How old is Paris Jackson and who is her biological father?
PARIS Jackson has made a name for herself with a successful acting and modelling career in the US. Here is everything you need to know about the star. Paris Jackson was born on April 3 1998 in Beverly Hills, California. Jackson's mother Debbie Rowe, a Dermatology assistant from Washington, gave birth to the now 23-year-old at Spaulding Pain Medical Clinic on the west coast of the United States. The model and actress has one older brother, Prince Jackson, and a younger half-brother, Bigi Jackson. From a very early age, the siblings wore masks in public outings in an attempt to be shielded from the intense public interest in their family. Pop legend Michael Jackson is the biological father of Paris. She is the middle child and only daughter of the King of Pop, and the youngest child of her mother Debbie. Jackson was raised exclusively by her father, who was awarded full custody rights of Paris following his divorce in 1999. Rowe has since stated it was her intention to hand over custody rights to Jackson and that Paris would be raised by her father. When Jackson died in June 2009, Paris and her siblings were left in the custody of their grandmother Katherine Jackson. Paris has spoken extensively about her dad in the past. Paris has said: My dad was really good about making sure we were cultured, making sure we were educated and not just showing us the glitz and glam, like hotel-hopping, five-star places."

He was very humble."
