Michael Jackson’s father is now an ally to his son’s estate after once being its archenemy, claiming that the estate was robbing members of his family. Remembering back, Michael cut his father out of his will along with his brothers and sisters, igniting a legal battle in which his father claimed the will was fraudulent. However, some recent events have changed Joe’s tune—the estate paid his medical bills in 2015 after he had a stroke, the Michael Jackson documentary produced by the estate portrayed him in a favorable light, and he came to believe that the estate was taking excellent care of Katherine and Michael’s three children.
