What do you think about Tyka changing her story now and saying that she knew Prince was going to pass away 3-years before? She said in this interview that she had been preparing and buying jewelry for his funeral. Maybe this was already posted/discussed, and I may have missed it.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/t...s-11411709

Yes, this had been discussed awhile back. Maybe it will come up if you use the site search?

.

I did a search, but didn't see anything about that specific interview, but it came up in another thread. I've been on hiatus, so I'm trying to catch up!

I do not think she changed anything because a year has passed since she last spoke about knowing ahead of time. So she added a year.

I thought that also, along with many others, until I listened to what she said several times.

.

She specifically said that it took 3-years from the time she got the phone call from Prince. Those were HER words. It's all over YouTube, if you want to listen to it again.

.

She said when she got the call that he was gone, she knew what they meant because she was waiting. Those were HER words.

.

On a side note, I also find it strange that Prince would call his own sister using an unknown number. Very odd.

.

She said that she knew and the family knew that Prince was going to die. So now, she will publish her book to tell her side of the story. Sounds shady to me. I mean, why not be truthful about what happened to Prince, if he was sick or suicide, or whatever. Just seems like another cash-grabbing opportunist, imo.

The first time she said this was in 2016 she said two years which I took to mean 2014. Is is now year later which would make it 3 years ago, Not that hard to figure out.

What is your point if you know that someone is going to die then you will be expecting the call. Remember she said the person on the phone said "he is gone" and hung up.

She was waiting for that call. It is not strange that he called his sister from an unkwown phone number. His old manager said that Prince had a phone that was hacked into so he used other people's phones and I suspect burners.

Tyka never said the family knew Prince was going to die she said she knew from a picture and song he e-mailed her and that he asked her te e-mail it to Andre and Andre's sister.

gnre why this is so difficult too belive?

If she writes a book she does not have to worry about anyone changing her words which people on this board have already done. Not sure why you think she needs money from a book when she is going to inherit millions and most people seem to be fine with other people writing books who did nothing but trash him when he was alive and well.

If you listen to the interview Charles Smith has done it obvious that some of the sibs are hiding something.

Laura, Sorry to tell you, but you are wrong. Did you listen to the video I put the link to above? You obviously did not. She said SHE KNEW FOR 3 YEARS BEFORE HE PASSED. SHE SAID SHE PLANNED HIS FUNERAL FOR THREE YEARS BEFORE HE DIED (read the article I posted).

.

The interview I posted was from this past October, 2017. Prince died in 2016, so that means Tyka KNEW her brother was going to die back in 2013. That is what she said. Watch the video and listen, if you have an attention span.

.

I'm not changing her words. You aren't always right, Laura.

Next thing folks are going to want the date and time he called her. We also know she's been grieving and struggling with her own personal demons but of course her main concern is making sure she quotes dates exactly so they stand up to everyone's scrutiny. Now I get why she didn't have any lines in Empire, people would have picked it apart as definite signs of her personal character.

Did you watch the entire interview from the BBC? Do not go by something that was patched together and placed in an article. Go find the whole interview from the BBC not the short interview.

When she first told us she knew he was going to die on GMA and Entertainment tonight it was about a year ago. She said she knew two years before and that interview was done in fall of 2016. Two years prior to that would have been 2014. Now we are a year later so it would be 3 years as of 2017.

Just think about it for a minute. Also I am not sure what difference it makes if it was 2014 or 2013 the whole point is about what was in that e-mail and the fact that she said and others were left with task to complete.

It could not be more obvious that something was known to her and I am sure a few others about Prince's health and time line to be around. It does not matter if was 2013 or 2014 he knew he was not going to be here much longer or did not want to be here.

You are missing the big picture. Charles Smith said the cameras were removed from Paisley Park.

Who do you think would pay to have a security system removed from the building?

I'm sure the authorities have all of that information. Picking apart? Her brother DIED and she said those things! Words are like toothpaste; once you push it out, you can't put it back in. Comprende?

Do you know what accountability is? When you say something, you take accountability for it. Tyka said what she said, and people are going to question her inconsistent statements.

Nevermind Laura. Yes, I did watch the entire interview and her words were not taken out of context or edited. Every article I read says the same thing, so maybe you need to contact the media and tell them their story is wrong.

This is the short interview not the long one and once again why are you harping on if it was 2014 or 2013? What difference does it make if she changed form 2014. I think she may have slipped up the date because of all the events that took place in Prince’s life in 2014. Why are obessing over this women and a date while the the fact that she has now stated she knew he was going to die ahead of time in 3 separate interviews. Now she is telling us he sent her an e-mail with information pertaining to his death. Do you think she is making this up? If so for what reason because these comments have not made her famous in fact it appears the mainstream media could care less about what happened with Prince’s if they cannot expolit the drug angle. So what is your point here?

LR, you know what this is all about, people are sick with frustration at the lack of candor.Also, check out Pg 1 of the New York Times today and see how Paris came to a stop to honor and mourn Jonny Halliday...Prince fans never had that kind of closure and massive outpouring of love and grief that should have been Prince's (IMO)...instead we had those grubby pix outside the crematorium...it still stings.

What does it matter if this is the short or long version of the interview that Tyka gave in October of 2017? Yes, I have watched both versions, and again, what does it matter? She said what she said. It's all there in black and white and it came out of HER mouth. It's like, you want to just make excuses for her, and that's your choice, but I know what I heard and read. Believe what you want.

.

Futhermore, if she had misspoke, then why didn't she clarify what she said then?

.

She slipped-up the date? What??!! She specifically said she prepared for three years until he passed. That's not something someone is going to slip-up, get real. Is your hearing okay?

.

She only assumed that Prince was telling her he was dying. She interpreted that from what he said and the e-mail with the picture, so that is the story she is trying to sell, and gullible people will buy it. Not me.

.

You are ready to lock Kirky up, but yet you sit there and defend Tyka's inconsistencies?

.

Tyka is just trying to stir-up controversy so people will buy her book!

.

....And, let me add this: Prince was about the TRUTH, and he did not like liars, and neither do I.

.

And, for anyone who can sit there and think that Prince would ever entrust his Sister to plan his funeral or manage his affairs must be smoking something pretty damn good. Heck, Prince was closer to Kim Berry than he was to his own sister, and other siblings, for that matter. And, I guarantee you, if Tyka had passed before her brother, Prince, he would not be acting this way and talking crap like Tyka is. SO very disrespectful to her late brother, PRINCE, and he deserves better!!

Notice how many of my questions you did not answer. If she mispoke so what. She does not have to make a corrections for you. She did not assume anything she said she saw the e-mail and knew he was dying. She is very clear about it. Is something wrong with your hearing? Whatever was in that e-mail told her he was dying she just did not know when it was going to happen. What is she trying to sell and why? She does not have a book out and she does not get paid for interviews. So what is she trying to sell?

What would be the purpose in making this up? Tyka is going to inherit a lot of money and Prince did nothing to stop her from getting that money. Prince was the executor of his Dad's estate he knew what would happen with no will so please explain what you think Tyka is trying to pull? What can she gain by making these statements? Is it going to make her rich and famous?

According to the interview Charles Smith did with the PrincePodcast Kirk is still under investigation by the police. In the search warrants it is pretty clear why he is under investigation. My opinion about him is based on the facts that we have and his odd behavior which according to Charles is still continuing.

He did not legally entrust her with anything since he did not leave a will. So once again what are you talking about?

Tyka worked for Prince for a few years sending out take down notices and she traveled with him. You or I have no idea what was said between the two of them

What is she saying that is so disrespectful? If he was sick and knew he was going to die she has yet to let the public in on the details. So what are you talking about?

Notice how many of my questions you did not answer. If she mispoke so what. She does not have to make a corrections for you. She did not assume anything she said she saw the e-mail and knew he was dying. She is very clear about it. Is something wrong with your hearing? Whatever was in that e-mail told her he was dying she just did not know when it was going to happen. What is she trying to sell and why? She does not have a book out and she does not get paid for interviews. So what is she trying to sell?

What would be the purpose in making this up? Tyka is going to inherit a lot of money and Prince did nothing to stop her from getting that money. Prince was the executor of his Dad's estate he knew what would happen with no will so please explain what you think Tyka is trying to pull? What can she gain by making these statements? Is it going to make her rich and famous?

According to the interview Charles Smith did with the PrincePodcast Kirk is still under investigation by the police. In the search warrants it is pretty clear why he is under investigation. My opinion about him is based on the facts that we have and his odd behavior which according to Charles is still continuing.

Laura: Believe what you want. What questions of yours did I not answer? I think I made myself very clear on this topic. What more do you want me to say? We all have our own opinions regarding Tyka. If you want to speak to someone who doesn't answer questions, that would be Tyka Nelson. Not me. Tyka is planning on publishing a book and she did make that very clear.

....And, let me add this: Prince was about the TRUTH, and he did not like liars, and neither do I.

.

And, for anyone who can sit there and think that Prince would ever entrust his Sister to plan his funeral or manage his affairs must be smoking something pretty damn good. Heck, Prince was closer to Kim Berry than he was to his own sister, and other siblings, for that matter. And, I guarantee you, if Tyka had passed before her brother, Prince, he would not be acting this way and talking crap like Tyka is. SO very disrespectful to her late brother, PRINCE, and he deserves better!!

He did not legally entrust her with anything since he did not leave a will. So once again what are you talking about?

Tyka worked for Prince for a few years sending out take down notices and she traveled with him. You or I have no idea what was said between the two of them

What is she saying that is so disrespectful? If he was sick and knew he was going to die she has yet to let the public in on the details. So what are you talking about?

.

Laura: You are not understanding my above comments. I guess I don't write plainly enough for you. Tyka is putting out there that Prince entrusted her to handle his funeral arrangements and his vault. That is what she said.

.

We have no proof that Prince said any of those things to Tyka, do we? It's not in writing, so it's all hearsay, as far as I'm concerned. The search of PP did not uncover any documents concerning Prince's wishes. You can take Tyka's words as gospel, but I'm not going to. Only time will tell if she is telling us the truth. Prince is not here to speak for himself, so only time will tell whom is being truthful.

.

It is my opinion Tyka is being disrespectful in regards to her late brother, because she is stirring-up the bee's nest by making all these odd statements, and not giving people any explanations about anything. It does not paint her in a good light, imo.

.

I don't know why people think that Prince and Tyka were close. Just because they were siblings, does not mean they were close. Sure, they probably talked from time-to-time, but close? Tyka did not know if there was a Will or had access to his Vault. She said a lot of nasty things about her brother, Prince and sold it to the National Enquirer. Prince forgave her because he was a loving brother, who cared about his sister and financially supported her and helped her get off of drugs. Do you honestly think he would ever trust Tyka to manage his personal affairs, much less his estate?

.

Look at what happened to David Cassidy (different issue), but he left nothing to his daughter, and they weren't even close. Just making a point that a lot of siblings/parents/children are not close.

.

I don't know how much more I can explain myself.

.---- You have done a poor job of explaining yourself. Who else was going to make funeral arrangements for him?

Who do you think should have made the funeral arrangements? Do you know Prince had Ahmir cremated?

Do you have some inside knowledge that Prince and Tyka never discussed his funeral arrangements? After all, if she got an e-mail about his death I am sure they had subsequent conversations.

Do some deductions and stop carry on about you do not like.

She may have some ideas about what he wanted to do with the vault but since he left no will the court will decide so what are you taking about. She has an opinion and since she will inherit the vault her opinion is more important then yours. Eventually she can do what she wants with it.

We do need proof of anything. She will inherit her share and once again if Prince did not want her input he would have written a will and left her nothing. I think looking at the behavior of SNJ he may have done the right thing because things are getting done.

Your opinion and you have a right to have but that was his sister and she has a right to say whatever she wants. I think you just do not like what you are hearing because I think if he sent her an e-mail and she knew from the e-mail he was dying that putting much tells us he was dealing with a health issue without giving up the details which would be a violation of his privacy. She also said she is going to write a book and what are you going to do if that e-mail is in that book. Time to wake up.

Once again what are you talking about? She is not managing anything Comerica is managing his affairs. Also, if he paid for her to go to rehab and she worked for him doing take down notices maybe he forgave her for the National Enquirer interview his Dad was running his mouth to Inside Edition and he still took care of his Dad so maybe he just got over it. Please get it out of your mind that she is running something.

David Cassidy left a will and did not include a daughter that he said publicly (a dick move) that he was only biologically her father and was not involved in her life. I suspect she knew she was getting nothing since she had no relationship with him.

We know Prince and Tyka spent time together since his parents passed about 15 years ago. She worked for him and lived in a home he brought for her and was he nice enough to put the home in her name so unlike the other sibs she has a roof over her head. Actions speak louder than words. She has not made a butthole out of herself like SNJ who for some reason you are giving a pass. After Charles said that SNJ did not want any of Mattie’s children at the memorial I think we should all be glad that Mattie’s children are alive and well as who knows what would be happening if SNJ were running things just based on their idiotic comments in the court papers.

I hope I made myself clear and we will just have to agree to disagree.

Laura, will you please calm down and take it down a few notches?

.

I'm sorry if I haven't explained myself thoroughly enough for you. You do have a habit of twisting people's words around on the Org.

.

Who do I think should have made Prince's funeral arrangements? His family, of course!

.

Have I had to deal with a loved one dying suddenly? Well, yes, I have!! I lost my dear Mother suddenly and tragically, I might add and I had to handle everything basically on my own. I was her next of kin and her POA and she had her last wishes in writing.

.

You know Laura, you are incredibly insensitive to other people's feelings here and you assume that you know me, which you DO NOT. Do not assume anything. Have you ever had to deal with the sudden loss of a loved one?

.

You don't find it the least bit strange that if Tyka knew her brother, Prince was dying, that he would have his last wishes in writing?

.

Prince sent Tyka an email with a picture. He did not tell her he was dying in those words. She assumed that was what he meant, and she said "Boom, he's dying!", then proceeded to tell the entire family that Prince was dying.

.

David Cassidy was bankrupt, and it's a totally different situation than Prince's. His estranged daughter, Katie is an actress and I'm sure she lives a pretty good life, and is able to take care of herself.

.

Who am I giving a free pass to? Who is SNJ? I don't know why you are bringing Prince's parents into this. I didn't say anything about his parents.

.

We are all entitled to our own opinions. I'm not expecting you or anyone to agree with me. My feelings are what I feel. Have a nice day!

How do you know he didn't? Since we are in this warrant thread, they state that Prince communicated through emails, isn't that writing? It's just not a legal will which is recognized by the courts, which has been explain so many times on the Org. I don't know what Tyka's truly doing but I can imagine that she has some idea about this business and there is still supposedly an federal investigation still opened so one does not go running their mouth just to prove something to fans because they want it. Even Prince would tell us to be patient even when we wanted something right then. These people are not at our beck and call. In the words of Billy Sparks...well, by now you should know the rest.

Absolutely. While on the subject of bees' nests Tyka is giving off a creepy vulture vibe, with her well-timed PR offensive - there have been, unoffically, two so far...

(1 was a month ago, to promote the O2 exhibit', and the other about a year before that) Er, she's the only person regularly talking about P, of anyone close/ish to him.

Where the book's concerned, I reckon she'll have nothing to add about recent illness issues in his life. No doubt there'll be a few interesting anecdotes about P's childhood, early adulthood, maybe even last few years. I would also not take 'tyka working with him' as kosher. The idea that she traveled with him everywhere for the last few years doesn't fly. Unless she frequently flew, which she didn't. Noone would have guessed a thing.
