Omer Bhatti, the young Norwegian rumoured to be Michael Jackson’s ‘lovechild’ is indeed the singer’s biological child, Joe Jackson has confirmed. Bhatti, 25, gained worldwide fame when he was spotted sitting with the Jackson family at Michael’s recent memorial concert in Los Angeles, with insiders saying he was Michael’s child from a brief relationship in 1984. However, earlier this week Bhatti insisted he was simply “best friends” with Jackson. "Yes, I knew he had another son, yes I did," Joe Jackson told NewsOne/TVOne when asked about Bhatti’s relationship with Michael. "He looks like a Jackson, acts like a Jackson, can dance like a Jackson. This boy is a fantastic dancer."
