Paris Jackson, daughter of the recently deceased Michael Jackson, was hospitalized on Wednesday for what is believed to be a suicide attempt. Later that afternoon, it was reported that she is in stable condition.
Jackson, 15, was taken to the hospital at approximately 2 a.m. Wednesday morning, after police received a 911 call at 1:39 am. Jackson was at her family home in Calabasas that she shared with her grandmother Katherine Jackson and her brothers Prince and Blanket.
TMZ reported that Paris’ hospitalization was related to a suicide attempt, and her mother Debbie Rowe, said that the teen had “a lot going on” prior to her hospitalization.
Jackson’s tweets made on the Tuesday before the alleged suicide attempt suggest that she was dealing with a depressed mood, and included lyrics from the Beatles song “Yesterday,” saying that “…all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they’re here to stay.”
Katherine Jackson spoke with the New York Daily News, confirming the hospitalization and saying, “She’s suffered with the loss of her father. But we don’t know what she was exposed to that precipitated this.”

“Being a sensitive 15 year-old is difficult no matter who you are,” said Rowe’s attorney Perry Sanders. “It is especially difficult when you lose the person close to you. Paris is physically fine and is getting appropriate medical attention.”
Michael Jackson’s children have been at the center of courtroom drama surrounding their father’s estate and the circumstances of his death over the last several years. Anonymous sources told both TMZ and Entertainment Tonight that Paris threw a fit earlier in the evening before she was hospitalized after being forbidden from attending a Marilyn Manson concert.
