Paris Jackson Reconciles With Estranged Mother Debbie Rowe
Less than two months ago, the feud between Paris Jackson and Debbie Rowe was still playing out on a public stage.
Paris unfollowed Debbie on Twitter just before Mother’s Day, thus prompting the mother of Michael Jackson’s two oldest children bemoan the sorry state of her relationship with her kids on social media:
“One of the saddest things in this world is to see a child grow up hating one of their parents because they only got one side of the story,” Rowe tweeted.
Paris was reportedly unsympathetic, and it looked for a time as though the relationship between mother and daughter may have been damaged beyond repair.
This week, however, following almost a year in which they had zero contact with one another, sources say Paris and Debbie have finally buried the hatchet.
According to TMZ, Paris reached out after reading an article about her mother’s struggle with breast cancer.
Insiders say Debbie was overjoyed when she received a text reading simply, “I love you.”
Rowe is scheduled to undergo surgery this week, and Paris and Debbie have reportedly made plans to spend time catching up during her recovery.
Paris and Debbie reportedly had trouble in their relationship for several years following the death of Michael Jackson.
Sources say Michael’s family didn’t approve of her relationship with her mother, whom they felt had all but abandoned her after her relationship with the iconic singer came to an end.
To make matters worse, when Paris began struggling with emotional issues, Debbie reportedly felt that the girl lacked discipline in her life.
She went from absentee mother to strict disciplinarian, and Paris reportedly was not a fan of the new approach.
Now, however, it seems that all is well between Paris and Debbie.
We wish Ms. Rowe the best on her upcoming surgery.

Debbie Rowe: Diagnosed with Breast Cancer
Debbie Rowe has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
In sad news broken by TMZ, the ex-wife of Michael Jackson was only recently informed by doctors that she has this disease.
She is expected to undergo surgery some time in the next several days.
Rowe, of course, is the mother of 18-year old Paris Jackson.
However, Paris is unaware that her only living parent has been diagnosed because she broke off contact with Rowe back in early 2015.
We’d have to imagine Paris is aware of the situation now, though.
Insiders do not point to one specific incident that fractured the relationship between Rowe and Paris Jackson.
After the legendary musician died, Debbie and Paris actually grew very close; so much so that it caused friction with the rest of the family.
But Paris then went through a number of personal issues, turning to drugs and alcohol to deal with the pain of losing her father.
As a result, her relationship with Rowe fell apart, partly due to the influence of other relatives, Rowe believes.
On Mother’s Day of this year, Jackson unfollowed Debbie via Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, leading to Rowe writing an open letter to her daughter on Facebook.
“One of the saddest things in this world is to see a child grow up hating one of their parents because they only got one side of the story,” Debbie wrote at the time.
The nurse married Michael Jackson in 1996.
She gave birth to two of the late artist’s kids, Paris and her older brother, Prince.
The couple divorced in 1999, at which time Rowe signed over all parental rights to Jackson.
We send her our best wishes for a full recovery.

Paris Jackson Sticks It To Debbie Rowe On Mother"s Day
The relationship between Paris Jackson and her biological mother, Debbie Rowe is – for lack of a better word – nonexistent, at least to the public.
On Mother’s Day, Jackson unfollowed Debbie via Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, which prompted the her to write an open message via Facebook.
“One of the saddest things in this world is to see a child grow up hating one of their parents because they only got one side of the story,” Debbie wrote.
The nurse married Michael Jackson in 1996 and gave birth to two of his children, Paris and her older brother, Prince.
The couple divorced in 1999 and Rowe signed over all parental rights to Jackson.
Following Jackson’s 2009 death, Debbie fought for (and won) supervised visitation rights from Jackson family matriarch, Katherine Jackson.
Some allege that Debbie is not the biological mother of Paris and Prince, but rather their surrogate, which she has fervently denied.
Shortly after her father’s passing, Paris and Debbie met at Jackson’s Neverland Ranch.
“They talked about the weather, they talked about Neverland and the various places they’ve been to around the world,” a source told the New York Post after the meeting.
“It was delicate, I’m sure, for Debbie, who let Paris do most of the talking. Now, it’s both of them; they gab a lot.”
In 2003, Debbie revealed to ABC News how she and the king of pop got together. He had just split with Lisa Marie Presley, and had desperately wanted to be a dad.
“‘Let me do this. I want to do this. You have been so good to me,"” Debbie recalled telling Jackson.
“‘You are such a great friend. Please let me do this. You need to be a dad, and I want you to be."”
In what could be a painful statement for Paris to read, Debbie explained why she had her and her older brother.
“I did it for him to become a father, not for me to become a mother,” Debbie said.
“You earn the title parent. I have done absolutely nothing to earn that title.”
