Prince Jackson's New Chapter: Engagement, Hollywood, and Legacy
Prince Jackson, the eldest son, has consistently been the most public-facing of the three siblings, but his latest news is a deeply personal one that has captured the attention of fans worldwide. In August 2025, Prince announced his engagement to his longtime girlfriend, Molly Schirmang.
The couple met during their time at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) and have been together for approximately eight years, building a relationship away from the intense media glare. Molly Schirmang is not a public figure, and their quiet commitment reflects Prince's desire for a stable, grounded life outside the 'celebrity' bubble. Their engagement marks a significant and happy milestone in the Jackson family's new generation.
A Producer's Role in the Michael Biopic
Beyond his personal life, Prince Jackson is cementing his professional legacy by actively participating in the preservation and continuation of his father's artistic work. He is currently working as a producer on the highly anticipated biographical film, Michael, which will star his nephew, Jaafar Jackson, as the King of Pop.
This role is not merely honorary. Prince's company, King's Son Productions, is instrumental in various projects related to the Michael Jackson Estate. This involvement ensures that the narrative and artistic integrity of Michael Jackson's legacy are maintained by those closest to him, offering a unique, authentic perspective that fans and critics are eager to see. He has often spoken about using his platform to promote his father's humanitarian efforts and philanthropic vision.
The Reclusive Life of Bigi Jackson: Fortune, Privacy, and the Future
Bigi Jackson, formerly known by the childhood nickname "Blanket," is perhaps the most enigmatic of Michael Jackson's children. Born via a surrogate, Bigi has always been known for his extreme shyness and desire for a life out of the public eye. His change of name to Bigi in 2015 was a conscious decision to distance himself from the bullying he experienced due to the nickname 'Blanket,' a move supported by his family.
Despite his reclusive nature, Bigi is a billionaire heir to one of the world's most valuable music catalogs. He lives in a luxurious, multi-million-dollar home in Calabasas, California, purchased by the Jackson Estate, which also covers his insurance, property taxes, and all maintenance expenses.
Unlike his siblings, Bigi has not pursued a public career in music, acting, or production. His passions lean toward philanthropy and environmental awareness, often giving him a quiet purpose. His current life is a testament to the Jackson family's efforts to ensure he has the privacy and stability his father always sought for him. He and his siblings remain extremely close, often seen together at family events, demonstrating a strong, united front against the pressures of their famous lineage.
The $600 Million Estate Battle: Why the Trust Funds Are Frozen (2024-2025)
A major, fresh development that affects both Prince and Bigi is the ongoing legal and financial drama surrounding the Michael Jackson Estate. In a landmark deal in February 2024, the Estate Executors, John Branca and John McClain, sold a significant portion of Michael Jackson's music publishing and recorded music catalog to Sony Music Group for an estimated $600 million. This blockbuster deal immediately skyrocketed the value of the children's inheritance.
However, despite this massive influx of cash, the children—Prince, Bigi, and Paris—have been prevented from receiving distributions from their trust funds. The reason is a complex, ongoing legal dispute between the Jackson Estate and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) over the valuation of Michael Jackson's assets at the time of his death.
In a ruling updated in May and August 2024, a Los Angeles appeals court allowed the Sony deal to proceed but maintained the freeze on trust fund distributions until the Estate and the IRS can settle the multi-million-dollar tax dispute. This legal saga means that while the Jackson children are among the wealthiest heirs in the world, their access to the full extent of their inheritance remains legally constrained.
This legal situation is a crucial piece of the Jackson family's current reality, highlighting the complex financial machinery required to manage the legacy of the King of Pop. It is a powerful reminder that their lives are governed not just by personal choices but by the enduring legal and financial battles of their father's extraordinary life.
The Enduring Legacy of Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. and Prince Michael Jackson II
Prince and Bigi Jackson, alongside their sister Paris, represent a new generation carrying the weight of the Jackson name. They have successfully transitioned from being the world's most protected children to independent young adults. Prince's engagement to Molly Schirmang and his professional commitment to the Michael biopic signal a life dedicated to building his own family and honoring his father's artistic vision. Bigi's choice of a private, low-key life, supported by the immense wealth of the Jackson Estate, demonstrates a different but equally valid path to stability.
The ongoing legal battles over the trust funds and the massive music catalog sale are a constant reminder of the unparalleled scale of their inheritance. As the years progress, the Jackson sons continue to define their identities—not as a continuation of the King of Pop's story, but as the authors of their own, highly scrutinized, yet deeply personal narratives.
