“Besides my mother’s beauty and her smarts, what I always wanted was her strength,” says Janet, who is very close to her mother, Katherine, 77, a devout Jehovah’s Witness. “It’s a very cold world, and to have gone through what she has had to experience, from having polio as a child to those things with my brother Michael, and then for my father to have had another child!” Janet pauses, angry. “I’ve been cheated on a lot,” she goes on, heatedly. “I know what that feels like and how that hurts the heart. But, I mean, to give us a half-sister. I can’t even fathom what that’s like for Mother. For her to stay with my father all these years and never abandon her kids, that’s true love.”

I found this article on her:


Jackson's Family Secrets Revealed
Friday, October 29, 2004

Michael Jackson's teen years have been profiled in books and movies. But until now, it's never been revealed that his parents, Katherine and Joseph, were nearly divorced when he was 15 years old.

According to legal documents obtained by this column, Katherine Jackson, disgusted by her husband's philandering, obtained a petition for divorce on March 9, 1973, and filed it with the Los Angeles County clerk.

According to several people I've spoken with in the last few days, Katherine Jackson was finally convinced to rescind the divorce papers at the urging of elders at her Jehovah's Witnesses church.

Katherine also attempted to divorce her husband in or around 1979, but again was persuaded to drop the action, my sources said.

One motivation for Katherine's unhappiness, at least in the second instance, was the revelation that her husband had fathered a love child with his mistress.

That child, a girl named Joh'Vonnie Jackson, is now 30, lives with Joseph Jackson in Las Vegas and for some time worked at that city's McCarran International Airport. Joh'Vonnie's mother is Cheryl Terrell.

Joseph Jackson's extramarital affairs, including one with a Motown Records assistant named Gina Sprague, have been detailed in a TV movie about the Jackson family as well as in several books, including one by the Jacksons' daughter La Toya.

In her 1990 memoir "Growing Up in the Jackson Family," La Toya wrote that during the tumultuous early '70s, when the Jackson 5 were busy accumulating hits and touring all over the world, her mother never considered divorce. The papers indicate otherwise.

"That was all in La Toya's book," Jackson's spokeswoman told me yesterday and promised to get back to me.

Joh'Vonnie Jackson, according to my sources, has held several positions at McCarran Airport, including working as a baggage handler. She is not included in Jackson family events and has never visited Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch.

When the Jackson siblings appear in court together to show solidarity for Michael, Joh'Vonnie is not present. As far as I can tell, neither Michael nor Janet has ever referred to Joh'Vonnie in any interviews.

On Katherine Jackson's 1973 divorce petition, she listed the five of her nine children who were still minors at the time: La Toya, Marlon, Michael, Steven (aka Randy) and Janet.

Rebbie, Tito, Jackie, and Jermaine were all over 18 by that time. Joh'Vonnie, the youngest child of Joseph Jackson, is eight years the junior of Janet, who was born in 1966.

Even though neither of Katherine Jackson's divorce petitions was ever finalized, the couple do not live together, insiders say.

Katherine spends most of her time in Encino, Calif., and Joseph lives in Las Vegas. His wife was not present this year when he had his annual birthday bash in Sin City.

I don't understand why they dont divorce, if they are not even living together or celebrating important days together.
To me that seems strange....I think. in a situation like this, it's best for both to divorce and go on with their lives seperately.

why do you think they are not living together?

That's why
And everyone knows Joe is in Vegas most of the time. That's more or less common knowledge

And what is he doing in Vegas?

Why should people get divorced just because they don't live together?
And birthdays are not that special.

It's not that they should get divorced because of those reasons they should because it's obvious how unhappy Katherine is in that marriage. She's in a love-less marriage where she is always being cheated on.

Right.....

It's not fair to anyone anywhere to live like that. Everyone deserves to be happy all the time....and when you can do something to make your life better then I dont see a reason not to
