Paris Jackson hit back Tuesday against claims that she posted a “creepy” edited photo of her now with her late father Michael Jackson.
In the black-and-white photo she shared on Twitter, the 20-year-old model and actress appears with Jackson on one side of her and her mother Debbie Rowe on the other in the photoshopped snap.

Fellow “Orange Is The New Black” actress Lori Petty called the shot “creepy AF [as f—],” before deleting the tweet and taking back the comments after Jackson explained why she posted the edited photo, according to the Daily Mail.
“No I think it’s nice to dream about what it would be like to have parents, and to have it put into something I can see, even if it’s a fan made edit,” Jackson responded.

Love you.

Other fans of Jackson seemed moved by the touching edit, sharing their overall love and support as well.
The model was only 11 years old when her legendary father died, who was raising her after her parents’ divorce. After Jackson’s death, she went to live with her grandmother Katherine Jackson.
