How did he stalk her? Maytes mother decided that Mayte should work for Prince and told her it would look good on her resume. This was a woman with a plan. The mother then made sure Prince got the audition tape by hanging around his bodyguards. Prince knew Mayte wanted a big name to carry her career upwards. Prince stayed in touch with her via phone and letters. Mayte reciprocated and waited until Prince asked her to be in a video. Mayte took the role of tne Egyptian Princees, prince did not stalk her, in fact it was Mayte amd her family that stalked HIM! They targeted him to further her career and used him to do it. Prince knew this. . [Edited 12/16/17 10:45am] Baby, you're a star.

HE continued to ask her to send him videos of her performances in ballet and belly dance. HE invited her to shows in Europe during the Nude tour. HE invited her to Paisley Park to sing background several months after they met in 1990. HE invited her to do a photoshoot with him in 1991 with Herb Ritts. All of this was going on before she ever joined the NPG. Meanwhile, he was also writing the Love Symbol album, from later 1990 to 1992, which he said were love songs written for or inspired by her. When he said he fell for her as soon as they met, he apparently meant it. He asked her to join the NPG because her plan was to go to Egypt. He made a spot for her in the NPG and gradually moved the other dancers out, starting with Diamond and Pearl then finally TKD. | |

He invited M2 to a seat at the purple table yet she did go after him initially. Prince and M1 too initially her parents and M1 had a plan. Prince took the bait.... | |

The people who say that Mayte stalked him forget, that it was Prince who called all the time, it was Prince who told her she was in the band, but the first video she apeared in was in 1992, so if I got this right, she waited for two years and missed her chance with cairo, because he made her wait.
And yes she could've gone to cairo, but don't forget her age, and I think she was a little naive too. Because she was so young and in awe, because she met prince and even better, he called her too, they were talking on the phone. Just imagine it was one of you, you would've forgot ciaro too.
I would never blame Mayte, if I would have to blame anyone, I would blame her parents, especially her mother. She was the one who urged Mayte to do the video, Mayte didn't want to do it at first because she thought that he wouldn't be interested in it. But she couldn't know that Prince falls in love with her looks.
I think he respected what she did and that she did it since she was a child. I think he loved her passion for belly dancing. And she loved him and his passion for his music.
I wouldn't say they didn't love each other, because you could see it up until the tragic loss of their child and the misscariage. He loved her and she loved him, that's for sure.
But was it right? Well, if it's true that he waited with the relationship until she was 20 or older, than I see nothing wrong because both are adults, I don't care if their adults and there are a lot of couples with great age gaps that really do work but they managed to begin the relationship on the same level, Prince didn't do that. Prince manipulated her from the beginning, making her wait for two years, and telling her she can't go to cairo, because she's in the band. I don't think that's right. He should've started the relationship in another way. But Prince was controlling, Mayte is not the first person to say that, and the funny thing is, she protects him in every interview I've seen so far. She even protects him when it comes to his controlling ways, she never really attacks him for that.
Is she blind? Maybe, but that only shows you how much she still loves the man. Because love can make you blind. And don't forget her age when she was married to him. | |

Yes . Nons and Carmen and even M2 and who knows who else. The difference being, you never heard him talk about his love for another woman like he did with Mayte. He would bring her up in almost every interview and he was doing a lot of interviews then. Not before her, not after her. You also never heard him publicly call another woman the love of his life as he did with her. Nor have you ever seen him being so affectionate with other woman in public, on and off the stage.

Doesn't change the fact that he was obsessed with her Just listen to the songs he wrote before they even had a relationship. I never said he stalked her. Just wanted to show the people who claim that Mayte stalked him, that Prince called her all the time and made her wait for two years and she missed the chance to go to cairo because of that. | |

He didn't want any other guys in Mayte's life, but he could have all the women he wanted. He was obsessed with keeping other guys away from her. | |

A lot of cheaters are like that. Prince wasn't really a good husband, and it speaks for Mayte that she doesn't talk bad about him, not in the book and not in interviews......

Who were these other guys? I would imagine he didn't like sharing any of his women with other men. Not many people would. | |

Yes, but he cheated on her at the same time. | |

. But, Mayte did in fact talk bad about Prince, before she wrote her book. She couldn't talk bad about Prince in her book (post Prince), because of course it would make her look bad. . Mayte entered Prince's life during a period of artistical growth and she was obviously his inspiration, for that time.

. Yep! Because he could control her and mold her into what he wanted her to be. A girl who is 16-18 years-old is very impressionable, and she was submissive to his requests/demands.

They clearly had an open marriage; he never stopped seeing others and yes she will not admit but I am sure she was not sitting home looking at the walls. | |

First of all, an open relationship means that both parties agree that it is acceptable to see people outside of their marriage. Secondly, did you miss the 2 or 3 interviews he did in 1999 where he said he was very possessive of his wife and didn’t like men to touch his wife? In one of the interviews he even threatened violence on a man touching her with inappropriate thoughts. What about that says, yes, we can have an open marriage? [Edited 12/17/17 15:45pm] | |

Where do you come up with this stuff at? They did NOT have an open marriage. He might never have stopped seeing others, but she sure in the hell wasn't until after the marriage fell apart. He knew where she was at, at all times. Don't be silly. | |

—Because she knew he was a cheater when they were dating and she went along with it so what is she going to say now without looking like a bigger fool then she was for putting up with it in the first place. I honestly do not know what planet some of you live on. You are not obsessed with someone when you plan on cheating on them from the jump. | |

You and I know nothing but what she has chosen to tell us. Two sides to every story and no one is an angel. Like I said, he was directly asked about the cheating more than once shortly before they divorced. I’ll take Prince and Mayte’s side of the story over yours any day. Again, you think you’re the resident expert about the affairs of Prince and Mayte, but you don’t know much. There are tons of interviews on video and print available from that time period because he did more interviews than he ever did. If you care to know what Prince actually said and how much of his personal life he did share then you should check them out. Otherwise, stop speaking with authority as if you know. He shared more of his personal life then than he ever did before or after her, sometimes to the displeasure of Mayte, herself. | |
