Debbie Rowe is suing a self-described friend for allegedly suggesting she was willing to surrender her custody rights over her two children with Michael Jackson for money.

In court papers filed on Thursday at the Los Angeles Superior Court, Rowe is suing Rebecca White for defamation, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

The ex-wife of Michael Jackson says White falsely claimed she had received an email in July from Rowe saying of Prince Michael I and Paris: “I’m not going after custody … These kids are not mine. They were never mine. They were always Michael’s.”

White made her claims on US entertainment show Extra!

The legal documents further allege Rowe never sent White a second email three days later saying: “My lawyer is telling me I have to take some responsibility about the welfare of the children … Do I want the kids? Hell no. Does it look good for me to ask for them? Absolutely. I don’t want to look like the woman who gave away her kids and just forgot about them. Would Michael want Joe [Jackson] to have them? I think it would be the last thing that he would ever have wanted.”

The court papers do say Rowe and White have emailed each other before, “but none discussing Mr Jackson, his family, or Ms Rowe’s children. There are also no emails between the parties since Mr Jackson’s death (with the exception of two sent by Ms White, to which Ms Rowe did not respond, and in fact, one of which was not even opened until July 14, 2009, when Ms White’s interview first came to light).”

The lawsuit alleges White has tried to make money out of celebrities before, including Naomi Campbell, Robbie Williams and the late Heath Ledger.
