That might be a problem when going for the young and/or naive ones. However, he had a natural orphan detector, he'd find the ones who had been abandoned in a way, just like he had been, and then he'd play mother/father/brother/sister. That's how he bonded.

Interesting.Vanity described him in an interview the same way.She said he was very nurturing and loved to take care of her.I don't know about the other ladies he had around him but his last girlfriends seemed to come from healthy family backgrounds but perhaps you don't necessarily mean orphaned or abandoned by a father or mother.

I see. Actually, I don't really know a lot about the women in his life since after the 90s. I can only speak of the times before and that was a pattern I noticed.

In the interview posted in Music & More with Snoh Aaalegra who was a close friend,she mentioned that she comes from a broken home and didn't have a good relationship with her father so it seems that may have still been the case with some of them.

That is true.

Exactly she's no more qualified to speak about his later years than you or me....

:Yeah that: Let us not forget. If they don't play that cryptic game, they'd be bored and have nobody to talk about them. The longer the game, the longer they enjoy the gossip, ...but Prince passing is not a joke. Fans are still devastated.

.

It's almost like Prince's associates are all at war with each other. Prince wasn't joking when he said he had a "Purple Army".

I don't think they are. Everyone is doing their thing. The only people that have attacked others was Jill Jones, Elisa Fiorillo and then Apollonia's stuff that was vary vague.
But the others haven't gone after anyone

True, but I mean in terms of people who have been saying stuff in social media, and kind of doing finger-pointing and such. He said, she said.

Whether anyone likes it or not, all of the people who were associated with him have a right to speak. Whether it be early, late or life long associates. They all can shed light on the man, the myth, the legend that is Prince. All I ask is that they keep it factual. Don't venture into rumor/gossip.

.

Exactly!

.

Keep it real. Prince did not like gossip and lies being spread about him, so his associates should do the same.
