Michael Jackson’s Youngest Son Spotted At Discount Store Amid Trust Fund Drama

Amidst family tension over the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson‘s estate, his youngest child, Bigi, was recently spotted at a Target store shopping for toiletries. The 22-year-old purchased a Minecraft game, hand sanitizer, toothpaste, and Kleenex tissues from the Los Angeles store and made for checkout.

Bigi, who has dropped his former name, Blanket, appeared unbothered and cozy in his casual outfit as eyes pried on him from every corner. Wasting no time, he took his items to the parking lot and left the area in his purple Tesla vehicle.

Meet Bigi

Bigi is the third of Michael’s three kids and was born Prince Michael Jackson II in 2002 via surrogate. Although not much is known about the young man, he generally enjoys Sci-Fi and science, and he bonds with his oldest brother, Prince, over similar interests.

Bigi is also an advocate for climate change initiatives, having called on leaders via Good Morning Britain in 2019 to invest in climate change-focused niches. At the time, he collaborated with his siblings Prince and Paris to create a Thriller Night event at their Hayvenhurst home, with the proceeds going to the Heal Los Angeles Foundation.

The Jackson’s legal battle

Recent reports say Michael had about $500 million in unpaid debt before his death in 2009. On the other hand, Michael’s mother, Katherine Jackson, refused to release the late star’s catalog to Sony Music for $600 million; however, she was met with pushback and, finally, a ruling that endorsed the sale.

Bigi also stopped his grandmother from using the estate’s funds to continue her legal battle, asking her to pay out of pocket. Although there were rumors of a physical fight between Michael’s kids and his siblings, Katherine assured the public of zero feuds. Coupled with ongoing challenges, the IRS is out for the estate due to a $700 million tax debt, causing Bigi and his older siblings to be cut off their trust fund payments.
