The Ugandan born listed Michael Jackson at four places in her 1985 senior yearbook at The Academy of the Holy Family in Connecticut, reports TMZ.
In the yearbook:
- Michael Jackson tops her likes along with "my family, day dreaming, travelling, junk food 5 years."
- Her class will leaves all her Michael Jackson pictures, post cards, records, T-shirt and glove to a Sister Patrick (her dorm mother) and Toni Barboza her little sister in the hope that they will learn to love him
- Michael Jackson finds mention in one of her class prophecies: "Grace Rwaramba is married to Michael Jackson and has her own generation of Jackson 5"
- A caption on one of her photos reads: "Michael Jackson, eat your heart out!"
Michael's personal photographer for the past three years, Ian Barkley, who traveled with Michael extensively, told UK's The Mirror recently that Grace was Michael's secret girlfriend and their romance was an open secret amongst family members and staff.
Grace was introduced to Michael in 1991 and initially worked as his secretary. Following Michael's divorce from second wife Debbie Rowe, she took charge of his elder two kids and soon started calling the shots in the household.
The 42-year-old went on to become the de facto mother of his children Prince Michael, 12, Paris Katherine, 11 and seven-year-old Prince Michael II.
"Grace loved Michael and he loved her," he said. "The kids called her 'Mom'."
