Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris making ‘matters worse’ amid financial woes
Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris has accused his lawyers of siphoning off large sums of money from his estate, all while several lawsuits stand ready to blow the King of Pop’s estimated $788 million fortune.
Paris filed a petition in Los Angeles Superior Court demanding a full accounting of legal expenses after noticing “irregular payments” made by executors of MJ’s estate, John Branca and John McClain.
“As painful as it is to say in print, the present records suggest that a group of closely knit, highly compensated lawyers is exploiting Executors’ lack of oversight to skim money from the Estate, in plain view,” her lawyer wrote in a lengthy document.
“Even worse, these payments appear, at least in part, to consist of lavish gratuities bestowed upon already well-compensated counsel,” he added.
The executors have denied the allegations and argued that the money is being spent on defending various lawsuits against the late singer.
An insider revealed the state of things among the Jacksons, saying, “This is a family crisis. The fear is when you have a $400 million potential payout, what’s going to be left for the heirs?”
“And what a lot of people don’t know is that they are still trying to work things out with the IRS, which has been after them about Michael’s money since he died,” the mole continued, per Radar Online.
This comes after Paris also criticised the upcoming biopic Michael, calling it “fiction.”
“Paris is not helping matters,” the insider said.
“They are trying to generate income, and she’s bad-mouthing the movie, claiming the estate is misusing the money and basically causing another financial headache that could cripple the family,” they added.
It is widely reported that Sydney Sweeney has split with longtime partner Jonathan Davino. However, it seems the latter, in a recent attempt, tried to reconcile.
But a source tells TMZ that the megastar flatly refused, stating, “I don’t believe you. Please leave, leave me alone.”
This tense encounter comes after the star was snapped hopping into the car of her ex-fiancé after exiting from an Uber SUV.
In snaps published by the outlet, the Euphoria star was seen in the vehicle but appeared to duck down to avoid the paparazzi outside.
The ex-couple’s sighting at Santa Monica, Calif., comes after the Christy star was with her pals at the popular restaurant Giorgio Baldi.
Reports say the group was in a private back room, watching the World Series’ seven game.
The former pair’s meet-up comes on the heels of a report in Page Six, which claims, citing a source, that Sydney had been mistreated by a person who had been in her life in the past.
Yet the insider did not reveal its name, but it alleged, “Sydney went through a lot with someone in her past who mistreated her. This person used her and took advantage of her — including financially.”
Meanwhile, Sydney is said to be dating music executive Scooter Braun.
Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla have reportedly joined forces against Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, as King Charles takes strict measures against his “disgraced” brother.

While conversing with PEOPLE magazine, the 57-year-old American actress, who is famous for the roles she played in movies and television, revealed that she has entered a new chapter of her life, and it is something she is experiencing for the first time.
Arquette, who plays the role of Maggie Murdaugh, murdered South Caroline matriarch, in Murdaugh: Death in the Family, said, “I’m at a really exciting moment in my life.”
She quipped, “My kids are grown up, I’m single, I don’t have to take anybody else’s dreams into account as far as: where do I want to live? What do I want my house to look like? Can I go on this vacation with my girlfriend or not?”
The Severance star went on to note that “I get to ask myself for the first time in my life — because I was a mom at 20 — what do I want to do?”
For those unaware, Arquette is the mother of two: a 36-year-old son, Enzo, whom she welcomed with her ex, Paul Rossi, and a 22-year-old daughter, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Thomas Jane.
It is pertinent to mention that the Escape at Dannemora actress was married to Jane from 2006 to 2011. She also tied the knot with Nicolas Cage in 1995 but annulled the marriage in 2001.
