November 26, 1994: Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley spend Thanksgiving at Havenhurst, Encino, with the Jackson family
“His normal was a side that no one saw. His mom would say, "He told you that stuff?" and Janet would say, "I’ve never heard him talk about anything like that." I wished that he would show that side more. He didn't really talk to his brothers much at that point, and I think they were surprised that our relationship was legit. But they thought it was really cool.
My mom was very comfortable around Michael's family. She loved having dinner at Hayvenhurst with them.”
— Lisa Marie Presley and Riley Keough, from “From Here to the Great Unknown” (2024)
“I only witnessed rare glimpses of this marriage because they were so wrapped up in each other. My previous concerns about him being alone-surrounded by professional advisers or filling the void with random people evaporated. Now he had someone very real, firm and big-hearted, who wasn't afraid of the vultures around him.
I laughed at media suggestions that they were "faking it" because we all knew in the family the intensity of their relationship and how they always wanted to be together. Michael's joy couldn't have been faked. The intimacy you see in the video for “You Are Not Alone” was art imitating life; a sweet glimpse as to how easy they were with one another and how they liked to laugh. Reports that we "loathed" our brother's new wife could not have been further from the truth: she was only ever embraced and there was never one iota of doubt that she had Michael's best interests at heart. She grew particularly close to Janet and Rebbie. When my sisters spent time with Lisa Marie and heard her speak about Michael, they always came away saying the same thing: "That girl is crazy about him!"”
— Jermaine Jackson, from “You Are Not Alone - Michael: Through a Brother's Eye” (2011)
