Story here:



http://www.smobserved.com.../1680.html

Independent genetic testing at a Santa Monica lab, has verified that an unidentified man in his 30s whose mother allegedly had several liaisons with Prince in the 1980s, has DNA showing Prince has a 99% probability of being the man's father.

Prince Rogers Nelson died from a fentanyl overdose at his Paisley Park recording Minnesota home on April 21, 2016. He was 57. His staff found the singer dead in an elevator and called 911. He never married and died without a will. Prince left no children and no obvious heirs to his estimated net worth $300 million estate, other than one full sister, Tyka Nelson. So it was believed.

SMObserved.com has learned that genetic testing does in fact verify the authenticity of one claimant, to be the illegitimate child of the Purple Rain star. This child, a young man who is now an adult, is the son of Prince and a woman who, in the 1980's used to perform in the same clubs as the singer (though the mother was not a member of Prince's band).

The claimant, who never met his father, has negotiated with the Singer's estate and preserved his privacy (i.e., his mother desired anonymity) until today. However, if he wants to share in his estate, he will have to either settle his claim, or come forward with a legal filing in Court by the end of September.

Genetic testing has verified his claim, we have learned, so the Estate may ultimately settle with him. Since the Court must approve the settlement, the entire story will soon be public information whether or not the settlement is contested.

Yeah, I just posted a link to the story in the estate thread...I think it's still a rumor.

I don't like the way Dr. Funk tweeted this- he said he was waiting for confirmation on a bombshell story. I do think he LOVES to make sure everyone knows he gets info before others but did he get a heads up this would come out then ask around Prince camp to see if it's true or does he have google alerts for Prince Rogers Nelson and just posted it anyway?

ETA: nevermind he had posted it as a rumor. Still not down with that original tweet tho.

highly doubt Dr F would post this without some serious authenticity behind it. He's not in it for the attention. He loves P like we all do. Pretty shocking story to be honest.

Misleading post. Dr. Funkenberry plainly says,

"A rumor is being reported that PRINCE who passed away on April 21st, 2016, may have a living illegitimate son according to the Santa Monica Observer.

I want to stress this is a rumor and the estate has not made an official confirmation on this matter. The article advises the estate, which is being run by Bremer Trust, is are aware of the results."

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.
