Debbie Rowe denies fighting for kids’ custody to save reputation

Washington, July 16 (ANI): Michael Jackson’s ex-wife Debbie Rowe has dismissed reports that she’s fighting for custody of her two children for her reputation.
The New York Post had reported that Rowe’s alleged confidante Rebecca White had received an email from Jackson’s ex earlier this month indicating she had no intention of fighting for custody of the eldest two kids.
In an interview to Extra TV White said, “The motivation is money. I really have to be honest… If the children aren’t the ones she wants, what else will she gain from it? It’s not like she doesn’t love them. It’s not like she doesn’t want the best for them.
“But her life is different. The idea of being a mother to those children is something I don’t think she really wants… She can’t just sit back in the shadows and not say anything because then she will be looked at as the woman who gave up her children, and that’s a horrible thing to say… She had to do something to protect them in a way.”
However, Rowe’s lawyer has denied such allegations.
“Our firm has sent Ms. White a letter disputing the truth of her statements and demanding that she make retraction in order to avoid legal action,” Contactmusic quoted Rowe’s attorney as saying in a statement. (ANI)
