The LA dermatologist, who fell from grace after Michael Jackson's demise from a medication overdose, has passed away four days after being admitted to a hospital in Palm Springs.
Dr Arnold Klein, who was dubbed Father of Botox, was extremely close to Jacko, and the pair even holidayed together, but he allegedly helped fuel the singer's drug addiction.
After Michael Jackson's death, in 2009, it emerged Dr Klein had injected him with prescription painkiller Demerol 51 times in three months and he also gave him prescriptions under various aliases. including Omar Arnold, Fernand Diaz, Peter Madonie and Josephine Baker.
As a result, Klein's life spiralled downwards and he was declared bankrupt.
The news of his death, aged 70, comes the day after Michael Jackson's son Prince suggested he knew the pop legend wasn't his biological dad.
Dr Klein was the former boss of Debbie Rowe, the mother of Jackson's two oldest children, and had been rumoured to be the real father of 18-year-old Prince.
Yesterday the teenager received a tweet which read: ""Everyone knows you are a Rowe-Klein NOT A Jackson!! Yall should stop trying to put on a FAKE front and get real".
Prince replied. "'The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb'. I was raised by my dad with my brother and sister.'
