London, July 13 (ANI): Michael Jackson’s 11-year-old daughter Paris wrapped a necklace around her father’s wrist as he lay in his open coffin, the singer’s elder sister La Toya has revealed.
La Toya, 53, saw Paris’ heartbreaking act during the family’s private viewing of his body at the Forest Lawn Cemetery.
“Paris told me, ‘The heart is in two pieces. I want one half to go to Daddy and I will wear the other half forever’,” the Mirror quoted La Toya as saying.
“She carefully wrapped it around his wrist and said, ‘Daddy this is for you. On Daddy, it will be blue because he is cold. On me, it’s purple. He’s so cold, he is so cold’,” she added.
Paris purchased the broken heart necklace, which changes colour in different temperatures, after the King of Pop died and wore it when she delivered her emotional tribute at his memorial service.
La Toya also revealed that Paris got some coloured stones and decorated Michael’s body with them.
“His lips were slightly swollen from the autopsy and Paris asked, ‘Who did that to Daddy?’ I told her it was because he had passed,” she said. (ANI)
