"La Toya Jackson has revealed that the family are concerned that Michael's two sons are not coping with their father's death.
She told The Mirror that all three children - Prince Michael, 12, Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and 7-year-old Prince Michael II, also known as Blanket - are having grief counselling.
However, the Celebrity Big Brother star said that Paris seems to be dealing with her heartache better than her brothers.
She stated: "Paris thinks and talks about her father all the time. She's doing very well, writes a lot and she wears his shirts every day. They still smell of him and it helps her feel close to him.
"Her bedroom is covered in posters of Michael and she watches tapes of him all the time. After he passed, the kids went up to the house to get whatever they wanted.
"Paris took anything with a picture of her father on and brought it back to her new room at my mother's house.
"She was so upset that she would never see her father on stage. She said, 'Now I'll never get the chance to see Daddy perform live'."
La Toya went on to say that Michael's eldest son is finding it harder to talk about his feelings.
She explained: "Prince just doesn't want to speak about it. He won't even watch the DVDs, he just walks right past the TV. It's too soon, too touching. I do worry about him very much."
The 53-year-old said that Michael's youngest son is also struggling to cope.
She commented: "Blanket is just a very sad, shy little boy. He cries, he really does cry. It's so painful for him. No one can bring his daddy back and it hurts so much.
"They all go to therapy and I truly hope Prince especially will be able to open up."
