Michael, who died at age 50 in 2009, was also dad to Prince, born Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., now 20. People reported in June that Blanket, who was just 7 at the time of his dad's death, attends an elite private school in Los Angeles and enjoys martial arts.

"The siblings all remain close," a source told the magazine.

Paris, meanwhile, was recently spotted modeling at a photo shoot in Paris, and will make her acting debut on the Fox series Star. Prince praised Paris on Instagram this month after she wore a dress she co-designed to the Grammy Awards.

"So proud of my sister, not only did she address a crowd that big, but she designed a tasteful dress that expresses her individuality and uniqueness and she ROCKED it. Proud of you @parisjackson," he wrote.
