The former nurse has tried to keep a low profile following Jackson’s untimely death last week but as rumours claiming she’s not the biological mother of their children continue to intensify she decided the time has come to speak out.
Rowe allegedly told a local reporter, “They are my flesh and blood. I’m going after my children. I am stepping up, I have to”
However, her lawyer Eric George said:
“Though Debbie herself has not spoken publicly about the custody proceedings since Michael's death, I came to learn this morning that she shared some of her thoughts late last night with a local reporter.
“I have no reason to doubt that what was reported from that conversation was accurately and ethically reported. But that said, it would be a distortion of the truth to allow that single snapshot from a single conversation to stand in the truth of Debbie's position on these sensitive matters.
“So once again, the truth is that Debbie has not reached a final decision concerning the pending custody proceedings.”
A custody hearing set for Monday has now been postponed until July 13.
