Dee Dee died at age 39 after drowning in her boyfriend’s pool
Tito Jackson and Delores “Dee Dee” Martes Jackson were married from 1972 to 1988. They had three children together. A few years after their divorce, in August 1994, Dee Dee passed away.
Brother’s ex-wife Michael Jackson died at age 39 after drowning in a pool at her then-boyfriend’s house Don Bohana. An autopsy performed the following month showed that she suffered “blunt force trauma” and her death appeared “non-accidental” (via People).
Tito and the children believed that Dee Dee drowned due to her fear of water. “My first question was, ‘Drowned? What was she doing in the water?'” he recalled Tito in conversation with the ABC News in 2017. “Because Dee Dee and I, neither of us anything.”
