Paris Jackson stepped out yesterday with boyfriend Chester Castellaw to enjoy a Beverly Hills theater performance. The King of Pop’s daughter looked healthy, happy, and beautiful as she posed with her boyfriend for their first red carpet premier.
People reports that Jackson, 17, along with her date, Castellaw, 18, were invited by friends to attend West Deaf Theater’s Spring Awakening show. The couple smiled gleefully while posing for pictures on the red carpet at Beverly Hills’ Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts. While Paris wore a grey dress, matched with grey Dr. Marten boots, Castellaw sported black trousers and shoes, matched with a light purple button-down shirt and a dark purple tie.
After mingling in the lobby for a while, the couple made their way into the 7 p.m. showing, in which 27 cast members performed the show in sign language. An undisclosed source indicates that Jackson and her boyfriend enjoyed the show and stayed close together throughout its duration.
“She said she loved the show.”
Meanwhile, numerous rumors surfaced recently that Paris and her new beau are engaged. However, according to an insider, although Paris wears a ring on her right “wedding finger” given to her by Castellaw, it’s only a promise ring.
“Chester is absolutely in love with Paris and I am sure that he would love to marry her. That ring that she is wearing is a promise ring that he got her. They are both so young and there is no way that Paris’ family would allow an engagement to happen.”
Regardless, the couple seems completely happy with each other and have shared numerous pictures together via Instagram. They’ve also been spotted several times over the past few months, exercising outdoors and enjoying local events in California.
This comes as a welcome relief, considering the 2013 suicide scare that the 17-year-old went through. Everything appears to be back on track for Paris though, after returning home from a therapeutic Utah boarding school. Her family, according to an undisclosed source, is happy with her new relationship and elated that she is happy again.
“Her family seems to like him and they are happy that he comes from a privileged background in Beverly Hills because they are very protective over the children’s inheritance and they want to make sure that he is with her for the right reasons.”
Paris Jackson seems to have the approval of her uncle Jermaine Jackson as well. He recently told reporters that he would be fine with Paris getting married because “you never know about love.”
