Michael Jackson's three children will not star on a forthcoming reality show about his family for the A&E network.

The cable station had commissioned a one-hour special featuring siblings Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy prior to the popstar's death as a possible pilot for the now-titled The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty.

Producer Jodi Gomes later stated that the potential series will include unseen footage of the King Of Pop.

A representative for A&E told E! that rumours about the family arguing over the participation of Prince Michael, 12, Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and 7-year-old Prince Michael II are not true.

"[The kids] are not part of the show," the spokesperson said.

A Los Angeles judge overseeing the guardianship of the children recently declared that they are "doing wonderfully" living with their grandmother Katherine.

The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty is scheduled to air in December.
