Mobeen Azhar interview with Mayte https://wspartners.bbc.com/episode/w3ct34n3w1tbpsj59
In 1990, Mayte Garcia was an aspiring dancer. Her mother sent a video of her belly dancing to the musician Prince in the hope he might hire her. Not only would Prince – who was then one of the most famous performers in the world – eventually hire her as his primary stage dancer, but Mayte would end up becoming his muse, inspiring hit songs and albums. The relationship was not without controversy. Mayte was a teenager when they first met while Prince was in his early 30s. They married when she was 22 and their happiness would be tested by heartbreaking tragedy.
