Woman claims to be Janet Jackson s secret child
Los Angeles March 15 (IANS) A woman named Tiffany Whyte has claimed she is a secret child of singer Janet Jackson and her first husband James DeBarge.
Whyte claims the former couple had her during their marriage in the mid-1980s.
I ve been kept a secret (for) a very long time. I want people to know the truth Whyte who hails from Philadelphia told radaronline.com.
In 2012 DeBarge 53 claimed that he and Jackson had given a child up for adoption before their split in 1985. However the singer never publicly commented on the scandal.

Whyte said that Jackson has been denying her for many years.
She said she waited for 31 years for Jackson and revealed she first came to believe she was Jackson s daughter roughly seven years ago when she was approached by a woman claiming to be the singer.
