A judge has officially confirmed what Prince’s sister Tyka thought – he did not have a will. The bank he used for many years (which is the one Tyka named in her filed documents to start probate proceedings,) has been appointed to manage his assets, as well as become the administrator of Prince’s estate for the next 6 months. After the 6 month process, a personal representative can be appointed. It has a possibility of getting messy, as all 6 of Prince’s siblings (1 full, 5 half) are entitled to their equal share of his $150 million fortune. One would assume it would go to Tyka, who is Prince’s only full sibling, but you can’t be sure. As it was today, Prince’s half brother, Omarr Baker, appeared at the hearing.
There has been speculation regarding whether Prince left a will or not, and his sister has just confirmed that he has not. Tyga has officially filed legal documents to open a probate case, asking the judge to appoint a “special administrator” for his estate, since there is no executor named in a will. Under Minnesota law, assets of someone without a will are to be divided equally amongst their next of kin, and full and half siblings are treated the same. This would mean that there are 6 people set to inherit Prince’s fortune – Tyka, his only full sibling, and his 5 half-siblings John, Norrine, Sharon, Alfred and Omarr. And could it be possible that Prince was a father?
A few years ago, Prince did an interview with talk show host Travis Smiley and was asked about his song “Dreamer”‘s inception. He went on to clarify that it was inspired by American civil rights activist Dick Gregory, a social critic, writer, and entrepreneur and the chemtrails he used to see in the sky. He goes on to wonder about their cause, President Obama and leads into why he’s never voted. Was Prince on to something? Hit the jump for the interview.
Second line parades are very popular in New Orleans. They are now holding one in honor of Prince and boy is it packed.
