Tito Jackson, the second eldest brother of Michael Jackson and co-founder of The Jackson 5 pop band, passed away at the age of 70 on September 15, 2024, just one month before his 71st birthday on October 15. Apparently, the musician suffered a heart attack on his way from Oklahoma to New Mexico and couldn’t survive.
Tito Jackson’s death follows the passing of his brother Michael in 2009 and their father, Joseph Jackson, in 2018. The news was earlier reported by ET, then confirmed by his nephew Siggy Jackson to the People Magazine.
Originally known as Toriano Adaryll, Tito has always been the guitarist to the Jackson 5 group and later to the Jacksons when Jermaine Jackson left and Randy Jackson joined.
The band had a strong musical influence on the people back in 70s and 80s due to their strong dance moves and as a family band, people loved to watch them together.
Not only Jackson brothers, but the sisters were also seen usually in their appearances in the TV shows.
As upcoming biopic “Michael” is one of the most awaited movies of 2025, Tito Jackson character will be seen in it played by Rhyan Hill.
