortune.
⚖️ Court Filings Address Paris’s Concerns
The filing, submitted to court on October 9 and obtained by People magazine, was a direct response to questions Paris raised earlier this year about how the estate’s funds were being handled. In June 2025, Paris expressed concern about certain financial transactions, prompting the estate executors to issue a detailed clarification.
💵 Estate Defends Its Management
The executors emphasized that Paris has greatly benefited from the estate’s management, stating: “Few have benefited more from the estate’s decisions than Paris herself, who has received approximately $65 million in benefits. She would not have received this much if the executors had followed the traditional, conservative approach to estate management since July 2009.”
📈 From Debt to a $2 Billion Empire
They further highlighted that the estate was heavily in debt after Michael Jackson’s death, but strong business strategies turned it into a financial powerhouse. “The estate was initially burdened with debts and obligations, but we transformed it into a $2 billion empire that remains a major force in the music industry today,” the filing read.
👨👩👧 The Jackson Family and Ongoing Cases
Paris and her brothers Prince and Bigi (formerly known as Blanket) are the primary heirs to Michael Jackson’s fortune. Meanwhile, the estate continues to face a major lawsuit from Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who accuse Jackson of sexual abuse and are seeking $400 million in damages, according to Us Weekly.
⚠️ Legal and Financial Risks
A separate filing submitted on September 15 warned that failure to approve necessary legal expenses could endanger the estate’s defense. It stated: “The estate may be unable to continue defending itself in a case where hearings and depositions are set to take place in the coming months. With plaintiffs seeking $400 million, failure to defend the case would be disastrous.”
📢 Final Thoughts
As legal battles continue, the spotlight remains firmly on the Jackson family and the management of Michael’s legacy. With millions already paid out and new lawsuits pending, the estate faces one of its most challenging financial and legal chapters yet.
