Prince Jackson, the eldest son of late pop legend Michael Jackson, is officially engaged to his college sweetheart, Molly Schirmang, after eight years together.
The 28-year-old shared the news on Instagram on Tuesday, posting several photos with Molly and writing, “8 years down ♾️ to go. Molly and I have spent a lot of time together and made incredible memories. We’ve traveled the world, graduated and grown so much together. I’m excited for this next chapter in our lives as we continue to grow and make great memories. I love you babs 😘.”
Prince and Molly began dating while attending Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Over the years, they have maintained a low profile but were often seen at family gatherings and on trips around the world.
Fans celebrated the announcement, noting how Molly has been a steady presence by Prince’s side throughout the years, from college life to supporting his charity projects like Heal Los Angeles, which he launched to honor his father’s legacy.
Prince, born Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. on February 13, 1997, is the eldest of Michael Jackson’s three children, alongside siblings Paris and Bigi Jackson. He is known for keeping his personal life private but has occasionally spoken about cherishing his father’s memory and supporting projects like “MJ the Musical” and the upcoming biopic “Michael.”
The engagement marks a new chapter for Prince, who expressed excitement about their future together while keeping the celebration intimate and heartfelt.
