I call that time the "Prince going off the deep end" era. In light of what happened last year, I hesitate to ask what he was on when he spoke that gibberish. I mean ... really? I'd divorce him, too. And I cannot understand why Mayte didn't hire a Laura Wasserstein-type attorney to represent her; naive, trusting or just plain dumb. You would think her mother, who pushed so hard for the relationship and marriage, would have tried to get as much as possible for her daughter.

I do not think he was going off the deep end. I think he was making himself crystal clear. He did not want to be married to her anymore and he was trying to go to some "open relationship + harem " life he had prior to be married to her.

She even said she found out about affairs before M2 came along. I just finished reading "Purple Reigned On Me by Mikki White . One of the back up singers from Millinia. She observed Prince when he was engaged/running around with M2. He had a few other women coming around whenever he sent M2 away to Canada that Geneva women was one of the women she saw hanging around.

He even let Mikki and her sisters slept in his bed in his house. He never stopped running around and probaly never planned on it. Even Jill Jones said he told her they were going to keep seeing each other when he was engaged to Susan.

I think Mayte did not get a good lawyer and sue his ass for divorce into the middle of next Tuesday is because she was running around and he had the good on her and she did not get the goods on him.

I am not blaming her if she did her own thing as I exactly think he may have pushed her too do it as a means of getting out of the marrige.

He was not a stupid man he was a self-indulgent man.

Minnesota is a "no fault" state so it doesnt matter if you are having extramarital affairs when it comes to distribution of marital assets and debts.

Just a thought here: since she did not do that, it's not unreasonable to think that there may have been more going on that led to that divorce than we are currently aware of. That's been what I've thought anyway.

She loved him. She hoped he would eventually 'see sense' and come back to her. She had seen her parents do that, and wanted it to be the same for her and P - to her mind, they were soul-mates.
.
Taking him for half of everything might have made him hate her, scuppered this imagined future - and she may have felt it to be unecessary as she was convinced he would rediscover his love for her, and return.

You all dead and determined to turn this into a how much Prince and Mayte loved each other thread?

Some of us don't care since they never seemed to work it out between themselves to get to and obvious place of mutual peace and understanding, they had more than plenty of time to do all of that. Something in the original relationship wasn't a strong enough foundation to build anything futher on in my book. It's a moot point now. I wish her much joy in her future life, and that's all I got for her.

This is not my interpretation of the situation, but thanks for sharing your viewpoint

I totally agree with you!!!!

thanks for the post, that is what a lot of us are wondering. I would have gone after him for what ever I could get .... sheeesh.

Peace, ~~DD55

Agree. So... maybe there was something preventing her from doing that.

NPG Music is separate from the Estate?

--That is a good question. At first when Breamer was running things it appeared to be included. Since Comerica took over it has been listed separately from the estate.

This is a true statement and has coRnfused me.

ISaidLifeIsJustAGame said:

Did you see the court order yesteday regarding the separation and the claim from the company which supplied services? The claim was turned down because it was filed against the estate and not NPG.

--Wow I will have to check it out. That could mean the LLC is separate.

The LLC's are separate and not a probate asset.

The LLC's are still P's property/asset but it doesnt go through the probate process.

If NPG is separate from the estate who owns it? I google searched NPG Music And Touring and found this: https://www.bizapedia.com...g-llc.html NPG Music And Touring, LLC is a Minnesota Limited-Liability Company (Domestic) filed on November 16, 2015 . The company's filing status is listed as Active / In Good Standing and its File Number is 854459700034. The Registered Agent on file for this company is NPG Records Inc and is located at 7801 Audubon Rd, Chanhassen, MN 55317-8201. The company's principal address is 7801 Audubon Rd, Chanhassen, MN 55317-8201. [Edited 7/29/17 6:39am]

Prince was the owner of the LLC.

Because it is a LLC it doesnt go through the probate case.

The money from the LLC can be distributed to the heirs without the Judge signing an Order to do so.

So who is responsible for it right now? Comerica?

Even though the Judge named the heirs I would assume Comerica is still responsible because it was on the Inventory and Accounting. It also depends on how the LLC was structured.

This is all so confusing. If NPG is not part of the estate then I’m assuming the estate doesn’t own the vault?

It is confusing.

The heirs own the Vault through NPG LLC unless the LLC was structured differently.

Also, we dont know what Ps agreement was with WB and whether they have an interest in any WB era songs in the Vault (from the UMG filings it seems WB may).

It is difficult to answer these questions because I dont know if P was the single member of his LLC's(which is similar to a sole propriertorship).
