Michael Jackson‘s former bodyguard, Matt Fiddes, has spoken out on why he thinks it’s ‘impossible’ that his late boss sexually abused young boys.

Personal trainer Fiddes, who worked for the star over a decade, says that with a team of 100 security guards and 150 staff in total, Jackson would never have been alone with the boys at his Neverland ranch, where the abuse allegedly took place.

Revealing that he is involved in an Amazon documentary refuting the Leaving Neverland abuse claims, Fiddes wrote on Instagram: “I went to film a documentary to be shown on Amazon which points out the facts in @michaeljackson life that have been incorrectly portrayed recently.

He goes on to add: “As part of his and many other superstars security detail, I explain how it is near on impossible for anyone to get past staff and the security in place.

“Fans could not get past us and would go to extreme levels to meet Michael. And Michael was never alone when travelling with his friends/family/nannies in tow and many other members of the entourage!

“I hope I have cleared up the myths and explained how Michael was protected like the president with over 150 staff including 100 security guards at anyone time at Neverland alone.

“And how his ‘secret room’ was in fact his ‘panic’ room which all major stars have. And it was built before he bought Neverland!”

Both accusers, Wade Robson and James Safechuck say they were molested by Jackson in his bedroom and closet, and that the late singer had a system of alarms outside his bedroom to alert him if anyone came near.

Fiddes specifically pushes back against this claim, saying: “People used to parachute into Neverland in the hope to meet their idol and he had to run to his panic room! Corridor alarms when people approach your private space is normal for all superstars!

“And even cameras above his bedroom door for surveillance by bodyguards while on the road too as well as nighttime security bedroom door security. He was checked on through the night too by phone calls!

Revealing more about the Amazon documentary in production, Fiddes adds: “It’s nice to see in this documentary the people who he spent time with giving their unbiased view, correcting timelines and interviewing experts on his legal cases.

“He was a very generous man, helping people and raising millions for charity, but unfortunately when you are one of the biggest stars in the world, you are also one of the biggest targets.

“Let’s please consider that these people who have outrageous things to say about MJ have a movie to push or either owe his estate money or are suing his estate for hundreds of millions of dollars! #mjfam”
