Items being Auctioned - how do you feel about this?

This article is dated mid-March. We're these items up for auction before Prince's passing - or were they put up right after?
If right after, I feel terrible about it. Why would anyone not want to keep these precious things if they loved Prince?
I understand Mayte trying to move on but the others?
I would keep these things even with the tiny income I have.

Mayte doing auctions was well before Prince passed and it was not personal items, it was alot of tour merchandise that she had tons of in her home.

Actually it was her wedding ring, dress, China etc.

The more I think about it, she might've felt Prince would want her to auction them for her charity.

But his first Mgr selling that tape? Well, maybe he thought it might mean more to some else and he owned it for long enough.
