Michael Jackson dad blames wife for death

Joe Jackson has reportedly revealed that he blames his wife Katherine for his son Michael's death.

The former manager also claimed that he could have done more to prevent the death of the popstar.

Speaking to the News Of The World, he said: "Katherine was weeping uncontrollably and highly upset. But I didn't give her a hug because I was mad at her crying.

"I said, 'If you had listened to me, Michael would be living now'. I kept thinking about the times I had stood in front of her saying something was wrong.

"I couldn't bottle up my feelings. Katherine didn't say a word - I had to get away from her. If she'd done what I asked, Michael would be here today. I am incensed with her. She could have made a difference.

"In Michael's final months alive I said to her, many times, that I couldn't get through to him - and that she needed to help her son."

However, Jackson, 80, also admitted: "I tried to help Michael, but I feel I could have been more aggressive in getting access to him."
