Omer Bhatti, the late King of Pop’s rumored love child, has revealed that he is not Michael Jackson’s son. However, he told reporters that the musician made him his “honorary” son after inviting him to move in with him years ago.
Bhatti, the 25-year-old Norway-native, has lived at Neverland Ranch for eight years. Rumors say Jackson fathered him during a one-night stand with his mom, Pia.
However, he denies all the rumors saying that there is biological link between them. He also said that the music legend was just his “best friend.”
Omer, who still lives in Norway, reveals that Jackson used to say that he was “like a son” to him and thinks that must be the reason for the love child rumors. He was also a guest of honor at Jackson’s memorial service in L.A. two weeks ago – sitting along with the pop legend’s closest relatives in the front row, another fact that fueled all the controversy.
“Michael always used to say I was like a son to him,” he said. “But my true parents are in Norway. The reason I was asked to sit with his family at the memorial service is because I was Michael’s closest friend – not because I am his son.”
