The Most Beautiful: My Life with Prince is a Memoir by Mayte Garcia, dancer and first wife of pop star Prince, released a year after his death in April 2016. Born to Puerto Rican parents, Mayte followed her military father to Germany as a teen and built a successful career as a Belly Dancer, until her Stage Mom changed the 16-year-old's life by handing a videotape of her performing to one of Prince's posse at a concert. Prince and Mayte began corresponding and after a couple years she joined his band, the New Power Generation. She helped create his 1992 "Love Symbol Album," in which Prince told a story about "Princess Mayte" while incorporating some of the Middle Eastern sounds of her belly-dancing music.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Mayte recalls the exhausting but thrilling work with a man who lived his life as a work of art and pushed himself to his physical limits (which unfortunately led to the painkiller addiction that eventually killed him). When she was 21 they married and she instantly got pregnant, much to the couple's delight. However, their son, Amiir, was born with a rare genetic disease and died only a week after birth. After a second pregnancy miscarried, Prince fell in with former Sly and the Family Stone bassist Larry Graham, who converted him to the Jehovah's Witness faith, leading Prince to believe that Amiir's death was God's punishment for his sins. Mayte strongly disagreed, and things went downhill from there. | |

Amicable Exes: Prince and Sheila E. were engaged for a time before Mayte came on the scene, but remained friends and sometime bandmates. Mayte considers her one of the family. | |

Cloud Cuckoolander: Well, this is Prince. Mayte is enough on his wavelength that she considers it merely artistic rather than kooky to change his name to an unpronounceable symbol or repaint his house every few years to reflect his mood, but she does start to see him as this once he starts spouting Jehovah's Witness theology. | |

Clueless Boss | |
| The Most Beautiful / int_df0fdac4 | comment |
Clueless Boss: Prince, at least on the Diamonds & Pearls tour. Mayte's pay is so bad that she burns through her considerable belly-dancing savings and is reduced to scrounging leftovers from room-service carts. Yet the other members of the troupe are so in awe of Prince that they're shocked to even hear her complain. When Mayte finally confronts Prince, it turns out that he had no idea what his dancers were being paid, and he gives everyone a raise. | |
