Jackson's Mother and Ex-Wife Plot Secret Custody Deal


Michael Jackson’s mother and ex-wife are working out a deal behind closed doors that would allow them to avoid a custody battle and guarantee that the popstar’s father could never get custody of the singer's three children.

Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine, and his ex-wife, Debbie Rowe, left, are reportedly in talks to make a deal on custody of the singer's three children. Sources told ABC News.com that Debbie Rowe, the former Mrs. Jackson and mother of his two oldest children, is willing to forego a fight for the children if their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, allows her more time to visit with the kids, and guarantees that their grandfather Joe Jackson , whom Michael accused of abuse, could never be named a guardian.
A custody hearing scheduled for today has been postponed until July 20.
"We are pleased that the child custody hearing has been continued over until July 20 to further our progress and allow us to privately and amicably resolve this most important matter in a dignified manner for the benefit of the children first and all involved," Katherine Jackson's lawyer, L. Londell McMillan, said in a statement to The Associated Press.
