My heart goes out to Mayte. She is grieving and trying to process this, just as we all are. Every one grieves in their own way. Every one remembers Prince in their own way. However, she had a relationship with him, was married to him, carried his child. She, more than anyone else on this page, feels that loss deeply. When someone we love passes, we don't tend to focus on the negative that occurred in that relationship, but remember the good and the beautiful. Her pain is real. Her grief is real. She lost her child, and now she has lost the father of that child. Her last tie to baby Gregory has been severed. It doesn't matter what their relationship has been like over the years. It doesn't matter whether they kept in contact with each other or not. It doesn't matter who carried the marker for Pfieffer Syndrome. None of that matters. Prince has died. The father of her son has died. She is feeling that pain. As for drinking, she could be just trying to run from the pain right now. It's only been 17 days. What they shared with each other, well, it will take longer than that to recover from the pain of that loss.

I don't think they were close. Prince probably supported them, but that's all. I had a chat with Duane's daughter few years ago on social media, and she didn't sound like she was close to his Uncle P. She was a little arrogant though. Besides I think his siblings are living a normal life. They probably have no idea what to do if not given showbiz style advice.

I believe it...thats very sad and also scary because there are so many people just wanting to take advantage of them.

Them? Each of his half siblings have kids. I think most of them have kids too. There are about 200 people in his family geneolgy probably that will benefit of P's wealth. Most of them probably didn't even know him. I imagine they weren't even in touch with him.

I believe P knew the outcome that's why he didn't give a shit about a will. It totally makes sense to me. If you can have everything at anytime you want in your life, like you are mega rich and famous I think there comes a time you begin to not care about anything monetary. It becomes worthless. He didn't care about his siblings. If he did he would have had a will. Just my two cents.

Couldnt agree more.

I really like her and cannot help but feel so much sadness for what she has and is currently is going through.

I hope she gets through this and eventually finds the peace she is looking for.

I may be wrong though Nursev. I imagine people leave a will when they think they are close to people. If there is no will. It's a bit like "Ya'lll can kiss my ass" and I don't care what you all do. Prince was a smart man. He was not stupid.

Another question or comment....U know when MJ died we at least heard from his family on his passing. I mean other than seeing them show up at PP and the court house his family hasnt said too much of anything which really sets bad with me. Maybe its just me

The Jacksons grew up in showbusiness. They already had PR people and the likes of.the Jacksons were raised to be "camera ready" all the time. I have a feeling Princes family are just ordinary people who don't have a clue what to do with all this "fame" or being in the spotlight. Princes shock death and the quick cremation etc they probably needed time to get their heads around it all. Tyka did post a status on Facebook about it all.

well Im glad she said something and youre right about the Jacksons.

Damn, but for him not to leave anything....you have to wonder about his relationship with them. When he was younger I wonder if any of those family members took him in? We know Andre's beautiful mom did, but no family besides his dad?

Half siblings are overrated. If his mum or dad did not put any effort to accommate family feeling than why would there be some kinda connection? My assumption is they were in touch but like seen each other every few years except Tyka. She was working for PP and some others as well I guess. LIke I wrote Duane's daughter was not in touch with P. He's her uncle, right?

Thank you for saying this. I agree 100%.

.

My only issue with this video, aside from the fact that I'm concerned for Mayte and how she's coping with her grief, is that she shouldn't be drunk/drinking in front of her daughter. I had an alcoholic father growing up, and I'll never ever forget how it affected me to see him drunk, whehter he was being a 'loud happy drunk' (not his usual mood when drunk, but rarely he was like that) or he was a moody, angry, unpredictable drunk. It made me uncomfortable and nervous and I never knew how to respond to him, it only made me want to run away from him and hide. It was terrible. So, please Mayte, don't drink in front of Gia.

.

Lastly, I'd like to know where to get that dress she has on. I think it's beautiful.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that with your father.My sons father ended up addicted to opiates and then graduated to crack cocaine... My heart hurts for what he went through before we escaped . Ha ! I saw that dress too ! And , she is still drop dead gorgeous IMO

.

.

Thank you, and I'm so sorry you and your son had to watch his father go through his addictions. I'm glad you and your son were able to get away from that, but my heart goes out to you both for what you endured before getting away.

.

.

I agree Mayte is indeed still gorgeous as ever. and again -- I wanna know where she got that dress! If anyone knows, please spill it!

She is completely wasted in this video. I feel bad for her. She probably should get some grief counseling or something.

I'm curious why you'd think that. Just being his son does not give him talent, not being around his father doesn't give him ability or incentive to carry out the legacy. He'd just get a bunch of money. Did Prince have any kind of relationship with his nieces and nephews?

Well...U may have a point...I'd like to know about his relationship with Sir and Pres? Im just thinking it would be nice just for him to have a son.

It seems pretty clear here that Mayte was a victim of Prince's universe. Who knows? Maybe he wouldn't have been a bad husband after he cleaned up his act and became a JW. Wait. Mani.

Anyway I hope Mayte gets some therapy and lets Prince go.

Also, if Prince hadn't rejected her so so badly (not even friendly many years after) then maybe she would have been more loyal to him. Because it does seem like the first years after, she didn't talk about him at all and in a way still lived by his rules. I remember in 2011 when she wanted to attend a P concert, and she got the message from his camp that she would have to buy her own ticket. That was ?!?!?!#$@@/#@!!!!! I mean, she was a member of the NPG and she had been his wife for 3 years . Perhaps if he had been more amicable towards her, she wouldn't have done "Exes" and the selling of items ect. I think she has always loved him and even 10 years later he didn't want to be friendly with her. So even though I am disappointed with her decisions, I completely get it and feel bad for her.

i see your point maybe he didnt want to be friendly with her cuz of their history loosing their child and it hurt too much you know? i think ultimatly she just wanted some closure on their relationship they were together not just married but working together etc for a very long time u cant just get over that overnight..but anyway everybody grieves in their own way this is ovbiously here way of dealing with it. is it the right thing? probably not but who are we to judge if it bring confort to her let her be
