Michael Jackson‘s children are doing fine.

The late singer’s mother, Katherine Jackson, said in a telephone interview that aired on Sunday’s Geraldo at Large on Fox News that Prince, 11, Paris, 12, and Blanket, 7, are coping well following the June death of their superstar father.

“The children are doing fine,” said Katherine, who also blasted rumors that her husband Joe Jackson has been banned from seeing them.

“I don’t know why they’re saying he’s not being allowed in the house,” she said.

“My husband’s never done nothing of the sort that they trying to say he did 39 years ago. I don’t understand that, and I just believe it’s something that they cooked up.”

Asked if Joe is a good grandfather, Katherine replied, “Of course, he is. And the children will tell you that he is.”

She also addressed accusations surrounding Dr. Conrad Murray, who reportedly gave her son Michael a lethal dose of anesthetic Propofol the night before his June 25 death at the age of 50.

“All I know is that my son is dead, and I don’t think he just died of natural causes or whatever,” she said. “He’s too young for that. Something happened, I don’t know what it was and I can’t say.”
