Insiders Claim Surrogate Is Carrying Janet Jackson’s Baby

James Debarge still can’t let go of the possibility that Janet Jackson may have hidden a pregnancy from him back in 1984 before the annulment of their marriage.

The troubled singer penned an open letter to his ex that was published by RadarOnline:

“I don’t want to live the rest of my life not knowing the truth!” DeBarge wrote. “I know you have enough money to keep this secret from the whole world. The one thing I learned from you and your family is how much money can buy and keep a secret.”

“I swear, I won’t cause you any trouble,” he wrote to Janet in his impassioned plea. “I don’t want any money. I just want her to know I’m her father!”

Now 52 years-old, Debarge was married to Jackson from 1984 to 1985 before the couple annulled their union. For years there have been whispers that she hid a pregnancy in the 80’s and Debarge claims someone claiming to be their daughter reached out to him.

“She spoke to me by e-mail and everything she said was so accurate,” he revealed. “It was only things that Janet and I know.”

“Janet has always kept things hidden, so none of this should surprise anyone,” dished a source.

Interesting… So we’re guessing Debarge doesn’t have Jackson’s number and that’s why he’s writing open letters in the tabloids???

Also, does Janet really NEED to be part of the conversation? Can’t Debarge and the kid call Maury and get it worked out without her?

In the meantime the rumor mill is claiming Janet isn’t actually carrying the baby she and billion dollar hubby are expecting right now.

Details on that on the flip.

The primary basis of the rumor of Jackson using a surrogate seems to be that she’s only been seen once during her pregnancy, in July. Now people are saying the April 6 announcement she made about she and her husband “planning our family,” and cancelling the tour on “doctor’s orders,” was just a cover up for poor ticket sales (especially because of shows called off in London).

“This was all about saving face,” snitched a Jackson family insider.

“The baby thing was just an excuse to give her the time for a surrogate to secretly have the child for her! We all know she’s too old to have a baby!” tattled the family insider.

Do you think they’re right? She definitely has the money to pay for the best care and we’ve published plenty of stories before about women carrying babies later on in life. Why fake the funk?
