      It was just a fling to him 😂 nothing more or else he wouldve married her like she wanted. And when he said he didn't wanna marry her, she threw a temper tantrum. He also felt like she was using him for a come up, which is messed up on so many levels. He wasn't serious about her to begin with and wasn't planning on it. They also weren't together as long as ppl think. It was quite short actually. I'm an insider

    I can see why he loved her. I think their personalities were a lot alike & she prob. reminded him of his younger self & enjoyed teaching her & helping her develop her talent. Im sure it was an honor to work with him & be his friend. For her age, she/Prince were friends a long time at least 8 years. He was working with her when he was with Bria Valente. Ive seen pics of them leaving the hotel with Bria seemingly taking her time getting to the car. Lol. Now we know she was in Love with him & they dated for awhile (her love letter released by the police found in his bedtoom now that the investigation is over).

      During the investigation a love letter from her from 2011 was found in his bedroom and now that the investigation's over the police released everything including the Paisley photos incl. his death photo so yes Prince & Andy did date for a time and she was definitely a love with him but I think he was dating Judith hill when he died not sure too much is very strange about her of how quickly she told all his business about the plane in the hospital and people that date him usually don't talk that much but the fact that his tour was just him and his bodyguard and the pilot were the only other people on the plane and she wasn't a part of his tour, idk & that she went back to LA . There's no way I could've left him. Due to outrage the police went back & pulled the photos offline But as I was scrolling and got to the bottom Of a man laying there and I dropped the phone Because I didn't want to see it and I would never want to dishonor Prince. You know some people saw it & copied before it was taken down.

    • @artfull334
      @artfull334 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      S T Thanks for the info. Yes I read the letter, she was definitely smitten with Prince. Wonder why it ended, Andy is nice and has been low profile about Prince and seems loyal to him, unlike some. Yeah It was odd that Judith didn’t stay by his side. I just read the detective report of her account of the night on the plane. Just after the concert she recalls how depressed he was, saying he was bored and just wanted to sleep, even when on stage and that he’d done all he needed to do. He was in a bad place. Maybe Judith was post traumatised by the experience, maybe a more mature woman would have coped better. I know those pictures of Prince, so awful to see that so easily on the internet, where’s the respect for him😔

      Yes she was in a romantic relationship with him. I think it was around or between 2011-2012 . This year around the anniversary of his death more info came out about his personal life. Kim Berry, Prince's hair stylist, actually said in an interview that they've dated. I forgot which interview though. You can look it up though.They also released a love letter Andy wrote to him.

      The interview is from April or May 2017. She broke down while giving her speech at Prince's Apollo Hall of Fame induction in June of 2016 and did appear to be heartbroken. Also while playing at The Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis last April. She still plays down any idea that she and Prince were romantically involved when asked in interviews and prefers to focus on their work relationship.
