Janet Jackson has spent thousands of pounds to make Christmas special for her late brother 'King of Pop' Michael's children.
The singer, who is the younger sister of the 'Thriller' star, has insisted on making Christmas Day a "fun" time for his daughter Paris, 12 and son Prince Michael I, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, also known as 'Blanket', Female First reported.
"It was to be a quiet, sombre holiday this year but Janet has stepped in to make it just like Michael did - fun. Michael loved Christmas. He was like a big kid and now Janet has taken that on," a source said.
"She must have spent thousands on trees, decorations and the kind of toys Michael would have love to be fooling around with on Christmas morning," the source added.
The pop icon died on June 25 from drug overdose aged 50 and his family had initially planned to have a more low-key day.
"Christmas is especially significant for the family this year as the first with Michael and the fact Christmas Day is exactly six months since his death," the source added.
Since losing their father, the trio have been looked after by Michael's 79-year-old mother Katherine, who is their legal guardian, family members and nannies.
