Michael Jackson’s sons Prince, 24, & Blanket, 19, resurface in rare photos after late singer is slammed by sister Janet
MICHAEL Jackson’s sons Prince, 24, and Blanket, 19, have resurfaced in rare photos, after the late singer was slammed by his sister Janet.
The Thriller singer’s sons have been known to keep a low profile and stay out of the spotlight.
In photos exclusively obtained by The Sun, Prince and Blanket were recently spotted as they prepared to board a flight in Los Angeles.
Prince was accompanied by his rarely seen girlfriend, Molly Schirmang.
The couple- who both hid their faces with face masks- kept close as they were seen walking through the airport and sitting together in the terminal.
Prince looked comfortable as he wore a black T-shirt and hid his long hair under a black bandana.
Meanwhile, Blanket - who now goes as Bigi - looked all grown up with a full beard.
He also dressed casually in a black hoodie as he sipped on an iced coffee at the airport.

In addition to Prince, Michael was also the father to daughter Paris, 23, with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, 63.
The identity of Blanket’s mother is unknown, as he was born via surrogate.
Michael passed away in 2009 at the age of 50 following a combined drug intoxication.
JANET'S CLAIMS
His sons made the rare appearance shortly after their aunt Janet, 55, made shocking claims about Michael in her new tell-all documentary.
During her new Lifetime doc, Janet discussed the "scrutiny" that she faced as the younger sister of an icon.
She claimed: "There were times when Mike used to tease me and call me names. Pig, horse, s**t, or hog, cow.
“He would laugh about it, and I’d laugh too, but then there was somewhere down inside that it would hurt.
“When you have somebody say you’re too heavy, it affects you.”
DEALING WITH MICHAEL
She later admitted being part of a famous family welcomed "a great deal of scrutiny" into her life.
Janet found herself wrapped up in her brother's endless court battles and media frenzies, despite leading completely "separate lives."
The star admitted: “It was frustrating for me. We have our own separate lives and even though he’s my brother, that has nothing to do with me.
“But I wanted to be there for him, to support him as much as I possibly could.”
Michael faced a series of child sexual abuse allegations beginning as early as 1993.
His actions had an impact on Janet's career, as Coca-Cola decided to back out from a partnership she had secured at the time of Michael's scandal.
KEPT AWAY
In another segment from the self-titled four-part doc, Janet claimed she had been "blocked" from seeing Michael on set of their music video for Scream.
She said that being separated during the production was "tough" and claimed Michael’s team made it hard for her to even see him.
Speaking of the production process, Janet said: “It was his song and I was there to support him.
"Michael shot nights. I shot days. His record company would block off his set so that I couldn't see what was going on."
She continued: "They didn't want me on set.
