It's not quite Neverland, but the all-singing-all-dancing Jackson clan is leaving California for a holiday home in the heart of the English countryside.
Tito Jackson, 54, has rented a spacious five-bedroom barn conversion in the Devonshire town of Appledore in South West England and will be joined by his sons Taj, 34, Taryll, 32, and T.J., 29, who make up the band 3T, as well as his superstar Jackson Five siblings.
Last month, Tito revealed he was house-hunting in the area, saying, "My family love North Devon and the wonderful countryside and friendly people, I'm really looking forward to buying a home here. Michael likes it here too, as no one bothers him."
Michael and Janet, brother Jermaine and parents Joseph and Katherine are expected to fly out to visit Tito at the $10,000-a-month rental, and are all expected to appear in a proposed reality show chronicling the showbiz family's move to the U.K.
Tito's bodyguard, Matt Fiddes, 28, who lives in the nearby Devonshire town of Barnstaple, has confirmed the move.
"They love North Devon and they'll be moving into the rented house during the first week of May," he said.
"They get no hassle and they've been blown away by the peace and beauty of the area when they've stayed."
If the move goes according to plan, the Jacksons may purchase land in the area with a view to building a permanent base in England.
"The brothers want to live here permanently," claimed Fiddes.

Confessions of a YouTube junkie

I have a confession to make: I am a YouTube addict. It’s something I’ve been in denial about for a long time, but I finally realized it was true during Dead Week last quarter, when I sat down at 8 p.m. one night to work on my PHIL 151 take-home final. Suddenly it was 10 a.m. two days later, and I realized I’d spent the whole time watching Michael Jackson videos. I told myself that this was it. Life couldn’t go on like this. I realized that YouTube was not only affecting my schoolwork, but it was also driving me away from friends and family. The only reason I ever did anything anymore was to have time for Michael Jackson videos. Who could I possibly talk to about that? I was ashamed...
