Debbie Rowe Not Kids' Biological Mother, Jackson Not Father, Arnold Klein Is: TMZ, US

UPDATE:
Debbie Rowe's lawyer says she IS the biological mother.

PREVIOUSLY:

More stories about the parentage of Michael Jackson's eldest two children, claiming that neither Jackson nor Debbie Rowe are the biological parents, but rather the dad is Jackson's dermatologist and Rowe's former boss Arnold Klein, seen in the photo if you scroll. The below are new on Tuesday from TMZ and Us.

From TMZ:

We've learned Michael Jackson was not the biological father of any of his children. And Debbie Rowe is not the biological mother of the two kids she bore for Michael. All three children were conceived in vitro -- outside the womb.

Multiple sources deeply connected to the births tell us Michael was not the sperm donor for any of his kids. Debbie's eggs were not used. She was merely the surrogate, and paid well for her services in the births of Michael Jr. and Paris.

From Us:

Though Michael Jackson was wed to Prince and Paris' mother, Debbie Rowe, their biological father is Arnold Klein, Jackson's L.A.-based dermatologist and Rowe's former boss, multiple sources confirm to the new issue of Us Weekly.

"He is the dad," says a Jackson insider. "He and Debbie signed an agreement saying they would never reveal the truth."

Those poor, poor children. It's hard enough losing a parent, but to have to put up with all the noise and bulls*** from these hideous people speculatin­g about their parentage, where the money is going to, whether they've been victims of abuse, etc, must be intolerabl­e. And should they suffer psychologi­cally from this experience (which wouldn't surprise me at all), no doubt the finger of blame will be pointed at their father... rather than the media which continues to publish this stuff online and in print and the self serving opportunis­ts who feed the stories to the machine. If the goal of this whole exercise is to further destroy the hearts and minds of children who have already suffered a terrible loss then job well done.

Michael Jackson's former wife...

Debbie Rowe do not really want her children. Any mother would have stepped up immediatel­y, saying: "I WANT MY CHILDREN !" But a week later now, she's still saying, she's still trying to (DECIDE) !
I hope whoever the judge is who resides over the appropriat­e custodian issue, will consider Debbie Rowe's past, to take money in return for her 2 kids, and to give her a DNA test, to establish if she is the bio mother of the 2 kids, that she carried for M. Jackson.

A mother just doesn't keep saying, I'm still trying to decide if I want my children or not ! I hope the court decides to give Michael's mother full custody, and his siblings, who Michael did not leave a stick of gum to, be there for the kids and their mother, when and if needed, until the kids reach adulthood.

Whether or not MJ was the biological father of these kids, he was still their dad. Has Debbie Rowe ever spent time with the kids ans been part of their lives? I don't recall her being involved.

In any case, these kids' last name is Jackson and they should be taken care of by their grandmothe­r, Katherine. If Debbie Rowe got custody of the two children she bore, what would happen to the youngest one? It would be horrible to separate him from his older siblings.

I think this controvers­y shows that while people can accept a white person adopting a black or Asian child, they still cannot accept the fact that a Black man was able to raise white-look­ing children. Different Strokes and Webster have warped people's minds. MJ might have been strange, but nobody can say that he didn't love his children and they loved him as much. He was a better father than John Lennon.

Of course he wasn't the father, the kids are white.

I understand the shock about Debbie Rowe possibly not being the mother. But was there a single black person who didn't already know that Michael was not the father ? No way, no how is there a spec of black blood running through those children's veins. There's not a single curl on their heads...ev­en Mariah Carey got some curls.

Not saying this is the case - but my aunt and uncle had two different foster children. They had them for years. The mothers were separated or divorced from their fathers. But they just couldn't take care of their children. That was until - in each case, the father passed away and the children could get social security benefits. It was heart breaking.

Everybody has an opinion...­.

M.J. hasn't even had his funeral yet and all you hear are people butting into the
Jackson's business..­..

Who do the kids belong to.....who is in the will.....

What is it about " the public's right to know everything­."
So much going on in the world that is so much more important than somebody's personal business..­..Why so much focus on this and not things that really should
matter to people....­.Such as....how many people are unemployed­...How many
are losing their homes and how many without insurance.

Get a grip people....­.and try to MYOB... not M. J.'s

Look, there is way more coming out than I ever wanted to know. It is excessive. But the media especially TMZ are digging up everythiin­g. It is very hard to avoid.

Any judge that gives these children to this woman should be the co-defende­nt in a child abuse case.

Well, now that Rowe has announced her concerns about her biological children (who are Jewish because their mother is) being brought up and exposed to the Nation of Islam and I guess, Jehovahs, it seems she is concerned with how her offspring will be raised. Wrap your head around that one.

So many twists and turns.
Poor little motherless and fatherless children.

These children are humans, not commoditie­s. Folks need to stop trying to fix what is not broken. The ocus should be on these children's grieving period.The­se Children are already a part of this family in mourning. Not just folks mourning an ICON. Please Stop under estimating the emotions of these children. They knew Michael as their DAD. Please allow them to honor their dad. Also remember, it's not the age of the one who cares for these children, Its the need to provide assistance to the caregiver
that's important. Even young mothers need assistance­. Therefore, this grandmothe­r with the continued help and nurture of these children's nanny used by Michael, or qualified significan­t others assisting their named grandmothe­r, these children will be fine. Folks need to stop juggling issues and the thoughts about these precious ones as if they were items you buy and sell and toss off as veggies. Keep it real. Keep it simple. Keep these children interest focused.

I am troubled also by the way the children have been treated as commoditie­s. It's like they were ordered, spawned and delivered into the hands of the customer. Our country had better learn something from this case, and protect the rights of children who are conceived as a financial transactio­n.

As insecure, drug addicted and crazy as Michael Jackson might have been, I think he really loved those kids. I hope their future is considered very, very carefully.

Didn't Rowe accept money to disappear. Because Jackson is dead does that break the contract?

Could it possibly be that he was afraid the his biological children would inherit lupus or some other disease. Maybe everyone is reading too much into the wanting to be white thing. What he did and the reason behind it shouldn't really be anyone's business.

You're absolutely correct. But if I may, I don't think it had anything to do with being white, it had to do with not looking at the "man in the mirror" and seeing his horrid father look back at him. And if looking white did that for him then so be it. Whatever, we'll never know, will we. RIP Michael
