Prince Jackson: From College Graduate to Hollywood Producer and Fiancé
Prince Jackson, the eldest son, has consciously chosen a path that honors his father’s legacy while establishing his own identity outside the shadow of the "King of Pop." His focus is squarely on the business and creative side of entertainment, a world his father was preparing to re-enter before his death.
The Hollywood Biopic and King’s Son Productions
Prince’s most significant professional move in 2025 is his active involvement in the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, tentatively titled "Michael." Sources confirm that Prince is working as a producer on the film, ensuring the portrayal of his father is authentic and respectful. This hands-on role gives him a direct line to preserving the artistic integrity of his father's story, a crucial responsibility for the Jackson family.
His production company, King's Son Productions, is a clear nod to his heritage, with a vision to eventually tackle major film projects, a goal Michael Jackson himself had planned to pursue more aggressively. Prince’s business administration degree from LMU has provided the foundation for him to manage his professional endeavors and his significant inheritance with acumen.
A Major Personal Milestone: Engagement to Molly Schirmang
While his professional life is booming, Prince’s personal life hit a major milestone in August 2025. He announced his engagement to his longtime college sweetheart, Molly Schirmang. The couple, who met while attending Loyola Marymount University, have maintained a very private relationship over the years. This happy news signifies a new, stable chapter in Prince's life, moving further away from the chaotic spotlight of his childhood and establishing a solid, independent family unit.
Bigi Jackson’s Private Life and the Shocking Estate Legal Battle
The youngest son, Bigi Jackson, has always been the most reserved of Michael Jackson’s children. After changing his name from "Blanket" to Bigi in 2015 to avoid ridicule, he has consistently sought a life away from the public eye, only rarely being photographed in Los Angeles. However, in a surprising turn of events in 2025, Bigi was thrust back into the legal spotlight, not as a passive beneficiary, but as an active participant in a major family dispute.
The $2 Billion Estate and the Legal Challenge
The Michael Jackson Estate is a monumental financial entity, valued at approximately $2 billion as of 2025, built on music catalog sales, publicity rights, and intellectual property. The estate is managed by executors and is designed to distribute 40% of its assets to Michael Jackson's three children through the Michael Jackson Family Trust.
The recent controversy centers on a catalog deal, which his grandmother, Katherine Jackson, is reportedly challenging. Bigi, along with the estate's co-executors, filed legal documents to prevent Katherine Jackson from using the estate’s funds to pay for her legal fees related to her objection to the deal. Bigi’s legal team argued that his grandmother's continuous objections were a "waste" of the estate's time and resources, indicating a clear desire to protect the financial stability of his inheritance and move forward with the estate’s business decisions.
A Rare Display of Public Agency
This legal action is highly significant because it marks one of the first times Bigi Jackson has taken a public, aggressive stance on the management of his father's legacy. For the famously private youngest son, this move demonstrates a mature understanding of his financial position and a willingness to stand up for the interests of the Jackson Family Trust, even if it means opposing his own grandmother. This decision highlights the immense pressure and responsibility that comes with managing such a vast and complex inheritance.
The Future of the Jackson Sons: Legacy and Independence
As the Jackson sons step into their late twenties and early thirties, their focus has clearly shifted from simply inheriting a legacy to actively managing and defining it. Prince’s career in production and his new engagement signal stability and a commitment to building a life on his own terms, while Bigi’s legal actions demonstrate an unexpected, yet firm, commitment to protecting the financial foundation of his father’s immense wealth.
Both brothers, along with their sister, Paris Jackson (who continues her career as a model and musician), receive a substantial annual allowance from the estate, ensuring they are set for life. However, their recent actions prove they are not content to merely live off their inheritance. They are actively involved in the future of the Jackson name, ensuring the "King of Pop's" memory and estate remain robust for decades to come, moving from the children of a legend to the new generation of Jackson family custodians.
