La Toya Jackson and her niece, Paris Jackson, shared a sweet family moment as La Toya showed her support for Paris’ latest music.
The Jackson family members were together at Paris’ album release party, where La Toya, 70, captured a private moment with her niece, 28, away from the crowd.
She later shared the interaction with her followers on social media.
The Sweet Moment
“Having a good time @ParisJackson Album Release Party last night! Found a nice quiet place to chat! Love the #music #thejacksons #parisjackson,” La Toya wrote.
In the photos and video, the aunt and niece can be seen embracing before sitting together and talking.
The simple moment quickly caught the attention of fans, many of whom praised La Toya for being there to celebrate Paris and her music.
“Why did this make me just a lil teary eyed?! So happy to see her auntie come out to support such a hard-fought and hard-won body of work for Paris,” one person wrote.
“Never change, @latoyajackson and keep on keeping your arms around your niece. She’s a tough cookie just like you are!” the fan added.
Another person praised La Toya’s relationship with Michael Jackson’s children, writing, “Latoya you have really made a difference in MJs kids lives. Just showing up at her show is really special.”
Other fans focused on the family connection between the two women.
“You can tell Latoya is the one who bring the family together,” one commenter wrote.
“Aw auntie and niece. The album is so good Paris. I’m so proud of her. I’m so glad you got to be there LaToya. This made my whole day,” another fan said.
“Jackson girls forever!!” another person wrote.
The moment also brought attention to La Toya’s longtime relationship with Paris.
She previously spoke about her late brother’s wishes for his daughter, explaining that Michael asked her to look out for Paris.
La Toya Previously Dished on Her Relationship With Paris
In a 2018 interview with Entertainment Tonight, La Toya recalled Michael telling her, “Okay, if something happens to me, make sure you watch over Paris, ’cause Paris has a personality. She loves the business, but I wanna make sure she’s okay.”
La Toya also spoke warmly about Paris’ character, saying her niece “has a good heart, which is really, really, really great because that’s hard to find… it’s hard to find in today’s society, in this world that we live in.”
Michael Jackson died in June 2009 at age 50.
Paris was 11 years old at the time. She and her brothers, Prince Jackson and Bigi Jackson, were raised largely out of the public eye following their father’s death.
Paris has since built her own career as a singer and musician. Her work has given her an identity separate from her famous family, while members of the Jackson family have continued to support her.
For La Toya, being there for Paris appears to be about more than simply attending an album celebration. Her latest post offered fans a glimpse of the close bond she shares with her niece — and the quiet family support behind the scenes.
