Per ABC News and a statement released by the family today. http://abcnews.go.com/Ent...d=38938646 It is also states that the Judge has asked the Executor (the Bank for now) to have DNA gathered from Prince's blood for any potential "heir" claims that may come up. Sad, but I am glad they are thinking ahead and doing what is needed to protect Prince and his legacy it seems.

So is this in reaction to the event in LA taking place this evening? ...related point: Eric Benet one of the main performers...now the husband of Manuella. Weird.

They have a very strong case they are working on for an heir that is in his 30's according to what the article stated a few days ago, this is the next step in determining his, and, anyone elses relationship to him. If this guy turns out to be his son, things are really going to get interesting.

That would be really messed up since he was so devastated losing his other children if someone kept one from him till now when there's money involved. I'm not buying it. You'd think they'd have come forward a long time ago...

Anyone 'claiming' to be related in any way suddenly comes out of the wood work......... they are just greedy and looking to get their hands on the money and/or other stuff. smh

Eric Benet? What? I guess Manuella never heard of Halle Berry. Good grief. Was Brian McNugget busy? Who the hell thought this was a good idea? Even Benet should have known better. (And this is coming from someone that liked his first album.)

.

If anything is going to bring Prince back from the dead, this would be it. Well... that and when Tyka or whoever's in charge licenses his music to be used in a Viagra or Sizzler commercial. All tributes/memorials should have stopped with the D'Angelo tribute on Fallon. Everything that follows is either redundant or likely going to be cringeworthy.

.

Sigh.

Perhaps he knew and just wanted to keep the whole thing secret. It's not unlikely.

But, do we know what this guy looks like? Does he look like Prince?

I for one hopes everything works out and that somehow everyone will be on the 1 page in regards to tributes etc. We don't want another Jackson's drama situation where everyone was doing their own thing and it was becoming messy.

Unfortunately Prince's not leaving a will left an open door for potentially bogus claiments and chaos as regards his musicall and financial legacy.

It does look suspicious when someone comes forward immediately after his death. He doesn't strike me as someone who would have been financially unsupportive/irresponsible of any child, even if he hadn't wanted further involvement with the mother.

If this young man who is in his 30s, according to the article I read last week, turns out to be his son, then I think Prince may have known about it, but kept it secret from the public, ask this young man could have come forward years ago and revealed it. In the article, it stated that the company investigating him said that this person claiming to be Princes son, had credible info that interested them, and that is why they wanted to investigate further. He also told them that he did not want any publicity when he came forward, so that could be why we have not seen any pics of him yet. I think his mother may have signed a confidentiality contract. If the DNA test turns out that he is Prince's son, then, yes that changes everything. We shall see. [Edited 5/7/16 3:27am]

I hope he is Prince's son cuz that would change everything and make this mess a lil easier to deal with. I would be glad to hear that he did have a living child As far as the memorial I dont think its gonna happen, but I may be wrong. It took his family this long just to put out a small statement and were going on three weeks now since Prince passed.

It could also be that the mother kept it a secret from the child until now.
