Michael Jackson’s family have been paying tribute to the icon and the legend on the seventh anniversary of his tragic death.

The King Of Pop passed away aged 50 on June 25, 2009 at his home in Los Angeles.

Sharing a beautiful and black-and-white montage of photos on her Instagram, Paris Jackson wrote a moving message to her late father, saying: “7 years, rest in peace, my best friend in the entire universe. i love you more than anything. 

“things may be a little sh**ty in the press right now but everyone knows it's all bull and i swear on the family name i will protect you for as long as i live. there's no one like you, and there never will be. thank you for touching millions of hearts, but especially my own.”

The Jackson 5 also paid tribute to Michael at the San Diego County Fair in Del Mar, California, with Jermaine, Tito, Jackie and Marlon singing some of their iconic hits, including ‘I Want You Back’, and Michael’s ‘Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’.

7 years ago we lost one of our brightest lights and it has been a darker world ever since. #MJforever
