Debbie Rowe and the “Sham Marriage” to Michael Jackson
The only thing sadder than the sudden death of a loved one is drama that soon circulates without the person being able to defend themselves. That is the case now with Debbie Rowe, the former wife of Michael Jackson and surrogate mother to his two children, whom she now claims are not biologically his.
Rowe, who married Jackson at the Sheraton Hotel Sydney in November 1996, said she was artificially inseminated by an anonymous donor and likened herself to one of the thoroughbred mares she now keeps on her California ranch.
“I was just the vessel. It wasn’t Michael’s sperm,” Rowe told News of the World.
“I got paid for it, and I’ve moved on. I know I will never see my children again.”
