Rowe seeks access to Jackson children

MICHAEL Jackson’s ex-wife Deborah Rowe is seeking visitation rights with their children, according to court documents.

The couple married in Sydney, Australia, in 1996 after they announced that Rowe, who worked as a nurse for Jackson’s plastic surgeon, was carrying the pop star’s child.

The marriage ended in 1999 after Rowe filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. Their two children, Paris, who is five or six, and Prince Michael, who is eight, live with Jackson.

Rowe gave up all parental rights in 2001, but applied for custody of the children two years later. Retired Superior Court Judge Stephen Lachs, who presided over the case, denied custody but also voided the order terminating Rowe’s parental rights.
