Michael Jackson planned leprechaun theme park in Ireland

Star's special relationship with Ireland

Friends said that the "King of Pop" wanted to move to Ireland to try and live a normal life.

Blackwater owner Patrick Nordstrom said he tried to give Jackson and his children “some normality from their crazy world.”

Mr Nordstrom said: “Having them in the house was a very normal experience in many ways, but it was also very weird.

“The children could play in the gardens because of the high walls. They really enjoyed it and you could tell they adored their father. "

Des Gahan, the owner of Kinsale’s Ballinacurra House, said the star was a “perfect gentleman,” during his stay.
