Prince's Ex-Wife Mayte Garcia Says 'He's with Our Son Now'

Prince‘s ex-wife Mayte Garcia is speaking out about the entertainer’s sudden passing at the age of 57.

The 42-year-old dancer, who was the inspiration behind Prince‘s hit “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World,” says that he was “her everything.”

“I can’t even think of the words of what I’m feeling. This man was my everything, we had a family. I am beyond deeply saddened and devastated I loved him then, I love him now and will love him eternally. He’s with our son now,” she said in a statement.

Mayte met Prince in 1990 and was selected to be a dancer on his tour. The pair married in 1996 and welcomed their son Gregory, who unfortunately passed away a week after his birth from Pfeiffer syndrome. They divorced in 2000.

Our thoughts are with Mayte and Prince‘s family and friends during this difficult time.
