*The Jacksons are reportedly pressing Janet to speak out in support of her brother amid the controversy surrounding the “Leaving Neverland” doc.

Jackson’s family have condemned the film and the King of Pop denied all allegations levelled at him during his lifetime.

Michael Jackson’s estate released a statement soon after the film’s premiere saying, “Michael always turned the other cheek, and we have always turned the other cheek when people have gone after members of our family – that is the Jackson way.”

“But we can’t just stand by while this public lynching goes on…Michael is not here to defend himself, otherwise these allegations would not have been made.”

Jackson’s nephew, Taj, has started a crowdfunding campaign to produce a documentary that refute all sexual abuse allegations.

In the meantime, The Sun reports that relatives are angry at Janet Jackson for refusing to speak out in defence of MJ.

A source close to the family said: “In the past week there have been discussions among the Jacksons about the documentary and how it will affect Michael’s legacy. Everyone wanted Janet to release a statement condemning the documentary because she is the most senior member of the family after Michael.

“They feel she could have done more to support him against the allegations.

“Several relatives have made their feelings clear to her in the past few days and tried to put pressure on her to say MJ was innocent.

“But Janet’s career has always been separate from her family’s and she’d like to keep it that way. The family feels like her silence speaks volumes but she just does not want to go there.

“Ultimately, she doesn’t know what went on and doesn’t feel like it’s her place to say anything.”

Meanwhile, “Leaving Neverland” director Dan Reed has warned that “more victims will come out.”
