Prince Michael "Blanket" Jackson II is Michaels' youngest son at 17 years old. He was recently at the LA premiere of the TV series "True Blood" final episode and spoke to reporters saying that it is still "tough" coping with the lost of his famous father.
Before Michael's death, Prince told that they were planning on a trip to London where Michael was supposed to hold his comeback concert "This Is It Tour" at London's O2 arena but had a cardiac arrest three weeks before his scheduled concert.
Prince said: "My dad always said he loved London. He really wanted to go there and show what he could do. He was looking forward to showing us around."
"It's tough. This will be the fifth anniversary of his death. Yeah... We want to keep my dad's legend alive. He was the best father anybody could have. He raised us the right way and there is nothing anyone can do to make us forget about him. He was always concerned about humanity. He helped many charities. In his songs his message was simple - love. We will continue to spread his message," Prince added.
Thousands of fans will gather from around the globe to pay tribute to the King of Pop by holding candlelight vigils.
Meanwhile, the Michael Jackson Estate runs Michael's affairs on behalf of his mother and three children, reported earning over $700 million since his death according to a new book titled "Michael Jackson, Inc.: The Rise, Fall and Rebirth of a Billion-Dollar Empire" authored by Zack Greenburg and was released early this month.
"Michael Jackson is making more money now, five years after his death, than he had been since the prime of his career," said Greenburg.
