“Paris was in great spirits,” a source tells Us Weekly exclusively, adding that the 18-year-old stayed by her new beau most of the time. Her mom, Debbie Rowe, was also in attendance. 

The teen, who was only 11 when her famous father died in 2009, celebrated her milestone birthday by getting a tattoo in honor of the iconic musician on April 5.

“’Queen of My Heart’ in his handwriting. To everyone else he was the King of Pop. To me, well, he was the king of my heart. Thank you @dermagraphink, you're a legend,” Paris captioned an Instagram photo of her new ink.

"She was so close to her dad and is still dealing with his death,” an insider adds to Us of Paris, who sought treatment in 2013 after attempting suicide. “It all comes back to that. She's sober but struggling a lot. It just hit her tremendously hard."

In February, Paris revealed that she attends AA meetings, and lashed out at critics over their “expectations.”
