His mother worked two jobs to support him and his brother. She wanted more for them than she could provide so she sent them to live with their uncle in California. There they met another young woman who would become their aunt; this woman had two sons of her own and she loved them very much. She told Morgan and his sister that if they ever needed a place to go they should look up to the stars because that's where God kept his promises. And so they did, and now here they are... Joseph is also the cousin of actress LaToya Jackson who played his on-screen wife during the first season of The Young and the Restless. They share the same grandmother and have been friends since they were little kids. He also has one other cousin, Michael Jackson's son Prince Michael II. They both grew up living with their grandmother after their parents died too. Prince Michael II remembers playing with Joseph at their grandmother's house and thinking he was a prince too because everyone else there was royalty.
