Diana Ross is comforting the Jackson family after Paris Jackson's suicide attempt.
The "Chain Reaction" hitmaker - a close friend to the late Michael Jackson, who was named a back-up guardian to his three children in the singer's 2002 will - is said to be
"extremely concerned" about her godchild's well-being following the incident last week, and has offered her support to Paris' grandmother, Katherine Jackson.
"Diana is extremely concerned about Paris. She was stunned that Paris attempted suicide and has vowed to make sure she gets the help she needs," a source said.
According to Michael's final will before his death, Diana, 69, would gain custody of daughter Paris, 15, and brothers Prince, 16, and Blanket, 11, should their 83-year-old grandmother no longer be able to take care of them. However, although she is worried about Paris, the former Supremes singer isn't said to be interested in taking custody of the children away from Katherine as she feels they are well looked after in her care.

Katherine Jackson Refuses to Speak to Her Kids

Katherine Jackson isn't talking to three of her children.
The showbiz matriarch - who temporarily lost custody of late son Michael's kids Prince, 15, Paris, 14, and Blanket, 10, when she made an unexpected trip to a spa in Arizona - is unwilling to meet with Janet, Randy and Rebbie Jackson because she believes they misled her and didn't tell her that her grandchildren had been trying to contact her during her stint away from California. The siblings are reportedly banned from entering the home in Calabasas where Katherine lives with her grandchildren because they are at war with the executors of Michael's estate - which pays for the property - but their mother is said to be "heartbroken" over their recent behavior and doesn't want to see them.
