On an episode of ‘Growing Up Hollywood,” James DeBarge speaks on the alleged secret baby that he supposedly had with Janet Jackson. This has been rumored for a while. Story was that the two had a secret love child somewhere roaming around. In the episode, James’s daughter Kristina confronts him about a article she read that bought up the child and he once again confirmed it.
He said,
“I’m tired of the secrecy. I’m tired of the truth not coming forward, and people being a coward when it comes to it. And I thought it was wise for me to speak out now because it needs to be addressed.”
He went on to say he was not really in the loop when it came to the baby. He said,
“I was under the impression that there was no baby, and I wanted to believe it’s not true. But it is,”
Jackson and DeBarge were married back in 1984 but annulled a year after. Janet is now awaiting the arrival of her “first child” with her husband Wissam Al Man. Jackson hasn’t really been spotted much since she announced her pregnancy. No one really knows why but I’m sure all is well.
Check out what DeBarge had to say below.
