Michael Jackson's three children will appear in an upcoming A&E reality series about Jackson's brothers, even though Jackson's sister Rebbie, who reportedly has been the primary caregiver for Prince, Paris and Blanket, feels her late brother would "spin in his grave if he knew his kids would be on this show," a source tells Us Weekly.
The series has been in the works since well before Jackson's death in June, and was originally going to focus on the Jackson brothers -- Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy -- as they recorded a new album and prepped for a tour. But there wasn't much interest in the project until after Michael died. Funny that.
The new series will also follow the family as it grapples with Jackson's death, including footage of the three children whom Michael fiercely protected from the prying cameras during his lifetime. Rebbie has refused to be in the series, and mom Katherine, the legal guardian of the three kids "is just going along with things," according to the source.
Executive producer Jodi Gomes tells Us Weekly that the family will come off well in "The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty," set to air in December. "They've done a great job opening up about losing a brother." Well, presumably they're getting paid handsomely to do so, so spare us the high praise.
