Oprah’s highly publicised interview with the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson’s mother, aired in the US last night.
The emotional interview saw Oprah speak in depth mainly to the matriarch of the Jackson family.
The wide-ranging interview took place at the Jackson’s Encino compound, and while it started out with Katherine, the duo were joined by Joe, Paris, Prince Michael and the exceeding shy Blanket, along with the other Jackson kids that live at the house.
Despite the hardship clearly evident in discussing her son’s life, Katherine didn’t shy away from the talking points about her son, and proceeded to handle every question thrown at her.
The majority of the interview discussed Michael’s death on June 25, and the life choices that led to that tragic day.
