Nanny: 'Family after Jackson's money'

Michael Jackson's nanny has said that one member of the late singer's family asked her where he kept his money only hours after his death.

According to the News Of The World, Grace Rwaramba was in London when she heard that the star passed away after suffering a heart attack at his home.

Before flying back to Los Angeles to care for Jackson's three children, she reportedly received a phone call from one of his relatives inquiring about the whereabouts of his cash.

Rwaramba told the newspaper: "The [relation] said, 'Grace, you remember Michael used to hide cash at the house? I'm here. Where can it be?'

"I told them to look in the garbage bags and under the carpets. But can you believe that? They just lost Michael a few hours ago and already one of them is calling to know where the money is. They also told me the children were crying and asking about me. They can't believe their father died."

The Uganda-born nanny added that she was "really distraught" for Jackson's kids - Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Blanket.

"Michael hadn't been eating and the kids have been so scared for him. Now the youngest has been saying, 'Why daddy?' God should have taken me, not him'."
