An initial TMZ report allegedly claimed sources found Paris gaping with blood on both her wrists, leading to her hospitalization in a psychiatric ward and the consequent issuance of a 5150 hold.

Just minutes after the article was published and shared across social media, Paris took to Twitter herself where she slammed the story as fake and wrote 'f*ck you f*cking liars'.

Paris, the 20-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson reportedly attempted suicide back in 2013 and has allegedly battled with depression since her father's death in 2009.

Paris' foilowers were quick to offer her support on social media with one writing, 'You know the truth. If anyone who cares enough to want your side of the story, they'll ask. But, you know the truth. That's all that matters.'

The 'Leaving Neverland' documentary has split audiences, with high profile artists like rappr The Game speaking out in Michael Jackson's defence whilst radio stations across America have pulled the star's music from their playlists.
