Prince & Mayte: Wha' Happened?

I was living in Japan & didn't have an internet connection when Prince & Mayte split so I missed out on all the rumour, fact, gossip and talk. Does anybody know what happened? Solid facts and wild speculation welcome.

Also: what post-Mayte songs are generally considered to be about her or the break-up?

Mayte is a very sweet girl but it didn't work out between them and they broke up in 1999. Prince was married to Manuela after that.

Cheers, PurpleMedley122! Informative, charming and hilarious.

I apologize if this topic's been covered to death already; I was just curious. There's a screw of enormous magnitude loose somewhere when you find your soul mate, write tons of songs about her, and then lose her to Tommy Lee.

I'm serious, I really don't know about Prince's personal life except the basics.
I have no idea what this diaper diva is up 2 these days...Maybe her and what's her name, oh yeah, Beyonce are designing "One of a Kinds," for "Pamper's now. cool

What a really repugnant rebound! Must have been a school girl crush or som'thang.
Who ever said Prince has lost it - has lost it. The Kid's still got game!

DIAPER DIVA?!? This coming from someone who writes love poems to Prince and is sure that he will be hers one day! nuts

Watch out, your jealous, little envious claws are showing!

I'm pretty sure the death of their baby would have had a big impact on the relationship.

I could see it coming...having been through something similar...complete crush on Prince, she genuinely loved him, older guy etc...and the relationship was heaven...for a while...ahhh, but she wasn't fully 'grown'...too young...inexperienced...and all young women change...loss of their child could have contributed greatly...that is traumatic...and Prince would have been a reminder of that... although Prince is a rude boy / bad boy in his own way, despite his heels / clothes / make up...it's no surprise she went with this real 'bad boy' Tommy Lee...a more of a 'typical' kind of guy...predictable.

I'd be guessing about 'post Mayte' songs...I always thought 'Had U' was obviously about her...sigh...(love that song).

Can anyone confirm she didn't cheat on Prince though?

The general consensus is that 'Had U' is about Warners. Also it isn't a post-Mayte song, C&D is from 1996.

It's also general consensus that 'I Love U, But I Don't Trust You Anymore' is about Mayte, and in general Rave is a bit of a break up album (Man O' War, Greatest Romance), and also that what's her face, the second wife, was on the scene before the divorce, so it wasn't exactly all one sided.

Had U is not about Mayte. It's about WB.

The song was released on Chaos And Disorder in summer 1996, with Emancipation being released at the end of the year. Emancipation is full of Mayte and baby references:

Betcha By Golly Wow (watch the vid)
FriendLoverSisterMotherWife
Let's Have A Baby
Style (Mayte in the shower)
My Computer (I have a child, I have a lot to explain)
Sex In The Summer (sampled the baby's heartbeat)
