(RTTNews) – Legendary singer Diana Ross is reportedly listed as the secondary guardian for the children of the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson. According to a new report from radaronline.com, the 67-year-old songstress has been a close family friend of the Jacksons and would take custody of Michael’s children if their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, dies.

“Diana has made no moves whatsoever to not fulfill her role that Michael intended for her. Michael didn’t trust anyone in his family besides his mother to raise the children. Michael loved Diana and chose her for a very specific reason,” a source close to the family told the site.

The source goes on to add that while Katherine is a supremely capable guardian for the children, Ross was named as a secondary guardian largely due to Katherine’s age.

“Katherine is a very doting, loving grandmother. She just isn’t getting any younger and that is why Michael named a second guardian,” the source adds.
