Jackson 5 legend Tito Jackson has died aged 70, it is being reported.
Tributes have poured in for the brother of the late pop king Michael Jackson who has reportedly passed away after suffering a heart attack while driving.
Entertainment Tonight reports that Steve Manning, a longtime Jackson family friend and former Jackson family manager, told the publication that Tito died on Sunday and was driving from New Mexico to Oklahoma, Mr Manning believes.
Just this year, The Mirror spoke with Tito and heard how, some 15 years since the death of Michael Jackson, the huge sense of loss is still as clear as ever for his brother.
He told how he felt Michael's presence whenever he walked out on stage and saw Michael's smile in the faces of his children - and he said he was continuing to fight for Michael's legacy.
Tito was the third oldest Jackson child in the famous Jackson family, which spawned global icons Michael and Janet Jackson. Tito and his younger brother Michael were part of the legendary Motown R&B group the Jackson 5, which included in addition to them fellow brothers Jermaine, Marlon, and Jackie Jackson.
