Debbie Rowe appeared at critical turning points in the life of Michael Jackson and helped him avoid trouble, a former adviser and publicist has revealed.
Stuart Backerman in a new television interview pointed out that Rowe had come to the late star’s aid on more than one occasion.
When he was asked whether Rowe would be the best person to raise the children, Backerman said: “To tell you the truth, you have to go back in time.
“Debbie came to Michael’s aid on a number of occasions. In two particular cases, she was critical.
“After the (journalist) Martin Bashir interview, Debbie came out and said Michael would never harm a child, and that mitigated the Martin Bashir frenzy that occurred at that time.
“Number two is that during the trial of the century, when Michael was charged with child molestation, Debbie was a prosecution witness and she came forth and really blew the prosecution case out of the water because she said Michael was a wonderful person, that Michael would never harm a child.
“That Michael was fantastic with his kids and that, to many people, put it over the top in terms of the jury deciding not guilty.”
Backerman said he had not had contact with Rowe since Jackson died suddenly on June 25.
He said Rowe came to Jackson’s aid in a number of cases, after Jackson made his last known will in 2002, adding: “And so she cares for Michael. Michael’s will came out, that was prepared, and in that will, Michael made it very clear he wanted his mother to be the custodial parent for the children.
“And I would be very surprised if Debbie would want to stir the pot – create a big scene – so to speak, and a messy court case, given that she really did care for Michael. I don’t think she wants to go against the family.”
