Since Michael Jackson's untimely passing on June 25, all three of his children have been staying with their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. One can only imagine how hard this must have been for them. Good news - a settlement has finally been reached and those kids will have a home to call their own.

Michael's mother has been granted permanent sole custody of Prince Michael I, 12, Paris-Michael Katherine, 11, and Prince Michael II, 7. Debbie Rowe, the biological mother of the first two will have visitation rights and retains legal parental rights, according to ABC News.

I’m so glad that Katherine Jackson, Michael’s mother got custody of his children. Even though Rowe has denied allegations she doesn’t want to have the kids full time. Apparently, it was read in an email from a [supposed] friend that Debbie Rowe was quoted saying “Do I want the kids? Hell, no!” For some reason, I believe the email! I know it may sound unfair, but it’s just the way I feel.
