Jackie and younger brother Michael Jackson share a moment

Joe Jackson, dad of the late pop star, Michael Jackson, stated yesterday, 25-year-old Omer Bhatti, is the fourth child of his late son. This contradicts what Bhatti stated last week. A DNA test is in order to determine true paternity.

Joe Jackson stated to Newsone.com, "Yes I knew he had another son, yes I did. He looks like a Jackson, he acts like a Jackson, he can dance like a Jackson. This boy is a fantastic dancer as a matter of fact. I don't know (if he will be the future of the Jacksons). I can't say that yet until I see it happen."

JACKSON'S FATHER CONFIRMS IDENTITY OF FOURTH CHILD

MICHAEL JACKSON's father JOE has confirmed the late King of Pop was the biological father of OMER BHATTI, the boy long rumoured to be his fourth child.

Speculation surrounding the relationship between Jackson and the 25-year-old dancer reached fever pitch after Bhatti was given a front row seat at the entertainer's Los Angeles memorial service in July (09).

Bhatti is said to have requested a DNA test to determine if Jackson was his dad, amid reports the singer fathered him after a one night stand in 1984.

Joe Jackson has now stepped in to end the long-standing rumours, noting the pair's striking similarities and insisting he's always known about his son's secret child.

He tells Newsone.com, "Yes I knew he had another son, yes I did. He looks like a Jackson, he acts like a Jackson, he can dance like a Jackson. This boy is a fantastic dancer as a matter of fact. I don't know (if he will be the future of the Jacksons). I can't say that yet until I see it happen."... 30 July 2009 19:16
