I for one think their marriage went kaput after the Death of their Child. Prince adored Mayte . She was Beautiful. The baby's Death did a number on the 2 of them and wrecked the marriage. I am almost 100% positive. Mayte was Destroyed wasn't she? Didn't she Care anymore about herself or Prince? Did she turn to drinking and drugs? What do you think? Did this cause Prince to change?

Just from observation of what was available in the media it looks like they simply grew apart. I don't think it was some vindictive scam on her part.

dunno this is to privat.

once again Nat...besides the 100% sure part...thoughts from my head.
But u know, I dont like thinking about it. so I cant really comment.

Right on, CalhounSq - You Cool!!

CalhounSq said:

Thank you - that was very funny.
I enjoyed it although I'm sure Natasha finds it negative & offensive.
You must be an ex-Paisley Park employee.

With songs as beautiful as the ones in Emancipation, and to break-up with someone you've openly expressed so much feeling for, I'm pretty sure anyone, including Prince, would be heartbroken over the matter. It doesn't matter which party initiated the break-up, it hurts. You know how love goes sometimes, it always hurts, no matter what.

Definitely... but let's hope he finds the one who can get him past all that, if he hasn't already.

Actually she's very good about laughing this kind of stuff off, I just wish she wasn't so willy-nilly w/ the OrgNotes...

No, I'm not an ex Paisley employee, LOL

Karma what goes around comes back around. He(Prince) had this unyeilding need to help fix people. Mayte has to solve her own comic glitches. And Skipper must be the captain of he own destiny. The constant taking on passengers that can not give him direction. That only bring their own baggage when he has an overload of his own.Secret Lies and Secret Truths that he denies you can not change your fate.Prince only pretends at a facsimile of love. When the Truth is that he runs from REAL Love that would terrify him to the bone. You must love yourself first in order to experience true love.If it is real it does not judge. Mayte has known prince since she was 8. It was more of a trying to recapture a relationship he destroyed or let go for the sake of his career. Warner Brothers could deal with girlfriends but not a serious commited relationship for him. So they consciously terminated that by saying he was breaching his contract by forming a relationship not approved by them. There is a reason why all the women he has dated looked European. A real Black woman would not be allowed to be in a relationship with Prince.Prince Broke his own Heart if he has one!!!

PANTS! What on earth was that all about?

Obsessive extremists united!

(beavis voice)...heh-heh...captain skipper.

My bet would be that she was banished from the rainbow, because she couldn't hang with the JW thing.

That fits with what I always thought, although it's purely speculation of course. Look who Mayte is with now, wild man of rock Tommy Lee. Didn't Prince used to be a bit wild? Maybe this is what Mayte likes and when Prince turned to religion, she just couldn't follow.

Only Prince, Mayte and those close to them know the truth.

I will add my 2 cents to this topic. when I saw the Oprah interview I had two thoughts that I believe is close to what happened. (1) The baby died, even though they never acknowledged it. (2) That Prince was trying to deal with infidelity, He had that I love you because I realize that you cheated and it was my fault look in his eyes. I experienced that in my marriage, and it made me look at my self and how I treated my wife and in a strange way I felt that I was responsible for her cheating. Instead of hating her, I hated myself and wanted to make it up to her. I saw that in his eyes. Then I saw them on sinbad, and Mayte had that I am not in agreement with this Larry and Tina Graham religious influence on my husband. She seemed like she was going through the motions but was not feeling what was going on. I think, the baby, infidelity, and religious persuit forced mayte out of the picture. But I have no proof, just a feeling I have.

If this is the case well Mayte didn't Know Prince at all. Well,we kinda figured she didn't. She gave the impression like she thought him crazy or weird back around the Exodus album came out and she used to act Strange in interviews. Prince didn't realize she Was just going along and see I think it's not so Bad the Larry or JW influence. I think she just probably feels more Free with Tommy. So I reckon Mayte is a Wild Woman and didn't wanna be Tamed.And also an Independent woman. I think she wanted her own career. She didn't seem to be doing anything workwise with Prince anymore. Tis a Pity that it is over,but Prince should realize it's all for the best. She wasn't for him.

Me thinks they broke each others hearts, both weren't exactly loyal 2 each other now were they...
And ofcourse the death of their child ...
Maybe Prince's constant desire 2 record music???
