A TV station says the mother of Michael Jackson's two eldest children wants custody of them.
KNBC in Los Angeles says in a report Thursday that Debbie Rowe intends to seek custody of 12-year-old Prince Michael and 11-year-old Paris Michael Katherine.
In a telephone interview that was not broadcast, Rowe also tells the station she plans to seek a restraining order to keep Jackson's father Joe away from the children.
Michael Jackson's will named his mother Katherine Jackson as the guardian of his three children, including a child born to a surrogate mother.
Rowe says she would like to keep the children together, but the youngest is not hers.
A guardianship hearing is scheduled Monday.
Calls by The Associated Press to Rowe's attorney Marta Almli were not immediately returned.
