(ThyBlackMan.com) Janet Jackson’s separation from Wissam Al Mana dovetailed almost perfectly with Katherine Jackson’s extended trip to London … and it looks a lot less like she went because she was afraid of her nephew. Janet’s baby was born January 3, and Katherine left L.A. 3 weeks later for London. Based on what recent reports she got on a plane on the heels of Janet’s separation.
TMZ sources say Janet Jackson put Katherine up in a London hotel and foot the bill. Katherine stayed in London for 2 months, returning to L.A. March 30th under the watchful eye of daughter Rebbie, who was also in London with her for a time during Katherine’s visit.
Sources connected with some of Katherine’s children claim Katherine went to London because she feared her nephew Trent, who’s now in the middle of a nasty legal/family fight in which there are allegations he stole from Katherine and abused her something he strongly denies.
Sources connected with Trent believe Katherine wasn’t even aware allegations were being made against Trent, and was distracted by the baby and Janet Jackson’s separation. They say the only reason she returned was because the handwriting was on the wall and the judge was about to throw out the case against Trent unless she returned. The sources say Jermaine and others realized she needed to come back.
Katherine has not returned to her Calabasas home she’s been staying with daughter Rebbie.
Jackson Jackson postponed her Unbreakable world tour in April last year shortly before announcing that she was expecting. “My husband and I are planning our family, so I’m going to have to delay the tour,” she explained in a Facebook video message. “Please, if you can try and understand that it’s important that I do this now. I have to rest up, doctor’s orders! But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can.”
She kept a low-profile during her pregnancy, debuting her baby bump in September. “Janet is super excited. She’s doing great,” a source told Us at the time. “Janet Jackson feels really strong and is just so excited for the baby to come. She feels like this is one of the best things to ever happen to her, she says. She’s really excited to become a mom.”
Now with new recent murmurs of a split, sources say ,” They’re both busy people but determined to be good parents, even if they’re apart. It’s amicable and Eissa will stay with his mother, who is basing herself in London.”
An insider said at the time: “Janet Jackson and her baby are doing well. She has hired help at home and her husband been with her through it all. It was a difficult pregnancy but she is very blessed and has a healthy baby. She has great doctors. A select few have seen her baby. She is so excited to be a mom. She is totally in love. She is taking time to just be with her baby at this time and that’s all she really wants. Working out will come, but she is taking it easy at this time.”
