Ross has been caught up in the controversy after the custody arrangements of Jackson's children Prince, Paris and Blanket were called into question.
As Ross was Jackson's choice to look after the children after his mother Katherine Jackson, she was reportedly involved in the decision that led to TJ Jackson taking temporary guardianship of them.
However, Ross has now asked people to respect the family's privacy in a brief statement to The AP.
"All interests are best served if it remains private," she said.
La Toya Jackson has reportedly urged her relatives to resolve their feud, while Jermaine Jackson recently used a concert appearance to promise that his family "will heal".
