LONDON: Michael Jackson’s British bodyguard has launched a legal bid to prove that he is the biological father of the late singer’s youngest son.
Martial arts master Matt Fiddes, who became pals with the singer after guarding him on dozens of UK visits, is heading to the US to demand the right to see 10-year-old Blanket. And he has vowed to provide officials with a DNA sample so they can confirm his claims that he is the youngster’s real dad.
The 32-year-old claims he gave Jacko a sperm donation in a London hotel just a year before the lad, whose real name is Prince Michael II, was born in 2002.
He also says the King of Pop even once admitted to him that Blanket is his biological son.
Now Fiddes wants to get to know the boy, but he claims Jackson’s family has refused to speak to him or answer his letters since the megastar’s 2009 death at 50. So the fighter is heading to Los Angeles to lodge court papers.
“I am going to lodge my DNA and formally ask the Jacksons for access. I want visitation rights,” the Daily Star quoted him as saying.
“Michael is their father and I do not want that to change, but I want the children back in my life. The only way that’s going to happen is through legal action. I think Blanket is mine but I want final proof,” he said.
Fiddes revealed Jacko once admitted he was the dad, and the paternity was also confirmed by the singer’s Brit actor pal Mark Lester, best known for playing the lead in 60s musical flick Oliver!
Fiddes, who has three other children, flew out to comfort a dazed Jackson in November 2002, after he famously dangled then nine-month-old Blanket over a hotel balcony in Berlin.
“I sat there and asked the question: ‘Is Blanket my child?’ He said: ‘He’s my child, Matt, but I used your sperm to produce him,” he said.
But Matt says Jackson’s mum Katherine, 81, has done her best to block his desperate pleas to see the child, believing he is after money.
“Katherine’s worried we will come after the estate and will tell the kids the truth. But to me the truth is the big issue, and that’s why I want to take it further. I’m a self-made man, I don’t want or need their money,” said Matt, of Shirwell, north Devon.
“‘All I want is access if he’s my child, to take him out, and spend some time together. My mum is dying of cancer. I want her to see Blanket more than anything,” he added.

MJ is Blanket's Father to the Full Extent Literally by Law and Science as Well. Fiddes is NOT. Fiddes is a Gold Digger, Even IF He has Money, Money and Greed Make Bad People Want More. He is a Demon Trying to Hurt a Child that is Not Psychologically Mature Enough because He is a Child to Understand What Fiddes is Doing Nor Why Nor Able to Handle the Amount of Issues Fiddes Has. MJ never Fraternized with Staff never Crossed Them over into Anything Personal. Why Didn't He Ask Muscular Lou Ferrigno, His Long time Friend, Fiddes - NOT. Also, In Germany MJ was Filming with Bashir During that Time --There Were Three Camera Crews There One From Bashir, One MJ's and Another One and Several From German Companies, Bashir's Entourage and MJ's. HE WAS NEVER ALONE. Conversation Never Happened. Even if It Did, It Doesn't Mean in Terms of Science and the Law that Fiddes Would be The Bio Dad of Blanket, Even IF His Sperm was Used. The Verbage of the "Conversation" says MJ told Him that Blanket is MJ's Son, but that MJ used Fiddes Sperm. Translation, MJ's Sperm would be the Majority Percentage Determined to Make MJ Blanket's Bio Dad in Terms of the Law/Science/Biology and Any Other Donation Considered a Filter to Screen Out Genetic Problems Like Vitiligo Or Other Immunity Concerns Biologically, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO QUALIFY/QUANTIFY Fiddes as the Daddy. MJ would Not Do it Fiddes Way. And Also, Elsewhere its Says MJ offered Fiddes half million for Donation, that's Illegal Here in the US and Abroad and MJ didn't and wouldn't Break Laws Because He was Honest and Because it Could Jeopardize the Child and His Right to it. I knew MJ for 31 Years. Fiddes Should be Served with a Restraining Order and Also Looked into for Embezzlement, Why Did MJ FIRE Him? Hmmm,. Just Saying. Linda Adams, USA
