Michael Jackson's Lovelife: A Timeline

From the Queen of Pop to Lisa Marie Presley, Michael Jackson has had his share of ups and downs.

With 39 years of stardom, five #1 hit albums, three children, two wives and more tabloid coverage than we can count, Michael Jackson's legacy on the music industry and the world will live on for many years to come. However, despite being an enduring sex symbol since he was a member of the Jackson 5, the recently-departed Jackson had only a handful of romantic relationships throughout his life.

Brooke Shields (1984). Jackson and actress/model Brooke Shields had a brief, but well-publicized relationship in 1984.

Madonna (1991). Whether it was a one-night stand or something else, the King of Pop and the Material Girl raised eye brows when they showed up at the Grammys together in 1991. Published reports at the time said while the entered and left together, both were more interested in other people than each other. However, that didn't spark a media frenzy.

Lisa Marie Presley (1994-96). Presley became Jackson's first wife in 1994. Originally meeting when they were children, their whirlwind romance last only four months before the couple married. Presley supported Jackson through rough times in his life—including accusations of child-molestation and drug addiction.

Debbie Rowe (1996-99). Rowe was Jackson's dermatological nurse in the 1980s helping treat his vitiligo—the condition that significantly lightened Jackson's skin. As his nurse, Rowe became a source of emotional support for Jackson and a confidant. The relationship didn't turn physical until 1996. Originally, the couple didn't plan to marry, but when Rowe became pregnant with Jackson's child, Michael Joesph Jackson Jr. (or Prince), Jackson's mother convinced the couple to marry. Rowe also gave birth to Jackson's second child—daughter Paris Michael Katherine Jackson—Rowe and Jackson divorced in 1999, and Rowe turned over parental rights to Jackson. In 2006, Jackson and Rowe began to share custody of Prince and Paris. Michael's Kids: Who Gets Custody?

Since Jackson's split from Rowe, there haven't been any publicly known women in his life. However, in 2002 Jackson announced the birth of his third child—son Prince Michael Jackson II (or Blanket). Blanket had been carried by an anonymous surrogate in Europe.

I read somewhere else that the eggs for the impregnation of Debbie Rowe weren't her eggs or his sperm, and both children with her were conceived that way. Everyone is talking bad abou there because she doesn't want the children? Why should she. They are not hers. She lives on a ranch and says her animals are her babies. Basically she rented out her uterus, the word womb sounds loving and cared for, bit she rented out her uterus for quite a bit of $$.
I think Michael's Mom is the one who should get custody of the kids, with the Nanny by her side. Who knows the kids better than their live in Nanny? I feel bad for them. Michael succeeded in keeping their faces hidden from the public, and I don't blame him, because as lots of celebs out their know...people would take a chance and kidnap a child in a heartbeat. As soon as Michael was gone, within the hour, his kids faces were plastered across newpapers and media everywhere. Then their are the MJ "haters" that love this type format so they can get on here and dog him out, and say horrible things. They need to remember, Michael was not found guilty of the crime of child molestation. If the parents really thought for one minute that Michael did that to their child, then settled out of court for an "undisclosed amount of money", then they are worse, that makes them guilty of pimping out there kid, if that's what they really believe. People can keep dogging him, but they can't hurt him anymore. No one really knows what happens after death, but if the spirit can come, then I hope he comes and haunts the ones that dogged him! They get on here and say things, but you know what? They ARE interested in him, otherwise they wouldn't be reading any of it.
RIP MJ
