in the book, prince pleaded 2 her to return to his hotel room to flush his pills down the toilet...prince had an opioid problem, some of his fans are delusional to this fact.

Well, did she look at the labels on the pills she was flushing, just to get an idea of the problem ? Wouldn't any wife ? What were they ?? So what if he was self-medicating a bit to deal with the baby, the doctor probably gave it to him. A few alleged instances does not a drug addict make. She needs to have a seat and rest her ass for her impending drag.

umm she found him unconscious with vomit and wine all over the floor, the doctors had to pump his stomach, his excuse was he took the pills cause he could hear his heart beating ( whatever that means) this was before she gave birth, she had to flush pills down the toilet because he was taking to many. look i was in denial with this regarding prince but he had an opioid problem. it doesn't make him a bad person.

Well it seems after numerous sites I visit, I am seeing most negative comments coming from here. So once again the org doesn't dictate or have any influence of public opinion and purchasing habits when it comes to P. People on other sites that I visited encourage Mayte to tell her story.

Outside the org, people are siding and rooting for Mayte. Especially women who also lost their child (ren). So as long as Mayte continues to do her, she is going to be okay. I also hope she is going to be okay as she dealing with her MS.

lol - It's not. But obviously it is to you because you keep posting about what she's doing and how she's posting this or that to IG or what videos she is posting, what she is doing, and how you have more on her that is not good. Phew! If I kept up with someone like that, it would be tiring. I don't keep up with Mayte like that. I have no desire or need to. I've posted on here because of all the hypocrisy, "I ain't going to be buying her book, but OMG! look what she said in this article in which she shares an excerpt of the book! She is scandalous!" No, she's just a woman who happened to be married to Prince and is writing about her experience.

You all are right. No one would be interested or know who she was if it weren't for who she had married. But that's beside the point. She is known and people are interested because of who she married. You can't change that.

I will defend anyone's right to tell their story, to speak their truth, to talk about what they've experienced. I don't know, maybe it's the social worker in me that knows that talking about difficult times helps one to come to terms with those times and begin the healing process. Or maybe it's because I've been silenced in the past, prevented from talking about things that I experienced and once I found my voice and began to speak up about my trauma, I've realized I would never attempt to silence another.

Will I buy her book? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. I've not made up my mind yet. But hearing you all bashing her is causing me to lean towards buying it, just to support another woman who is being judged so harshly by others and to support not silencing someone from speaking their truth.

I just find it funny that those who profess the loudest against purchasing her book are on a thread discussing that book and an article with an excerpt from that book. If they truly weren't interested in the book, then they would have just ignored this thread after the first time they stated they weren't interested in the book or her. To keep coming back, implies definite interest. If you ain't interested, then whatchu doing here on a thread about the book? And if you ain't interested in what she is doing, why you keep posting things about what she is doing? Sounds like interest in what she is doing, to me.

Well said. I also know a couple people who are going to order the book in result of how she is being drag.

So the more people bashing her the more support she is going to get. Haters are basically unpaid promoters.

She couldn't resist the temptation to settle the score one last time after feeling betrayed for all these years. She has been making offhand remarks, dropping hints here and there, and soliciting help in any way she could to get Prince out of her system while simultaneously making some cash.. A brooding broad she became. The boyfriend's didnt work, the shelter didn't work, that wretched ratchet show didn't work, selling off your most beloved and cherished items from your marriage didnt work, adopting a child didnt work... something has to work!

Many of them have used certain mediums to benefit from the man. Some ran and started church, others ran to facebook, some to twitter, some started painting as if Picasso had possessed them, some started touring, some resurrrected singing careers(sit down Sharon).

But, but, but, the book! This might work because now the world knows me through Prince and they will pay me to read it! I get to make money off of his name finally! It's her right, so ask yourself, you think this is out of love? Maybe in Tagalog it is.

The problem is, in English, selling this story would best be described as a shrewed definition of success when you diminish in any way the hand that fed you.This has nothing to do with Prince. Ulitmate betrayal. To the public square!

Really do you go to People because unless they scrubbed the comments section people were harsh.

50/50 reaction and likely some of the hating comments came from this people on this thread since People magazine articles had been mention here. Again Mayte is going to be fine.

Thank you and I hope she will be and wish her well. Shame on people reading the book for free after saying they won't buy the book..some will read it just to be able to trash. As a migraine sufferer, it is not uncommon to have nausea and/or vomiting....just saying for those jumping on the druggie bandwagon.

I am not against Mayte writing this book- but how can you say that? I'm seeing a lot of negative comments towards her writing this book on Instagram.

I am just going by based on the places I went to. Like Mayte, I am speaking about my truth. And no organism in this planet can able to take that away regardless how bitter they are.

I got a life. I dont have time to even check her on instagram much less stalking on there. It is funny how the ones who can't stand knows more about what is going with her than the ones who doesn't have issues with her.

What a stupid reason to buy the book. If youre interested in the story buy it. But why have a hissy fit and say youre buying it because somebody dragged Mayte and said Misty was a better dancer for instance (Mayte dragged Misty and said Misty copied her). Wow. People need to grow up.

It doesn't matter the reason because at the end of the day its their money, not yours. So unless, you have any financial input or help buying that book, you have no business trying to tell others the appropriate choice to buy the book.
