Prince Jackson Graduates From High School, Family Members Come to Support Him
Prince Jackson, son of the late Michael Jackson, recently graduated from high school and is onto the next chapter in his life.
According to Us Weekly, he graduated on May 29 from Buckley High School in Sherman Oaks, California, where other members of the famous Jackson clan, includindg Michael, attended.
Prince's grandmother, Katherine Jackson, and sister Paris Jackson along with other relatives joined him in his celebration.
"When they announced his name, the whole Jackson family stood up and cheered and whistled," an eyewitness said. "Prince was ecstatic as he crossed the stage and picked up his diploma."
Meanwhile, his dad's Neverland Ranch is up for sale listed at $100 million. The late star's ranch still has the train station, but there are no longer any animals or amusement park rides on the estate.
Prince graduated from high school with honors, ABC News reports. His cousin and co-guardian Tito "TJ" Jackson expressed his support via Instagram.
"Prince, you have grown into an incredibly special young man," TJ wrote on the post. "Words can't express how proud I am of you. I will ALWAYS be here to support you wherever life takes you. I love you!"
The King of Pop left behind three children, who have had trouble dealing with his death. Prince, Paris and Blanket moved in with their grandmother in 2009.
Prince and Paris attended Buckley High School following their father's death, though they were home schooled when he was alive.
Their grandmother temporarily lost guardianship back in 2012 when she fought for Michael's estate leading to co-guardianship with TJ.
Paris tried to commit suicide two years ago by slicing her wrists, according to TMZ. She spent a year in a Utah boarding school following the suicide attempt and has been treated by doctors.
