Wouldn't it be comforting to know that Prince had a real partner or wife at the end. I feel like

if he had a companion, we'd have less grief. It would mitigate some of the pain for me if I knew he

was taken care of emotionally leading up to his death. Sort of like Iman and Bowie: it's her place to grieve, as his widow, not mine. I'm free to sit back and feel my sentiments of love and appreciation. But with Prince having been so alone in life, there is a void that evokes and extra level of sadness and grief for me around his passing. What do you all think?

I am in awe of your comments I feel the same. It wasn't easy I would imagine to have a relationship so close to him. But it seems all still loved him

I totally agree!!! It breaks my heart to think there was no one taking care of him emotionally. He was such a genius that I am sure it was hard for him to find someone he could connect to as a peer. Many people in MENSA (the Genius IQ society) talk about the loneliness and inability to find companionship -- God Bless Prince's Soul!

Not "A" partner/wife but a good one. If he was in a bad relationship at the end, would have made it all even worse.

What doesn't make sense to me is, why is the dude coming out with this NOW? If his claim was legit, why didn't his mom cash in long ago by either demanding child support or going public with it? Just doesn't add up.

In my opinion and the way I see it-

Prince was married to the music. That was his love. That was his partner.

He was surrounded by beautiful women all the time. He could have had anything he wanted but in the end if they stood in the way of what he was trying to accomplish, he couldn't keep them around.

I'm sure some of us WISH we were his life partner. Even as a queer woman, I'd totally would have married the dude. Wouldn't have slept with him, would have let him carry on with whoever ... But yeah I wish I was his best friend to the end. I dont think he lacked that though. I think he had plenty of people he was close to.

We don't know the inner workings of his inner circle. To me I always just figured Paisley Park was a modern day hippie commune. People living, working, and loving together. Just because his life doesn't fit with the "normal nuclear family" ideals we seem to still be trying desperately to hold on to... Doesn't mean Prince didn't got out feeling loved. Sure the image we get from the media about his final days seems bleak. However he was making a song a day still and by the sounds of it, he was most likely making music right up til he died. So he was in the comfort of what he loved.


bow bow bow bow
Totally agree. People mustn't put on a pedestal their own lifestyles & ideals & assume it's the norm for all of us. P had plenty of people around him who loved him. He was a shy loner & was comfortable being alone. The world was his oyster & he celebrated freedom of expression & we should respect that!! 💜💜💜💜

Where were these people who loved him when he really needed them? He was fragile, not well physically or mentally, and just a few days before had a major health scare. He shouldn't have been left alone on the night of April 20th.

And no, he wasn't comfortable being alone all the time. His biggest fear was dying alone, it's heartbreaking to know that's exactly what happened.

i forget who said that, but i remember it. someone who interviewed him maybe? that he was afraid to die alone.

so often the universe knows no mercy or justice.

i hope he didn't know what was happening to him...

Obviously he was looking for his soulmate.

Possibly she could have given him the strength to cope his pain without the medication. sad

She wasn't conscious that it was him. She only found out about everything this month.

Who do you think it was? And, how did she find out?

Hello, all lovelyone's interesting comments ...maybe P had some around he dated here and there or just dreamed .... like fantasizing but they were around he just didn't go all the way.

and was ok with it that way until
..he could finally have the one he really wanted....

this is just a thought on my part, I can say it's not a fact....

but it seems that Prince was very imaginative and very dreamy liking to watch woman he likeed and was attracted to for whatever reasons ....

from afar.... then seek them out or or engage them just enough...to see if if it was what he wanted or imagined or hold his interest

I do want to say it seemed to be that engage him self in a respectable manner ...with those that mused him in some way ...

That were with him in presence at whatever time.

I did see where there was one young lady a few of his inner circle people knew...that was around that said her and P were together ...

But speaking on if he had someone... maybe he did have someone ... l remember someone saying he said a the Atl Ga concert oh I had to go speak with my fiancee,

So maybe he had someone, however I do think there was maybe a connection P may have had that... may have been deeper but....time and things didnt allow for it to happen....
He spoke much about the metaphysical with who he wanted .... to be with ...metaphysically.

That being said it could be that he or him or his love couldn't get to each other ....though

he had many all around.... it happens in life.

But again just my thoughts and opinions

I truly could be all wrong

One can have many friends but at a certain age when you close the door at night I think someone like Lrince who wrote so much about romantic love was missing a partner.

I agree he was looking for wife material even though surrounded by beautiful young women. I don't think he knew what he wanted because it never showed up when he got older somehow.

I think be wanted someone intelligent, strong, kind, humble and more than anything: spiritual. Eating healthily and respecting one's body is a part of a spiritual journey.

If the right woman had come along he would've accepted her just as is. Love and respect have a way of doing that.

The only way 2 people can truly be happy is to be free. No one controlling or even implying what the other should do. Prince could've done that with the right woman.

He was in love with himself, and it was not just his music. He cared too much about how he looked, too. His makeup, his hair, his costumes were perfect to the last detail. It's understandable that he could not maintain a long lasting relationship and a family. Geniuses never can.

Wait ...so are you saying that someone was in a relationship with Prince, but didn't know she was his soulmate until he passed ? Did she not know they were in a relationship ? Did he know ? Just trying to make sense of this .
How does that work ?

I agree , and sometimes I think that by surrounding himself with all the young ...not just young, but a lot younger women , he was trying to stay young himself more or less.
And I don't believe that one of the young friends or whatever they were would have ultimately ended up being his " for the rest of his life partner ".
That's just me though .

I think it would bring some comfort to some if he were with someone or married. If he were truly happy with someone, it would say in essence that he loved and was loved in return. I don't think it was a necessity for him, however, and I think that to some degree he might have enjoyed the quest for his "one" and imaginings of who she would be; it was one of the sources of his creativity that he applied to his song writing. I think he may have yearned to have a special woman in his life, but I also think that maybe he was in no hurry and could patiently wait. I think a potential mate for him would feel like an undeniable pull, gravitational is how he said it himself, that he couldn't get away from. I guess what I'm trying to say is that maybe he was happier on his own than being with the wrong woman.

Also...I recently bought a commemorative edition book on Prince and there was one article in there where Ingrid Chavez spoke about Prince: "He [Prince] lives almost in some sort of fantasy," says Ingrid Chavez. "He talks about the life he wants to live more than he lives it." I know this is just coming from her perspective, but it really struck a chord with me. It's like he wanted so many things, a phenomenal love in particular, and fantasized about it, wrote songs about it, but he had difficulty applying it to reality.

i agree that he was patiently waiting for the right one. he told rs in 2014 it would be up to God if he got married again. and sometimes dreamers and idealists hsve trouble reconciling their vision with cold hard reality. in their head everything works out fine, but then the real world gets in the way.

I am a loner as well, and I really do like it that way. As far as Prince goes, I think that perhaps his upbringing played a part in why he couldn't maintain a long lasting relationship. He once said that the only one he could count on was himself, because " what if everybody split ? " He also experienced others' alterior motives early on as he got more famous, so it's understandable that it would be hard for him to truly trust many people, as much as he may have wanted to. He was a victim of his own genius. Loved by millions (us), but sadly, never to find lasting love for himself. I miss him so.

Everything you think is true

i think prince was the kind of guy who just plain loved women. period. as a matter of course he would always have had a harem, and any women who chose him would have had to deal with that. i think they all had trouble with that bit wink

.

not to mention, prince's real true love was music, and he required quite a bit of freedom to pursue his visions. whoever he was with would have had to have been able to handle him not being there most of the time.

.

i guess yeah i do wish there'd been someone in his life after his first collapse to hire private doctors to stay at paisley park for round-the-clock care, if he would have ever permitted a partner to take such action on his behalf. which could have saved him, sad

.

but even though it seems like he "died alone" apparently without ever finding that one special person, i want to believe that prince knew how much we all loved him and that he really wasn't 'alone' at the end. he had to be aware of how many millions of devoted fans he had worldwide.

.

people who would drop everything and drive out/fly out/hitchhike to paisley park at midnight, stand in line in the rain and cold for hours to see him and listen to his music, admire him from a distance. he HAD to have felt that love. heart so i don't think he died alone at the end.

.

also (and this is just my very personal opinion) i truly believe he will someday find 'the one'. if not this lifetime then maybe the next. spooky electric - quantum entanglement - reality on a spiritual and quantum level where it is absolutely inevitable that he will enjoy lifetimes with his true love.

.

for allwe know he has been reunited with denise and they are together right now, in another dimension, beyond the veil.

.

time is just an illusion, and so are life and death. love is eternal. i like to think prince knew this and did not feel alone at the end.

Well, he was my soulmate alright, but I doubt he would have considered me his.. LOL Not nearly young and beautiful enough.

I have made the same life choice that he did in the last ten years or so. I probably can't explain that to someone with completely different beliefs and values, but I have chosen to remain single and celibate and have done so for thirty years now. After a wild youth..

If I find someone it's forever to me. I listened to Empty Room for the first time yesterday and I heard the pain of someone genuinely expecting forever. Also I want someone with the same values and beliefs and that just makes it that much harder to find the right one (or A right one as I don't really believe in the one and only). Especially when you are not like everybody else, and I sure ain't. I'm sure many here can relate as we are drawn to our dear Prince because he made it legit to be unlike everyone else.

I can't speak for Prince. Obviously. But I can describe how I feel about the same situation. I am very happy with the freedom it gives me to do what I choose and to be alone when I need to. Mostly I am perfectly fine with the many friends I have and with my life in general. Some days I am lonely. But aren't we all? I do have the what if thoughts occasionally, but when I look back at the potential partners in my past I am more than happy it never got any further than it did.

And like Prince I am waiting for a better world. Listen to the song 4ever and you will get an idea. No doubt all I really had to write was listen to that song. As always, he says it so much better. smile If it is God's will, both Prince and I will find our respective soulmates then, and if not we won't miss it. I doubt I'll do it now as it hasn't happened yet and I'm not really looking. cool

My point is this - it is almost impossible to understand if you think this life is all there is. I don't and neither did Prince. But with the hope and expectations of the future that we both share(d), this is just a short period in time and not really all that important in the big picture. In this world, things are much harder.. Including relationships.

Hope this makes any sense to anyone and can perhaps make it feel less awful that he chose this lifestyle. It was his choice and his alone. I think it made him happy and occasionally unhappy as all our choices do from time to time under imperfect circumstances.

Not necessarily. What I really wish is that he'd had an acupuncturist, an herbalist, a physical therapist and a massage therapist.
