Exactly!! Some would like nothing more than to turn this into an ugly, mud-slinging thread. They probably want the moderators to lock it. | |

Nope, not Lala. She and Prince were more friends. And yes, Prince had "deep feelings" for Mayte to the end. But she's also not the lady I'm speaking of. With Andy, I think Prince was like a lot of people in that he wanted what he couldn't have. I think he had a wonderful love (or lust?) affair with Andy but it went back and forth and he never really found that woman who was special and unique enough who he wouldn't let go of. A third marriage was definitely a possibility for Prince but it would have had to have been with someone truly spiritually matured...a true love of mutual respect and caring without the games. This would've had to be a woman who was not concerned with "a new pair of shoes". | |

I know. I was surprised to see Lala back on the scene when things were seemingly going well with Andy. Andy and Prince were also performing at the same events after that but began traveling separately. Then Andy left for her European tour and never performed publically with him again...though they were seen out together in 2014. | |

There were more than likely women we have no knowledge of. Hopefully, you aren't referring to Mani as this "mystery" woman. Perhaps you are suggesting Bria, since there has been nothing out of her possibly since she is now a married woman, but she is also a JW and it seemed that relationship went up in thin air. Perhaps it fit the two year profile, the record and cut the cord. I dont think he ever would have found the "one". [Edited 11/25/16 9:58am] [Edited 11/25/16 9:59am] | |

Now I 'm wondering who your thinking of.Lala definitely seemed to be more than a friend.Did you listen to That Girl Thang? The lyrics suggest he was sprung. He wrote that he "he couldn't take a shower cause he smelled like her" but he hadn't seen her since the 3rd. "If Idont get clean real soon,it might be a minute until I make her swoon again,my best friend girl thang". | |

and now you are starting to sound like u know everything. why are u so insistant that prince, wanted and was looking for some spiritual soulmate stuff? he could have and would have had one by then. just like if he had truly wanted a stay at home wife he could have had one of those too. he didn't and u wanting to believe it doesn't make it so anymore than flyonthewall trying to make the AA thing a bigger thing than it was. --

There were many women after Mani...too many.From Liza to Lala. He looked like he was genuinely crazy over Andy at the beginning,despite the age difference he seemed really happy and in love for awhile which was nice to see. The affair began very quickly though.Seems Prince met her after one of his Forum shows and then he asked Andy to join the NPG and then whisked her off to tour Europe. They seem to be going strong for a good two years then Lala entered the picture again or maybe she was never fully out of the picture. | |

Is it ok to post Youtube videos with Prince in them now? | |

In an effort to bring this thread back on-topic, I give you this Instagram post from Prince (56 weeks ago). Regardless of whatever dalliances and friendships he was still carrying on, this Prince-generated GIF gives insight into where his head and heart were right up to the end. It was ALL about Andy, like the endless loop of this GIF. This would have been around the same time (November 2015) that he summoned the press to Paisley Park and played Oui Can Luv for them (and streamed his and Andy's acoustic album on TIDAL) and announced his Piano and Microphone tour, to open in Europe, to coincide with Andy's already announced European tour. There is no mistaking for whom this message was intended. As the person who posted it on Twitter noted, Prince's blues-y arrangement of "Time," singing Andy's verse, is "SOUL CRUSHING." I. REST. MY. CASE. #DropsMic

You're absolutely right. Thank you. You help me so much. I should have never said anything. | |

I don't know how he did it. Back and forth...with this one then that one. I think he liked the younger women since it kept him "active", attracted and kept things in 'working order" if you catch my meaning. Not sure women his own age would have done anything for him. | |

Yes some on Twitter at the time thought he was sending a message to Andy. Also in September he put up a clip on Twitter of Mononeon playing bass to a bit of Time with a bit of Andy scatting and P singing "i think i really need to make u my pet and put u in my lil cage" Above it he typed.SLOW DOWN TIME and COUNT EVRY KISS...URSELF. he seemed to be sending signals to somebody.He looks so good there btw...thanx 4 posting! | |

Well Mayte was actually his wife, and Vanity.. That is just not even comparable. Everything that's been shared and discussed in this thread can be said about a myriad of women that Prince dealt with. But i'll let you guys have your little moments for Andy. But one poster in this thread is too invsested..
How weird! I agree on the further bolded. I like Andy as a singer, she's one of his better proteges... She has her own career outside of Prince, which is great. She works as a commercial model. please understand I don't hate this chick or anything.. But I see no difference in any relations, how he led her career in comparison to the hundreds of women we can discuss.
but what's really sad is that that one woman who could've really pulled Prince in and changed his life - someone much more spiritually developed among other things, never got to him. At least not on earth
Yes! Hopefully more can come to this conclusuion.. It's upsetting [Edited 11/25/16 11:03am] i think i want ya | |

He had barely aged since this photo. He had truly come full circle, afro and all.

Thanks for posting! Prince seemed to love it! I wondered at the time if she was singing it to him since they seemed to be back together by then. [Edited 11/25/16 11:31am] | |
