JANET Jackson has finally broken her silence on her marriage split and her new baby in an emotional video message as she confirmed plans to go back on tour.
The pop superstar spoke about the breakdown of her relationship with husband Wissam Al Mana and revealed they are " in court".
Janet, 50, shared her video message online and started by joking about her baby weight, admitting her body has changed since she gave birth to baby Eissa in January.
She said: "Hey guys, it's me, Jan. Just in case you don't recognise me 'cos I have put on a few [pounds] since I had the baby."
Michael Jackson's sister then spoke about her son, calling him a "lovely" baby, before opening up about her marriage split.
She said: "Thank God for him [the baby] you guys, 'cos he is so healthy, so beautiful, so sweet, so loving, such a happy baby...
"I just want to keep it real for you guys for a second - yes I separated from my husband.
"We are in court and the rest is in God's hands."
Janet went on to confirm plans to hit the road again after previously scrapping her world tour so she could focus on becoming a mum.
She plans to hit the road again with new shows, and she has re-titled it the State of the World tour.
The singer added: "I am continuing with my tour as promised. I changed the name - State of the World tour.
"I wanna thank you guys for your patience."
Janet and Wissam Al Manasplit last month after five years of marriage and three months after the birth of their son in January.
