Overview
- Tabloid photos show Debbie Rowe running errands in Palmdale in casual clothes and a horse-themed T‑shirt, providing one of the few recent public glimpses of the 67‑year‑old.
- Rowe lives privately on a Palmdale ranch where she breeds horses and has largely avoided publicity since her divorce from Michael Jackson.
- She formerly gave up parental rights after the couple’s split and has not been a regular presence in her children’s upbringing since the early 2000s.
- Rowe and daughter Paris Jackson rebuilt a relationship beginning around 2013, and Paris supported Rowe through a reported 2016 breast cancer treatment that was described as successful by 2017.
- Paris Jackson is separately pressing legal challenges against the estate’s executors and recently scored a court order returning $625,000 in bonuses paid to outside law firms, a ruling that could increase scrutiny of estate fees and distributions.
