Lawyers Reveal Michael Jackson's Niece Received $65 Million from Estate

According to a court filing made on October 9, 2025, lawyers overseeing the estate of the late Michael Jackson have revealed that his 27-year-old niece, Paris Jackson, has received around $65 million in benefits from the estate. The attorneys allege that this substantial payout would not have been possible without the restructuring of the estate that they executed.

The filing, obtained by E! News, states that Paris "has received roughly $65 million from the Estate in benefits," and that "She would have never received that had the Executors followed a typical playbook for an Estate like this one in July 2009." This suggests that the lawyers' efforts to reorganize the estate's management led to Paris receiving a much larger sum than she would have otherwise.
