Michael Jackson‘s daughter Paris Jackson and son Bigi Jackson (formerly known as Blanket) attended their uncle Tito Jackson‘s funeral on Monday in Glendale, California.
The 26-year-old singer and 22-year-old film buff were spotted among family members including their aunt La Toya Jackson, 68, uncle Marlon Jackson, 67, and cousins Jaafar, 28, and Jermajesty, 24.
Paris wore a solemn expression on her face as she paid her respects in a black dress, black pantyhose, and black boots with a block heel.
For his part, Bigi wore a white shirt, black tie, and black suit with his long, dark hair parted down the middle and tucked behind his ears.
Kimora Lee Simmons, 49, was also at the gathering, which took place more than a month after Tito suffered a fatal heart attack on September 15 at age 70.

Taking to her Instagram Story after Tito’s death, Paris shared a throwback photo of him and her late father — who died in June 2009 — and wrote, ‘Rest in transition Uncle Tito.’
Meanwhile her older brother Prince, 27, shared a family photo on social media which included several members of the famous family surrounding matriarch Katherine.
He captioned it: ‘Love you forever Poppa T.’
Tito’s son TJ commented: ‘He always spoke so highly [of] you, Prince, and was so proud of the man you have become and your love for family. Thank you for being such a great nephew to him.’
Tito Jackson told his friend Terry Harvey Maltbia he ‘couldn’t breathe’ and ‘wasn’t feeling good’ moments before he was rushed to a New Mexico hospital where he later died of a heart attack.
Maltbia, who is also Jackson’s business associate, told DailyMail.com that he and the singer were in Gallup, New Mexico and stopped for food before getting back on the road and heading to Jackson’s ranch in Oklahoma.
Maltbia, Jackson and another friend, Ronald Balfour, were on a road trip to California, where the trio planned to pick up Jackson’s vintage cars from his home.
‘We just got done eating turkey and chicken, laughing and talking,’ Maltbia said. ‘We were putting the top on the convertible because it started raining. That’s when Tito came back on the passenger side window and said, “My chest is hurting. Can you help Ronnie to finish the top?”‘

Michael and Tito’s pop star sister Janet Jackson, 58, broke her silence on her the latter’s death on October 15, what would have been his 71st birthday.
Taking to Instagram Stories, the singer uploaded a black and white childhood snap of the siblings and wrote: ‘May you rest in eternal peace. I miss you so much!’
For her part, La Toya also marked her older brother’s birthday with a tribute post.
It was captioned, ‘Happy Heavenly Birthday Tito! I will always love you!’
Tito is survived by his nine grandchildren as well as his three sons — Taj, 51, Taryll, 49, and TJ, 46 — from his 16-year marriage to Delores ‘Dee Dee’ Martes, which ended in 1988.
