When Michael Jackson's wife Debbie Rowe signed away all parental rights to their two children in 2001, people were horrified.

But since the singer's death in 2009, it seems that she has been making an effort to forge a relationship with her estranged offspring.

According to Jermaine Jackson, he is pleased that his 15-year old niece Paris is developing a mother daughter bond with the dermatologist's nurse.

He told TMZ: "I think that's wonderful. The kids need their mum. I think it's great. That's their mother. That's wonderful. That's a good thing."

Debbie married to Michael between 1996 and 1999 and gave full custody of her two children with Michael, Prince and Paris, during their divorce proceedings in 1999.

She later took things one step further in 2001, and relinquished all parental rights to the children, who were just toddlers at the time.

However, after the singer's death in June 2009, Debbie, 54, reached an agreement with Michael's mother - who became the children's' legal guardian - for supervised visitation rights.

Debbie has reportedly developed an 'intense bond' with her daughter and the pair have been spending lots of time together in recent months.

The 'Bad' singer's ex-wife supported the teenager, who performed in a dance contest at her school in Los Angeles over the weekend, turning up with a bouquet of flowers.

Debbie also spent Paris' 15th birthday with her earlier this month.

In a recent interview for the Mail On Sunday's Event Magazine, Paris revealed that she had been shopping with her mother, an activity that her grandmother Katherine Jackson was approving of.

Paris said: 'When I'm with my mom, we don't really have security with us. Which is really nice.'

The Daily Mirror previously reported that Paris had found it 'easy' to bond with the skin nurse, and had been interested to know more about the dynamic of her relationship with her late father.

Debbie and Michael met when he was a patient at the specialist skin clinic she worked at when he was being treated for his chronic vitligo.

A friend said : 'Paris is very inquisitive and found Debbie easy to bond with.'

Meanwhile, it appears Debbie and Michael's son Prince is not yet ready to develop a relationship with his mother.

The 16-year-old budding TV presenter allegedly isn't interested in getting to know his birth mother, but she hopes that they will develop a natural connection much like she did with Paris.
