Didn't notice the til after I posted. But you can't really blame me for asking. In my short time on Org, I've read my fair share of comments where people assume that P's exes are still hung up on him and do things out of spite.

Mani would probably have a break down if Eric brought her home a dress in the exact color and fabric as his tie and lapel.... (ala Julia Roberts in Sleeping With The Enemy when she looked in her cupboard and found all the cans in alphabetical order). Thankfully she is wearing a dress that complements Eric's but is NOT coordinated. That is some weird shit Prince likes to do with his women. It was cool in junior high... but as adults...

What does that have 2 do with them having gr8 sex. Plus I like how Prince dresses his wives/girlfriends/proteges/arm candy etc.....

Nothing. I was just commenting on the photo that was inside your post. Have looked at the picture several times and really took a look at it for the first time while reading your post.

Oh! Once I look at it. I do prefer the way she dresses now...But she seemed more in the background with Prince. With Eric she seem more out front. I guess because Prince has a bigger presence than Eric.

Did they get married yet?

I cannot lie that is one stunning looking couple...yes indeed...dare I say she looks better with him than she did with.... Prince

Hope it lasts.

I agree...they look great together.

I know looks aren't everything, but they really do complement each other. They look like a caramel Barbie and Ken.

Prince really lost a good one. I never thought she was up to his standards. But she is a banger. They would have made some good looking babies.

Mani looks great, but Eric still gives me big-time heeby-jeebies.

I know... it is because the man is/was a liar. You know to cheat on your bride on your wedding day... you have to be pretty damn good with deception. Now, he may have reformed... but still ya got to know that he is still capable of deception. (Hopefully, he chooses not to deceive his new fiancee). But I think that is the vibe I get from him... fine as hell but a little shady, a little slimey.

I hope he and Manuela make it. This is a fresh start and chance for happiness for both of them.

Honestly? I think she's one of the most attractive women I've ever seen. Genetically gifted.

Wow, you're still oogling Mani??! Does she know about this?

The wedding is scheduled for sometime this summer. Planning is in the works, I hear.

I think we all know that Eric Benet cheated on Halle. I think much of what you've heard is an exaggeration (as in the wedding day story). I'm sure you will believe what you wish, though. It's sort of like I believe that every man (and indeed every woman) is capable of deception and that they practice it from time to time. The vibe is all about perception. I don't get the shady, slimy vibe AT ALL and to be truthful, I'd be willing to bet I've spent more time observing that you have.

It is true, I am going by what was written in articles. I believe it is a fact that Eric admitted to cheating... since it was a quoted directly from their PR and never denied.

It true that the wedding story could be exaggerations to the truth. But my perception of him is that I get vibes of deception. And not saying that everyone of us are not capable... because we all are... it just that is the major vibe I got from him during Halle days.

It also appeared that he was really hurt and angry with the break up of their marriage due to his wandering.... maybe he will be more careful with his next relationship.

This post is my response to a few of the previous post.

I'm sorry, but when the whole Halle/Eric "sex-addict" saga broke, I didn't jump on the "Poor Halle Bandwagon". I don't believe in situations such as this that someone could be that naive. She had to have known about his problem before she married him. Just like any other addiction, the addict will always show traits of having a problem. And it doesn't (shouldn't) take long to recognize that something is wrong. Unless, she was just in love with being in love (which I think is Prince's issue, too), that she chose not to see. So, she chose to marry Mr. Benet and when her blinder fell off or she realized that she couldn't change or "save" him, she divorced him. I think that she's a nice person and a great actress, but her divorce was a "smh" moment. It's like the song, "Everybody Plays the Fool"...key word "plays". She's not the innocent victim that the media set her up to be.

As for Mani, I know what was posted when I had asked about the apparent "ill-feelings" toward her when I joined org, but it was Prince's decision to marry her. And if what was said about their "courtship" was true, then shame on BOTH of them. If what was said was gospel, then he (Prince) proceeded to engage in a relationship with another woman (employee of his, possibly the personal assistant to his then first wife) before ending his marriage to Mayte. So, if that is the case, let's not just blame Mani.

But, let's leave the past where it belongs...in the past.

Eric and Manuela seem happy together and they deserve a fresh start. As I posted earlier, I wish them the best.

I fully understand that this is a Prince fansite and because of that some of you feel obligated to be Pro-Prince when it comes to his exes. Besides, Prince may benefit from her getting married. He can get the "spousal support" order modified or even terminated. Until then, he will still have to do/pay whatever the court order requires him to do.

How do U know there was a spousal support agreement? The court records of the divorce settlement was sealed. No one knows what is in those, but Prince & Mani & the lawyers & judge.

Singer Eric Benét is off the Market

Singer Eric Benét is off the market… again. If you recall in 2003 Benét, 40, split from his then wife, Halle Berry, after she caught him cheating. Benét and Berry, who married in 2001, reconciled in 2003 but their troubled marriage ended in 2005. Benét is famous for his sultry ballads, but also for claiming that his infidelity was due to his sex addiction for which he sought treatment. (He later claimed he was not a sex addict after all.)

For these reasons we can safely assume that Benét has an addictive personality driven by his emotional dependence on Dopamine (we’ll discuss this later in a Medical Minute post). Benét’s latest flame is 20-something Manuela Testolini. The two lovebirds were spotted holding hands, while out & about in Los Angeles yesterday.

The press has taken notice!
