Well, when he wrote I hate you about Carmen Electra he flew her from LA to Minneapolis just to play her the song because he believed she was dating some other guy. Carmen has said she was not dating anyone the person was just a friend but Prince would not listed to her. He made her listen to the song and then she was dismissed. Does this sound like someone who takes rejection well?
Does burning personal belongings in a bonfire seem like he took failure or rejection well?
In Sheila E's book he gave her a hard time about a love scence in Krush Groove until she was able to get the director to drop it. Calling her everyday about it and dropping by the set.
M2 got 10k amount after trying to get 42k and you do not know if Prince gave her 10k willing or if he was ordered to do so.
I suspect he tore the houses down because he did not want her to get them in a divorce and M2 received 10k a month in temporary support and in the end she received the following. A mansion, A Lexus 3 million
Not much when she could have received half of what he earned while they were together. Remember the Musicology tour made 80k. If he got to take home half of that M2 could have walked away with 20 mill easy.
Dr. Funkenberry claims that Prince just stopped speaking to her and that he made her accqaintence in LA and he delivered messages to Prince because Prince did not want to talk to her.

Prince said the house was "infested" and that was why he tore it down. Also, I admit- I go back and forth- I've never like Manueala but in a lot of ways, that marriage seemed to be his only real marriage. A marriage where they both treated one another as equals. He went to marriage counseling with her- whereas with Mayte she was just dismissed altogether and basically, banned from his life forever. But, he did say the house was infested, so... whatever that means... | |

One of the reporters at the Star Tribune put info about the divorce settlement on their instagram because more information is avalible you just have to go to the court to get it. She took a picture of some of the financial information.
So what I posted about her final amounts are true. Why would a man stop talking to his wife and just leave her? Can you think of a couple of reasons? Because I know I can.

The unsealed file from Prince’s second divorce offers a glimpse into the late musician’s luxe lifestyle and the more routine spousal disputes over access to property, such as childhood photos, videos and jewelry. While they were married, Manuela Testolini said she and Prince threw big parties after major awards shows like the Golden Globes, Oscars and the Grammys. For the events, Testolini would hire a $5,000-a-day stylist to do her hair and makeup. The couple would spend $50,000 per party on food, drinks and decor, the records showed. In 2004 alone, Prince earned $42 million. “We had accounts at boutiques including Gucci, Versace and Valentino. We had accounts at Saks. There was never any restriction on (Prince’s) or my spending,” she said. Divorce files are generally public, though judges often will agree to seal them if both parties to the case agree and no one else objects. The documents, made public after the Star Tribune moved to unseal the files following the star’s accidental death in April from the painkiller fentanyl, also revealed that in May 2005, Prince locked Testolini out of their home on Galpin Avenue in Chanhassen. He also cut off her credit cards, boxed up her stuff and stowed it in the vault in Paisley Park for “safe keeping,” according to an order signed by former Judge Tanja Manrique on March 16, 2010. Prince then tore down the house. The couple’s divorce was granted in October 2007, but two years later, Testolini claimed Prince had not returned several personal items, including copies of videos he made based on songs he had written for her: “Gamillah” and “Another Girl.” He also had not returned jewelry, including a gold and diamond earring set from Tiffany and an antique gold and amethyst earring, necklace, bracelet set from the vintage store “The Way We Wore,” as well photographs, memorabilia and scrapbooks. In all, the items were valued at $185,000. At that time, Prince was representing himself and didn’t respond to the court. In her documents, Testolini said Prince claimed the videos had been deleted and he didn’t know the whereabouts of the items. She disputed that, saying Prince never destroyed every copy of a video and that if he did, “his actions were purely punitive.” The unsealing of the divorce documents came amid the ongoing legal dispute over the legitimate heirs to Prince’s vast fortune. The megastar, who was found dead in an elevator at Paisley Park, had no will. Carver County District Judge Kevin Eide is overseeing the case. He has indicated that the surviving siblings, including Prince’s sister Tyka Nelson and five half-siblings, will likely claim at least part of a fortune estimated at somewhere between $100 million and $300 million before taxes. Prince and Testolini, the musician’s second wife, met when she was a consultant for his charity, Love 4 One Another, according to the documents. They married on Christmas in 2001 when she was 25 and he was 43. She said they lived “an extravagant lifestyle” with each having their own personal assistant. They had a housekeeper and a personal chef preparing their dinners, the documents showed. Testolini said she “routinely had massages, spa treatments, manicures, pedicures and facials.” She and Prince traveled frequently, renting homes for months at a time in California and Hawaii, flew private planes and spent up to $15,000 per night on hotel suites. In 2004, Prince released his album “Musicology,” which sold more than 2 million copies in the United States. The Musicology tour was the top grossing U.S. Tour in 2004, bringing in $87.4 million, she wrote. The Star Tribune moved to unseal the files after questioning whether they would shed light on why Prince was taking painkillers, any potential heirs, or the value of his estate at the time of the divorce. The files didn’t provide any insight into those issues. The documents also don’t explain why Prince and Testolini divorced, although the couple did seek counseling from New York City-based elders of their shared Jehovah’s Witness faith. She has since remarried and had children with another man. In recent months, Testolini fought the release of the divorce documents, claiming disclosure would put her and her family at risk. The documents do not show financial details of the final divorce settlement. At one point in the filings, Testolini said she was not seeking permanent monthly support. She did, however, receive a house in Toronto worth approximately $6 million and a Lexus automobile. During their split, she initially received $10,000 a month in support. Prince also transferred $3 million to an account, Gamillah Holdings Inc., which was opened with $1 million in December 2002 and over which she had control. In court filings, Prince rejected Testolini’s claim that she needed $42,574 a month, which she said amounted to no more than 2 percent of his monthly earnings, to maintain a lifestyle that included attending the awards shows and hosting parties afterward. “This is my normal life,” Prince’s response said. “By filing her (divorce) petition, (Testolini) severed her access to this lifestyle ... This is not a marital standard of living that can be recreated with money.” The documents also include a transcript of a deposition Prince gave in May 2008 where he was questioned by Testolini’s lawyer. The portrait of the artist that emerges from the pages is similar to his public persona. He only grudgingly gives up insight or substantive answers. Many of his responses are some variation of, “I don’t know” or “I don’t recall.”

"We know the kind of credit cards he cut up, we learned that on that Ex-Wives show, them cards are limitless"
I have no idea what this even means. She got cut off the limit of the cards means nothing. She did not have access to them anymore.
My point is that "You do not have to be a mind reader to know that men do not go around throwing women in the street and stop speaking to them for no reason.
Usually it is one of a few reasons. While we do not know if any of these are true I think common sense plays a role.
1) Running around with other men. 2) Gold digging or stealing 3) Having some other dude's baby which is just the same as running around. 4) Dude met someone else

I have to agree that something happened - none of us knows what it was - to cause him to hardline it with M2. M1 essentially got nothing in comparison to this wealth; M2 didn't get much more. Even with no pre-nups these women got run over bigtime. Quite unusual. | |

OR, like from the time he vamped/teased 'we could get married, wouldn't that be cool' to the engagement to Susanna (that included him having other women), to the on-stage proposal to Sheila or (even more bizarre) the TELEPHONE proposal to Mayte...the man was in love with the IDEA of marriage; marriage? not so much. Marriage 101 teaches you have to be willing to compromise, apologize when you're wrong and fidelity is a big thing. NONE of this sounds remotely like Prince! | |

I don't think any one woman ever caused him to think about giving it all up. Someone he loved more than she loved him. Kind of like George Clooney now. He met someone who bowled him over, and that was that. | |

yes he needed someone equal in strength and resolve, i dare say Denise/Vanity( but i could be wrong) was his fire for fire. He needed an artistic equal for emotional relationship success. but yet someone who he loved more, but that was gonna be difficult given the way women choose to give him their all. i know basketball players have groupies and this is a problem for them to maintain successful relationships. who was the one who said he slept with 2000 women? | |

I think he got played, big time, by his second wife. BUT, remember the old cliche: you can't 'con' an honest man? The manner in which he exited his first marriage and dove head first into his second never seemed quite right. It wasn't like he decided he didn't want to be monagomous or even be married...he just wanted a different wife ,one who signed on to the LG stew of JW beliefs..The proof being in the pudding; what good ever came to Prince from that interlude? The pain of a second divorce, the ultimate and final retreat to PP and opoids. Did he get what he deserved by marrying M2? I often wonder if she felt HE USED HER. | |

Sequway from the other thread a tad on punishment from God, I'm inclined to think This is a more apt way to enact a karmetic punishment for P being bad earlier on, than his child passing too soon. To me those are normal tragedies that we all suffer however awful they maybe they are humanities equalizer. But M2 using him fooling him that was, to me, karma coming to get him. | |

Are you one of those people who just have something agaisnt any religion?
He did not want to be married to Mayte anymore for whatever reasons and I think he checked out mentally before he even thought about about being a JW. Mayte was not going to become a JW so he left. No mystery. I think you are forgetting he was raised as a 7th Day Adventist and JWs are just an off shoot of SDA so JW was not some foreign concept to him.
I do not think Prince got played by M2 she walked away with very little money and I am going to assume that they both were running around and that marriage had been dead long before they divorce. We know she was living in a Condo before he even went out on the road for Musicology. So they were not getting along. I know that this may come to a shock but thousands of people divorce everyday and they do not become addicted to pain pills because of it. We have a lot of evidence that Prince kept right on dating after his divorce and evidence that he had surgery in 2010 and no evidence that he was abusing these meds until the last weeks of his life. Joint pain = pain meds Divorce = more running around.
For all you know he could have been doing a black flip down the road once the divorce papers were signed. Marriage is not for everyone. | |
