Michael Jackson’s daughter has broken her silence: “My dad used…
**Los Angeles, May 29, 2026** — In a rare and emotional interview, Paris Jackson has opened up about her late father, Michael Jackson, revealing intimate memories of their private life away from the spotlight.
The 28-year-old model, actress, and musician described her father as a deeply loving and playful parent who shielded his children from the chaos of fame.
“My dad used to tuck me in and sing ‘Heal the World’ until I fell asleep,” Paris told *Vanity Fair* in an excerpt from an upcoming feature. “He had this gentle voice that made everything feel safe. People saw the King of Pop, but I just knew my dad — the one who made blanket forts and told the silliest jokes.”
Paris, who has largely stayed out of the public eye in recent years while focusing on her music and mental health advocacy, said she felt it was time to share more positive stories about her upbringing. She emphasized that her father taught her the importance of kindness, creativity, and staying grounded despite immense wealth and scrutiny.
Michael Jackson passed away in 2009 at age 50. Paris has previously defended her father against public allegations, but this latest reflection focuses solely on cherished family moments.
Fans have flooded social media with support, calling the interview “healing” and “long overdue.” Paris says she hopes sharing these memories keeps her father’s artistic legacy alive while reminding the world of the man behind the music.
