Paris Jackson is set to be enrolled at a boarding school for troubled teens, at a cost of £10 million, when she leaves hospital following her recent suicide bid.
The 15-rear-old has said she is ready to return home but her mother and paternal grandmother are keen for her to first make a full recovery and for her to be sent to the Diamond Ranch Academy in Utah. The pair are also desperate to shield her from the internet and social media, because they are convinced she will have a relapse if she reads cruel taunts about her and her late pop superstar dad Michael.
A source close to the family said: “While she’s there she can be around kids going through similar problems and concentrate on getting well again, without pressures from the outside world and all the negativity on the internet. The only stumbling block is the security situation.
“(The family) know there will be a lot of attention on Paris while she’s in residence and there’s a real danger obsessive fans might try to break in.”
Mother, Debbie Rowe, posted the following on her Twitter account to thank the public for their support:
‘My daughter has asked that I extend a huge thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers and support. (..) She is strong like her father.’
