Then, in January 2025, she revealed another part of her story.
She described herself publicly as an alcoholic and heroin addict while celebrating five years without drugs or alcohol.
Her message focused not simply on quitting substances, but on everything sobriety had allowed her to experience again—music, relationships, grief, laughter and ordinary moments of life.
A year later, she celebrated six years sober and acknowledged that recovery hadn’t made life perfect. She also spoke openly about living with PTSD, OCD and treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.
Her Father’s Death Remains Deeply Personal
Paris has also spoken publicly about Michael Jackson’s death.
In 2017, she said she believed her father had been murdered and described his death as a “setup.”
That remains her personal belief, not an established finding about what happened.
Michael Jackson died in 2009 after receiving propofol and other medications, and his physician Conrad Murray was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter.
