Prince wouldn't let his pregnanat wife see a doctor!

When he did after a couple of months; he insisted NO MALE DOCTOR!

He was unhappy with Mayte's figure after she gave birth and said she wasn't gonna be in any of his stage shows or videos.

Slave To The Rhythm is an okay book, more critical of Prince's behaviour than other books which is a valid viewpoint, however it does take onboard a lot of tabloidy gossip as fact though. The info about Mayte's pregnancy came from 2 employees of Paisley Park, 2 sisters who looked after Mayte. They later got fired, and sold their story to the tabloids. Now whether they were telling the truth or whether they were embittered employees making stories juicier to get tabloids interested, who knows.

I know, that is so sad! I cried when I heard the news. sad That's why I find it hard to believe that he would be so insensitive about her body after the birth. With all that was going on, it's a wonder how she managed to get back in shape at all.
