According to TMZ, the 87-year-old got a high fever while having tests done, but doctors aren’t sure what is wrong with him.
Joe’s son Jermaine Jackson – brother of the late ‘king of pop’ Michael, who died in 2009 aged 50 – told TMZ: ‘My father is doing much better. We were all worried but he’s doing much better, he’s much healthier and we’re very happy about that.
‘He got weak and they rushed him … he was doing a normal check-up and he got weak and they admitted him.
He was reported to have taken three Viagra pills at the time.
Jermaine added: ‘He’s much better. All of his vital signs are great and we’re very happy.
‘He’s just tired. He’s 87. We’re just trying to hold onto him as much as we can.’
Others are Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael that made up pop band, Jackson 5.
