I will always love Prince

[@ladylucile15]

It sounds like he was caught up in the moment. Wondered if he ever purchased her a ring and how long did the engagement last. Love Prince but he was a hot mess when it came to relationships

[@ACinemafanatic]

Well I think his true love was vanity because he said she was like a female version of him

[@CJohnson19121]

He did purchase a ring.

[@AC-mp7cx]

he was a hot mess in communication in general

[@jazzjones4954]

I adored prince since I was a little girl. Cried when he passed. Was so heart broken. I love prince ❤💯

[@pickzkickz]

It never fell through but she would have completed Prince.

[@KFordVideos]

I was more captivated by the Marvin Gaye story to be honest. She was hitting the Milly Rock at 0:56 lol

[@susanpayne5148]

It has been told that the last few years before he passed that they had a falling out. Allegedly, she had a “charity” and Prince found out his and several others that donated a lot of money was being pocketed by Shelia. She’s been riding his coattails for years! Especially since he died.

[@kiefferz5556]

Exactly

[@sabrina28]

Smh that's a snake

[@CocoGGomez]

Because they were on tour together the long hours and he started to get more explicit with his lyrics and Sheila E being a born-again Christian she wanted to stay away from that so she had a decision to make and during the long hours and tour she realized they were better off as friends that's one reason why he kept her around all these years the love of his life was Denise Matthews everything that he said about the two women that he married where the exact same things he said to Vanity /Denise Matthews it was almost like a slap in her face because she left him Purple Rain was about her and his life he proposed to her but he was not faithful and she was not willing to share the man that she loved she said she needed one man and he needed many women the women that married him were willing to share him when you truly love a man you're not going to share him!! They like to pretend they didn't know but you know when your man doesn't come home and he still calling his ex vanity he never cut her out of his life he even interfered when she got married and she end up getting a beating because he called the house and told her to think of him in a very special way he also sent her a letter with a dozen of and the letter was written in his handwriting which her husband accused her of having an affair she wasn't she just told him Prince is the only man she truly loves just because you love someone doesn't mean they're meant for you I find it very strange and sad two months later after her passing Prince passed away as well!!

[@latinlobster]

You kinda lost me with the lack of punctuations in your comment......but I understand your point.

[@purpleflower3839]

Thank you for the explanation. I can tell you are a true prince fan.

[@ziggyflame6988]

What? that’s not entirely true. That’s not what the members from the revolution said. There’s a bunch of different interviews of the revolution talking about why vanity quit. She quit not just because of him cheating but because she wanted a million dollars and he said no one else is going to be getting paid the same as him. They were also arguing because vanity wanted purple rain to be a romance movie just about her and him dating and prince said no, it’s about me and the revolution. He said the same thing he told vanity to both of his wife’s? Umm that’s weird. I honestly don’t think he was in love with vanity, Or else he would’ve married her and respected her. I think he did trust her a lot compared to some other people because she never spoke badly about him. If you pay attention to who he has dated, they all tend to look like each other. For example at that time, Carmen Electra looks like anna fantastic. Bria valente looks like mayte and Manuela looks somewhat similar to vanity.

[@asiawalker776]

The best tribute Ever he will always be in my heart

[@suec8748]

I love her so much

[@latinlobster]

Sheila E had been originally proposed in 1978 by Santana, but declined because he was already married. She has had relationships with other women.

[@LACraig621]

All us beautiful people hit that wall sometime in our lives. Thank got I had the sense to go around it.

[@tellemartin6663]

Sheila E was my girl but everyone knew Sheila e was second to Vanity. Vanity was his soulmate. But yeah i would pick Sheila over Mayte anytime. Mayte to me seemed to always have a motive for marrying Prince!

[@Domino1972]

please stop with the soul mate stuff...

[@ascejim]

I think maybe was just super young and overwhelmed. They had something real together. Just a very turbulent time near the end of their relationship.

[@aprilwest1883]

@@ascejim middle aged man married a girl . He made Mayte act like a puppet . Tired of her and dumped her.

[@MsDeb60]

telle martin I totally agree.

[@aprilwest1883]

Prince had a motive to marry Matte. He first groomed her as a teenager.

[@kimsalama8064]

Wish they would have married. Imagine the different trajectory their lives would have spun. Can only imagine.

[@origmnd]

Disaster....they were both doing drugs

[@torrrrezzz2348]

She looks great!!! The average woman does not look like her at 60!! I'm always happy to see celebs age gracefully and still look beautiful vice the ones that get tons of plastic surgery and end up looking unrecognizable with big fat lips.

[@penel2436]

Torrr Rezzz. Don't know what or where you are looking but I have seen some fine women 60 and older. Pity you haven't.

[@Ken-dg4dm]

In a podcast interview recently, Cat Glover said she lied

[@Aquaboogie68]

Yes,..... Cat did say that!!!

[@mshbk1326]

Wait wait, who lied about what?

[@Aquaboogie68]

Cat said Sheila E lied that Prince asked her to marry him. Check out the Prince Podcast ,( Cat talks about working with Prince on Sign o the Times, Lovesexy)

[@jeaninemc9619]

Appolonia said she didn’t believe it happened either.

[@MCHayle]

@@Aquaboogie68 And I believe her. All of Prince's camp said that Sheila is an opportunist and a liar, which is why Prince cut her off.

[@j12aka]

Prince never married her. Why does it say husband? Oh my, who writes this stuff?

[@basl4156]

Why didn't they get married?

[@LWall-fv5ep]

Andrew Brunnette 💜 NO SHE DIDN'T!!

[@princessugar2659]

It was a stage act. The sign of the time Prince had a proposal song Forever in my life and he sang the women's name he wanted to marry. Prince told this girl to come up to stage but she was shy and Prince acted on with Sheila. Anyway almost same thing happened when he took S E back in 2000's. in LA concert. Prince sang I wanna be your lover for the same girl he wanted to marry in the 80's and he told her to come up to stage. She didn't do that and she told Sheila you go up. Prince perplexed and very fast switched the song.

[@helpinghandsolutions8665]

Sugar Babe I don't know if that is true. However when he song that song Shelila paid him no mind. Also he was sleeping with Cat at that time so I think that's why Sheila never married Prince. Plus her and Cat left Prince at the same time.

[@princessugar2659]

How do you know he was sleeping with Cat and when? S E didn't paid him no mind because she knew her and she knew her name. When Prince and his gf was back together Prince was not slept with anybody else. Its possible before he did that. He really loved her and he put her name in the song many times. Sheila and Cat knew her and she was there in the Germany concert. Prince put her into a special place etc.

[@jonylawson73]

Damn I thought Sheila stopped Bs ing ...

[@davidravo6247]

Wow!!!!

[@johnmoore4714]

Prince 🤴 will never be anything like Prince 💜♂️.

[@B.Jewels]

Why did she even bother telling everybody about this supposed marriage proposal. Obviously Prince never wanted anybody to know or he would have shared it himself all he wanted was he private life to be kept private why not respect that. UGH!!!

[@princessugar2659]

I tell you why, because Prince told S E it's a stage act for the concert as a show and it's meant for his girlfriend in the concert crowd .! Sheila just like Mayte they grabbed the opportunity to be famous and make money in fake stories that make them look good on the public especially after Prince past away! They know he can't say it anymore to them to STOP lying and don't talk about my private life in the wrong way for your benefits!

[@B.Jewels]

@@princessugar2659 Exactly!

[@bmla88]

She can do whatever she wants, it’s her story and she was close to Prince. Who are you?

[@rishabhaniket1952]

It is common knowledge b4 she even told it. And Sheila E is a closer confidant and authority on Prince than anyone else.

[@Sushiyoda]

Dude….do you understand how crazy talented she is? Like, next level…

[@gracewebster692]

According to some of the band members they said it's not true. But hey, they were there not me.

[@StreetzCultureTV]

FOREVER BEAUTIFUL......I DON'T BLAME PRINCE🎉❤🎉

Sheila E don’t need to wear that dark smoke eye look! She needs do keep it bright shadows on her eyes.

As much as Sheila E loves Prince she knows that Prince is unfaithful he's too much of a womanizer thats why she turned him down. Plus Sheila E is equally matched to Prince but they always have that intimate connection even after he passed away Prince will forever be in Sheila Es heart

So sick of her lies prince was dating Wendys twin sister

News flash: you're going to get old too and your body will eventually betray you, and that's a fact. Come back and see us in 3 decades or more and then we can revisit that vacuous framing of aging and cavalier attitude 😂😂😂
