Summary at a Glance

Tragedy of Michael Jackson's first sex abuse accuser: Jordy Chandler won $23million settlement but changed his identity to be 'a normal kid' He was a 12-year-old boy who became friends with his idol, the biggest pop star in the whole world, after sending fan letters to Neverland year after year.

However, his name has now been dragged back into the limelight because of the upcoming biopic Michael - which stars the late singer's nephew Jaafar Jackson - has been delayed over legal issues in its dramatisation of Jordan Chandler,.

But when Jordan Chandler and his family became part of Michael Jackson's inner circle after a chance encounter in 1992, it was no fairytale.

Since 1993, Jordy - whose father took his own life days after Michael Jackson's death in 2009 - has only been pictured on a handful of occasions, and it is not known if he is currently living in the US.

Jordan won a reported $23m settlement from Jackson after his father Evan - who was a dentist and aspiring screenwriter - took legal action against MJ for sexually abusing his son.
