Posted by Zora Stowers on Thursday, March 28, 2024

In 1990, 16-year-old Garcia met Prince backstage in Germany after he saw a tape of her dancing. She soon moved into his Paisley Park home and he became her guardian. After graduating high school she began working as his Dancer. At 19, he instructed her to get on birth control thus beginning their sexual relationship. On February 14, 1996, after a four-year courtship, Prince and Mayte married. Their only child, Amiir, was born on October 16, 1996. He died six days after his birth due to Pfeiffer syndrome. A week later, the couple were interviewed on Oprah, where they pretended their son was still alive. According to Garcia, they were unable to process his death. "We believed he was going to come back, that souls come back. We didn't want to acknowledge he was gone." After a subsequent miscarriage, their marriage deteriorated and they divorced in 2000.
