Sad news. I'm struck by the thought that Prince is slipping further out of living memory. It's awful how many of his family, those who knew him, worked with him, are passing away, considering how early/ young Prince left us.

I know, I feel like it's time now more than ever for everyone who knew him well, to write books. I wish Tyka would have written a book, same with Cat.

What actually happen?

Was she sick?

No matter what, aparently Prince stayed in contact withher his whole life.

How sweet.

May both souls rest in peace.

She was writing her own memoir which will reportedly be released soon.
I'd like to read it, because shortly before his death, Prince was asking her for more information about their family.
I'm hoping she will fill in the blanks that he was unable to.

Yes. She was too ill to appear at her farewell event at the Dakota in MPLS last June, although the event did proceed.
Reportedly (per TMZ) the EMTs had visited her home several times for various emergencies.

Oh I didn't know that, I thought she had attended.

If this is true, that sounds great.

I'd like to read that indeed.

How independant can she release her own memoires?

I mean... the estate won't be able to block that, right?

I'm not an expert, and I know she sold her part...

It's just that I don't trust the estate anymore on whatever they might be (conytractual) releated to (if so).

Tyka did write an autobiography in 2009 called "Mama Never Taught Me How To Sing."
