Unfortunately it seemed prince was still practicing his womanizing ways, just from listening to maya washington interview where she said she saw women coming in and out of paisley.

Did they go into that much detail? All I remember reading was that Bria said he wasn't committed enough to being a JW. I don't remember their being any specific reasons why. I remember reading that the person who talked to Bria was actually talking about the JW religion.

It was not newsflash but then why bother getting married? Business deal? Cleaned up mage in exchange for lavish stepford wife lifestyle (true golddigger style)? Perhaps when it came to marriage, love had nothing to do with it. IDK.

Interesting info from the conference. Prince and Bria's relationship seemed like a mystery and then poof she disappeared one day. Next thing you know she's getting married. Some thought they were really together and others didn't.

According to what was told to people at the conference they were together but it appears she got tired of his crap and married someone else. I think Prince just wanted to have a main women that would be his fall back women and still run around. Sometimes you can be in love with the idea of being married but not the person you are married to.

Not surprising at all. In the song "Love" from 3121 album he comes right out and says that she smiles at his friends but really hates them.


Prince was hitting it with other women almost right up to their wedding. I remember one story, and I might have some details wrong, so if someone remembers this, correct me. The gist was that Prince was seen parading women into the bar/club of a hotel in Hawaii just two weeks before the wedding. Mani was alerted on her way up to her room by a couple in the elevator who had just seen him. She seemed indifferent about the whole thing.



--Because he probaly told her he was going to see other women since she with him via an affair this could not have been a news flash. In Sheila E's book she said he told her he was going to have sex everyday he just wanted to have open relationships. The people who did the conference on him in England a few months ago reached out to Bria who told them she broke up with him because he was not serious about being a JW if he was always running around he was struggling with being a Christian.

This is very true. Prince may have romanticized marriage and it's part of the reason why his two attempts didn't work out. He also chose the wrong ones and had no plans for fidelity. With that said, I don't feel pity for the women; they knew what they were getting into.

No detail she took her faith seriously and I am sure she was around him long enough to see that he did not.

I haven't read the book, Vashtix. I think it was one of the few books on P that showed up in stores over here last year and if it's the one I think it is I skimmed through it. It was a thin book, wasn't it?

Do you know if she was a JW before Prince? I always thought she became one because of him, like some girls did-- I always assumed she'd abandon it once she moved on...

Not really. I just put the two most important parts of the book on the org. Mikki spends a lot of time complaining about the music industry in general and apparently had some unrealistic ideas about the industry. She would also later get into trouble with her husband for selling weed so listening to her self-rightousness can be a bit much.



I forgot to mention that she said M2 was nice when P was around and quite fake when he was not and that Prince would send M2 to Toronto and he had a few young ladies hanging around when she was gone so trouble with that marriage was going to happen right from the beginning

I read her book I don't recall that bit. And I would say he was a Christian with struggles. I don't think he struggled believing in God. You can be a Christian and be not that good at the rules. God allows for that, he expects it.

Oh lol. I didn't know her and was just curious who she is and that's why I skimmed through the book. I don't remember anything of it though.

Yes in her book " to the beat of my own drum". She never denied he liked the ladies. But she never said he needed sex daily.

yes strawberrylova123, which book are you referring to?

i read shelia's and i didn't fine her portrail of Prince negative as i found it honest.

the most honest thing she said i found was that when he asked her to marry her there was

never a ring and that she felt there should have been one but she didn't think she should have to ask for it

and my other big take away was that she just became exhausted trying to keep up her career and the his late night lifestyle.

i can not imagine what that must be like to have to adjust your natural sleep rhythms to accomodate

his.

Mikki white.
In a letter she called him a
Cheater
Moody
Wishy washy
Cold
And she talked about how prince humiliated a fan in front of everyone..he made a grown man cry.

Because all the gossip you read told you so, right?

I’m amazaed at how many are so quick to believe whatever women say about him. As if there’s no incentive for any of these women to have people think Prince was flirting with them or hitting on them or whatever. This guy was supposedly so sick and in so much pain and addicted to painkillers yet still found a way to be banging women until the very end? Wow he really was Superman then. lol

Ok it’s a real book so yeah that’s not gossip. Still I’m skeptical that every women ever associated with Prince is always telling the complete truth about their time with him.

To be fair she didn't say they were in a relationship or they slept together she is just recalling what she witnessed.

She got into a lot of trouble with that drug dealing. Apparently, it was just laying everywhere in their house and there was quite a bit of it. She was a school principal I believe before she got caught.



Do you believe she was in the know-how like she says or making some assumptions based on what she saw from a distance. Do you believe that he just let her and her sisters just move into his house and they were privy to that much private info. He was rather private, was he not? It sounds like reasonable assumptions were made at times, but assumptions nonetheless.

The group was Millenia and yes I beleive her



Sometimes people show their true colors right after the marriage. Just saying. But he wrote Call My Name for her and didn't want the divorce, or so he said.
It's really hard to know what goes on in other people's relationships, but what the author of this book saw is telling....
