<br />
Even before Manish launched his fashion label, he gifted one of his own creations to the pop star which the latter wore to an awards show, the designer recalled.<br />
<br />
Sharing an old picture with Jackson on Instagram, Manish reminisced his fanboy moment and wrote, "Years ago before I had launched Manish Malhotra label. I had the honour of meeting the great Micheal Jackson." He continued, "I had designed a smart cut sherwani with trousers and a shawl with Indian Embroidery art .. not only did he wear the outfit he also thanked me on stage at the Bollywood Awards USA which became a memorable moment for me."</p>

The life and legacy of Michael Jackson: Remembering 'King of Pop' on his 10th death anniversary

<p>In the months following pop icon Michael Jackson's shock death on June 25, 2009, his inner circle found themselves thrust into the spotlight.</p>

<p>Ten years on, as the late King of Pop faces lurid allegations of pedophilia from men he kept close as youths, here's a look at what's become of the rest of the eccentric bunch surrounding MJ.</p>

<p><strong>Children</strong><br />
Jackson went to great lengths to shield his three children -- Michael Joseph "Prince" Jr (22), Paris (21) and Prince Michael II, better known as ' Blanket' &nbsp;(17) -- from the paparazzi, often putting masks on them in public.<br />
<br />
Since his death the two older children have slowly started embracing the limelight, and are active on social media.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The eldest son has said he neither sings nor dances but still entertains hopes of a showbiz career, founding King's Son Productions in 2016.<br />
Paris has made several awards show appearances, modeled for labels including Calvin Klein and Chanel, and along with her boyfriend forms the folk-rock duo The Soundflowers.<br />
<br />
She has struggled with mental health and admitted trying to kill herself in 2013. But she slammed reports she attempted suicide again earlier this year -- shortly after the release of the bombshell documentary accusing her father of child sex abuse.<br />
<br />
Blanket, who was born to an unnamed surrogate and now prefers to go by "Bigi," is still in high school and has mostly laid low as he comes of age.<br />
Perhaps his most&nbsp;famous world appearance was in 2002 when he was still an infant -- and his father dangled him over the balcony of a chic Berlin hotel.</p>

<p><strong>Parents</strong><br />
Joe Jackson -- known as the demanding patriarch of the Jackson clan, with whom Michael had a strained relationship -- died on June 27, 2018 at age 89.<br />
He launched his family's dynasty as manager of The Jackson 5 sibling group, steering at times the careers of Michael and daughter Janet.<br />
<br />
Often criticized as a stringent taskmaster, Joe was left out of Michael's will and failed to win bids for compensation.<br />
<br />
Katherine Jackson, Michael's now 89-year-old mother, gained custody of his three children following his death and is a beneficiary of the family trust.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Siblings</strong><br />
Michael's sister Janet, 53, is a pop icon in her own right and earlier this year nabbed a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.<br />
<br />
An artist whose synth-driven sound came to define the cutting edge of New York's club scene in the late 1980s, Janet in recent years has continued to tour and focus on charity efforts.&nbsp;She gave birth to a son in January 2017.<br />
<br />
Michael's brothers -- Jackie, Tito, Marlon, Jermaine and Randy -- have been among the most vocal backers of his legacy despite the troubling allegations against him.<br />
<br />
They have continued to tour and record in various combinations.<br />
<br />
Sisters La Toya, 63, and Maureen, 69, have had minor singing careers, with the former taking a turn on a number of reality television shows.<br />
<br />
The siblings were left out of Michael's will -- a subject of much legal wrangling -- with the estate divvied out to charity, his mother and his children.</p>

<p><strong>Exes</strong><br />
Debbie Rowe -- a nurse and Michael's second wife, with the pair marrying in 1996 -- is the mother of the singer's eldest children but was largely absent while Michael was alive.<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
Since his death she struck a deal with his mother for some visits with the kids.<br />
<br />
Lisa Marie Presley -- the daughter of Elvis, who wed Michael in 1994 -- has long denied that her short-lived marriage to the popstar was a cover-up to revive his image following pedophilia accusations, as many reports suggested.<br />
<br />
A musician, she has married and divorced four times, including to actor Nicolas Cage and guitarist Michael Lockwood, and is a mother of four.</p>

<p>"I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much," she wrote on MySpace after Michael's death.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Doctors</strong><br />
Conrad Murray, 66, administered the anesthetic propofol to Jackson in a dose that ultimately triggered the singer's cardiac arrest and untimely death.<br />
He was found guilty in 2011 of involuntary manslaughter after a highly publicized trial. Murray was released from California prison two years before his four-year sentence finished on good behavior.<br />
<br />
He has since maintained his innocence but lost medical licenses in several states, and maintains a low profile.<br />
<br />
Arnold Klein, Jackson's longtime dermatologist and friend, died in 2015 at age 70.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
The 'King of Collagen' &nbsp;popular among A-listers treated Jackson for the skin disorder vitiligo. Rumors swirled that donated sperm was used to father Jackson's eldest children -- their mother Rowe worked in his clinic -- but were never confirmed.<br />
<br />
<strong>Lawyers</strong><br />
Jackson's siblings have complained of the management of his estate, which was entrusted to entertainment lawyer John Branca and the late superstar's lawyer, John McClain.<br />
<br />
The co-executors are nevertheless credited with transforming Michael's hundreds of millions of dollars in debt into assets worth more than $1 billion.<br />
