Of all the weird stuff that prince has done that made me scratch my head...if he was really romantically involved with Apollonian at the time of his death, it would be at the very tippy top of his weird pile...she is not the sharpest tool...and she could really really use an episode of "what not to wear", sorry that was not very nice...

She began posting about him in June 2014,right up until her visit to Paisley.She posted the cover for This Could B Us the next day.There wasn't much mention of him before that.She was posting loving captions for the photos she posted and seemed to hint at romantic feelings for him.

This is VERY disrespectful to say about my musical idol. He was an original and there'll NEVER be another like him.

We will have to agree to disagree. Am I a "dear"?

.

When you group all of Prince's women together, Apples is pretty low on the list with regard to riding his coattails. I have not seen that. She was cast as Prince's girl in PR, and I think that's a pretty big deal, given all the success that it had.

.

I do agree with you on how Prince hurt a lot of the women he was with and obviously scarred/emotionally-damaged them for life. To be a love interest of Prince, you definitely need a heart of steel. My first boyfriend was a lot like Prince, and he hurt me really bad. I know the type.

.

You are, in my honest opinion Respectful and fair. A disagreement won't get in the way of that.

.

Well, thank you. That was a kind thing to say.

You know what's funny? The only good thing about Apples announcing her book is that it shows us the hypocrites on here that were very fast to name call Mayte for writing her book. But different from Apples, Mayte didn't go on social media and said: "Well, I know what happened to Prince but you gotta buy my book to find it out." That's what Apples does here.

Now, I don't mind Apples writing the book, but she lost me by doing the exact same thing Tyka did. She knows that we want to know what really happened, or what at least lead to Prince's supposed pain killer addiction. If she really knows the answers, she should say it in an interview and not say: "It's going to be in my book."

Apples'll be among others who say they know the truth but only give it to you if you pay for it. And I highly doubt that what she says in her book is the truth.

.

Why do you feel that Apples would not speak the truth in her memoirs/book?

.

I always cringe whenever Prince's ex-wives are brought into these threads!

.

Just my point-of-view here, but I don't see Apollonia and Mayte being on the same page with regard to Prince. That is two completely different relationships; different story; different channel; different chapter in Prince's life, etc.

.

I agree with you about the Tweets -- everyone is getting tired of it, and it needs to stop.

Yes, she's very pretty. I remember her from GH and she's been in some TV movies recently.

I'm still pissed that they broke up Sonny and Brenda...

.

I haven't been following GH. Is it still on the air? I was really into it in the 80s.

.

I see some of the clips on YT, and boy -- does it take me back.....all the characters come back to me!

.

Life was so much simpler then (sigh).

Hmmm, I've never seen Prince & Apples together, as a romantic couple. Maybe he was trying to rekindle old relationships........but, we know that was never his style.

Because Mayte knows nothing about his death as she was not in communication with him.

Right now Apples is in the exact same position because she can't back up her claims that she and Prince had contact during his last days or even years.

I just brought Mayte up because Apples was one of the first to bitch about her plans to write a book. The second reason is because I use her as a reference to the hypocrisy of some orgers who also dragged Mayte on this board when she released her book.

My comment about the truth was simply about her cryptic statement regarding his death. If she knows anything, she doesn't need to write a book to tell us, this just screams "Money grabbing".

However, I've nothing against a book, but the way she's promoting it (Yes I believe the "The truth about his last days" part is simply placed for promotion), is not okay.

She was out at PP in 2014 and was seen by people. She is saying she has correspondence with him. Did we see any correspondence in Mayte book between her and Prince from recent years? Every time someone anyone tells us something different then the narrative they get thrown shade or called crazy yet none think two ex-wives are running around acting like widows with no current information to add just their profit making off of his death is in the least bit crazy.

Okay Laura, let me explain it to you in the hopes that you get it: The problem is, that Apples bitched about Mayte writing a book and is now doing the exact same thing but on top of it, she claims that she knows what was going on in his last days on earth.

Okay, let's say she was out at PP in 2014. IN 2014 is not 2015/16. She probably knows exactly the same we know: almost nothing. What's interesting it that she comes up with this claim now, why didn't she say something back then? Why now? And why does it need to be in a book? It's funny, you're always so critical but you believe this bullcrap on spot.

What are you going to say if she tells us something?

Depends on what she tells us and if she can back it up.

I just don't understand why people feel that she would write lies in her book. I understand the hypocrisy part; but what Mayte did was completely different. Don't forget, she went on that reality show and dissed Prince, and was selling-off his things, and her and her Mom were throwing shade at Prince, every chance they could get. Then when he died, she suddenly changed her tune. I don't want to rake up hot coals here.

.

I totally agree with you on the cryptic messages. It's enough that we have Tyka doing it.

.

I'm trying to give Apples the benefit of the doubt. I don't think she's a bad person.

Yeah,I never saw them like that either.If something was going on like that it would be a bit surprising.She made some posts on IG as well in 2014 and 15 that seemed to be hinting at it.She tagged Prince in her posts so he probably saw them.She had posted photos of them kissing in PR and told him she loved him in some.I didn't know back then that she was posting things like that.On the post for his Birthday in 2015 she told him "see you soon for din din."They seemed to be in contact at least.

Well some people tend to forget what she had to put up with while being in a relationship with Prince. Don't forget that he didn't cancel the Oprah Interview and Mayte had to act like everything was fine. That was shitty on his part so I could understand that Mayte might've hold a grudge and did it out of anger. I know I would've reacted the same way.

And I never got proof that Mayte and her mother threw shade at Prince. And even if they did, don't forget what he did to her. You make your bed so you gotta lay in it.

I understand Mayte was hurt and maybe lashing out, but "Hollywood Exes" ran from 2012-2014, and that was well after her and Prince were no longer together. Maybe she was having financial problems and her dancing career was not going so well, I dunno. I think she had a lot of unresolved issues with Prince when she went on that show.

.

I don't think Prince should have done the interview with Oprah. I thought it was strange, to say the least.

.

Yes, Mayte and her Mother threw shade at Prince on "Hollywood Exes", and her mother said "As a musician, I like him, but not as a son in law", and also she stomped her feet on the floor to suggest that she was squashing Prince like a bug. It was just very hateful and childish, imo. I mean, to go on a reality show and do that....for the whole world to see? I don't think Prince deserved any of that.

The posts are still there.She called him Skipper in most.She also has a post from December 2016 about This Could B Us and referred to it as their song.

Did Prince ever acknowledge her posts, when she was saying all this?
