Prince died without a will, according to court documents filed by his sister on Tuesday, potentially causing big complications for that star’s sprawling financial estate and musical legacy.

Ms. Nelson’s petition also listed five half-siblings as heirs, and asked the court to appoint a special administrator for the estate “because no personal representative has been appointed in Minnesota or elsewhere.” Minnesota law treats surviving half-siblings the same as full siblings, raising the possibility of a drawn-out family battle.

Let’s not forget the ex-wife, who will no doubt discover that the original divorce settlement cheated her of her fair share, so she’s owed it now, with interest.

I recall Luci Arnaz saying there wasn’t one nickel or a stick of furniture that wasn’t accounted for in her mother’s will.

They just yanked the Ninja thread

Poor guy
Scared

I know from a first hand source I trust he liked pretty boys and men

Maybe he was trying to resist the impulse or he admired women or wanted to procreate

But he sure gave off gay tells to me and the person I know who saw him in action I’d never ever question her veracity

No way

He was a self-willed guy, who didn’t listen to anyone. He did his own thing, cut his own deals.
