The elevator was in the background; they've covered it with a black curtain from what I could see.

According to the video with ET Online the elevator has been covered by a wall of records and other memorabilia. http://www.etonline.com/n...an_museum/

I wonder what it was I saw then...A doorway shrouded in a black curtain, with a security guard nearby...I'm glad it wasn't the elevator.

I must admit I got major goose bumps when they were stood next to the blocked off elevator

Sorry guys but everybody who was close to Prince knew he had no real relationship with his relatives, he had Douane working for him, he was his bodyguard around 1990 for a while and disappeared after that. Tyka was around only the last couple of years. And believe me, her only aim is his money..the ones who know the truth stay silent not to loose a piece of the money cake

Wow Prince fans can be really nasty.

yep and youre included in that....oh we havent forgot how u were when u first got here

I see this a lot on FB groups. Everyone is an expert on who Prince was/wasn't close to, what he would/wouldn't have wanted. Everyone in it for the money etc. Is this really the fan base he cultivated over all these years?

pupa1 said:

Tyka and Prince grew up together, she's his closest living relative. There may have been times when she was around and times when she wasn't..like many family's. Anyway, he had no children, no spouse and no parents. He left a sister. I don't see what your problem is. You sound ridiculous.

Didn't you know in the Princeworld you only have to buy his records and attend his concerts to become an expert on the mans close personal relationships.

If he disliked her why was she around the last years of his life. He also could have written a will and cut her out altogether. He took care of all his sibs and many friends. People don't spend money on people you do not care about.

Prince knew once he was gone his sister was his next of kin, unless he married again. If he didn't want that, as you said, he would have made other arrangements..but he didn't.

He was the executor of his dad's estate and his dad had no will so he knew what would happen.

I am sure there was more behind the doors that we as fans did not/do not know about, including his relationship with his family.

Prince appearantly provided for his family. There was something there, even if it was obligation, which I am not saying.

At this point, Tyka has her hand beyond full. In between the chaos and legal woes, she is trying to grieve and deal with Prince's passing.

laurarichardson said:

He left her at the helm..he must have trusted her. She looks like she's carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders..can't be easy.

I thought they said the wall of records was next to or opposite the elevator, NOT that they covered the elevator with the wall of records....??? Because isn't that elevator is used to also go down to lower level to The Vault from a previous video documentary somebody made...

John L. Nelson DID have a will.

He made P the executor and in his will he allowed P to make the decision whether any of his children would inherit from his estate.

In John L. Nelson's draft will (prior to executing his final will) he specifically gave his entire estate to P and specifically stated the rest of his children, including Duane, were disinherited.

i never read anywhere or got the impression from anyone that the 2 of them were close in any way

Just because you never read it anywhere or you got the impression from afar that he wasn't close to his sister doesn't mean the closeness didn't exist. In reality only the two of them know the depths of their relationship. Other people's comments on their relationship and your view of it are just opinions.

thats right thats my opinion is all i said.. i stand by it

im not an expert its just an opinion i could give a fuck less who he was or wasnt close to i saw her on tv and the impression the piece gave me was that it implied they were close i reject that claim thats it... who cares about your opinion on his fan base we all loved him for our own reasons

--- I went back and read the exhibits today and saw John's will and I could have sworn the court docs concerning John's estate said he died interstate. Where did these docs in the exhibit come from and why are the draft versions avalible? Anyway it makes my point that Prince knew enough about estates to make a decision about Tkya if she really bugged him he could have written out.

The documents were given to counsel for Brianna and VN through the "discovery" process.

They found John L's will in P's personal possessions.

Alrighty then, agreed you stand by your opinion. Until Prince tells me differently I'll remain firmly rooted in the ground with mine

No. They clearly said the wall of records is covering the elevator. Was that the only one in the building?
