MJ’s kids get hefty ‘pocket money’ rise
January 16th, 2010 - 1:51 pm ICT by ANI
London, Jan 16 (ANI): Michael Jackson’s kids have been provided with a hefty rise in their pocket money after it was claimed that they could not live on ‘just’ 45,000 pounds a month.
A judge has agreed to increase the pocket money by 10,000 pounds to keep help youngsters lead a lifestyle they are used to.
His ruling shows Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, known as Blanket, have inherited their superstar father’s taste for splashing out.
According to the court papers, lawyers acting for the children appealed to increase the amount to 55,000 pounds a month, reports the Daily Star.
They had argued that the current sum paid to Jacko’s mum Katherine, 80, was not enough to make ends meet.
Los Angeles Judge Mitchell Beckloff was asked to increase “the family allowance” because the current sum could not maintain their lifestyle. (ANI)
