Janet Jackson will always have love and support for her siblings.
Over the weekend, the “Someone to Call My Lover” singer made a surprise appearance in England, stepping out on stage to support her brothers, who were performing in England as The Jacksons.
Their reunion comes almost a year after the oldest Jackson brother, Tito Jackson, whose full name was Toriano Adaryll “Tito” Jackson, passed away aged 70 on September 15 of last year after an apparent heart attack.
On Saturday, July 19, Janet attended a performance by her brothers Jackie and Marlon Jackson — who were still bandmates with Tito at the time of his death last year — at the Heritage Live festivals in Reading.
The Heritage Live official Instagram account shared a slew of photos from the special surprise appearance, including one in which Janet appears on stage standing between her two brothers, and another two in which they were pictured in an embrace.
“What a privilege it was to have a very rare appearance by @janetjackson when she joined her brothers on stage last night at the @englefieldestate and what a performance @thejacksons gave us!” they wrote, adding: “A real treat! Thanks guys — we all love you at @heritagelivefestivals! Xxx”

Per People, Janet also shared some backstage videos to her Instagram Stories, gushing over how excited she was to watch her brothers perform.
