He was made a co-guardian of Michael Jackson's three children when the
singer died in 2009, along with his grandmother Katherine.
But the late superstar's nephew TJ Jackson has reportedly moved 76 miles
away from where Paris, 15, Prince, 16, and Blanket, 11, live in LA,
without informing Child And Family Services.
The authorities are said to have discovered that the 34-year-old now
lives two hours away when they inspected the Calabasas home where the
15-year-old reportedly tried to commit suicide on Wednesday, and will
now be investigating.
A source told The New York Post: 'They thought he was living around the
corner. They were totally surprised by this. They’ve said they’re going
to need a few days to sort this out.'
'So the bottom line is we have an 83-year-old woman raising teenagers by
herself, and that just won’t fly,' they added.
TJ is said to have upped sticks and left the area a few months ago and
relocated to the town of Corona, and reported failed to tell the correct
authorities.
But a separate source, close to the estate, said: 'They are very
satisfied with him.There is no issue.'
The singer, who was appointed co-guardian of his uncle's children last
year, was chosen because of his responsible nature and his close
proximity to the family.
He was made their temporary guardian when his grandmother Katherine went
to a spa in Arizona in July 2012 and was reportedly out of contact.
But her guardianship rights were reinstated a little while later after a
lengthy court battle, and she now shares the duties with her grandson.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, documents obtained in March show
that Tito Jackson's son currently receives $9,000 a month for his duties
as co-guardian.
The documents filed with the LA Superior Court state that, at the time,
TJ spent four or five days a week in the children's home with them,
clocking up an estimated 60-80 hours a week.
The singer lived in a residence close by by with his wife and three
children before he reportedly relocated.
Paris Jackson's mother Debbie Rowe, grandmother Katherine and aunt La
Toya Jackson were all spotted visiting her at her LA hospital after she
was admitted after her suicide attempt.
Sources say that while Paris is close to the Jackson matriach, she has
been searching for more guidance.
'Paris loves her grandmother but feels that Katherine can't provide for
her emotional needs,' an insider tells People magazine.
'She and Katherine are close, but it just isn't working for Paris.
That's why Paris has turned to Debbie Rowe. There is something missing
in Paris's life. The family hasn't really taken this serious.'
Another source adds that Katherine has been distracted with Michael's
wrongful death court case.
' loves Katherine, but Katherine is dealing with the trial - and
Katherine is an old woman. Just getting to the trial and back is a big
deal for Katherine. She's not really capable of giving Paris all the
support she needs,' says the insider.
Paris' brother Prince Michael, 16, was pictured in Los Angeles on
Thursday with his girlfriend Remi Alfalah.
The young couple were spotted shopping at an upmarket
department store
- perhaps picking out a suitable get-well-soon gift for his sister
Paris - before joining Remi's family for a low-key pizza dinner.
Prince cancelled his TV engagements for the day and according to
RadarOnline.com visited Paris on Thursday at the hospital.
The siblings reportedly had 'feuded' recently over Paris spending time
with her biological mother Debbie Rowe, with Prince disapproving of
their recent reconciliation.
A source said Prince put their differences aside after the suicide
attempt.
'Prince stepped up, as he always does and told Paris how much he loves
her in a phone call and vowed to help her in the aftermath of the
suicide attempt,' the source said.
Meanwhile, a source told People, 'Paris is doing well, smiling again and
can't wait to see her friends.'
