Prince Cremated, Remembered at Private Ceremony, Report

Prince was cremated following the completion of his autopsy on April 22. The “Purple Rain” singer’s remains were cremated during an emotional ceremony held one day after his death. His loved ones, including sister Tyka Nelson, bid farewell to the icon before the cremation process started.

The American musician died at his Paisley Park estate near Minneapolis on Thursday morning after he was found collapsed in a lift. He was 57.

A private ceremony celebrating his life was held at Paisley Park on Saturday, attended by Prince’s sister Tyka Nelson and brother-in-law Maurice Phillips.

Prince’s body has been cremated and the “final storage” of his remains will be private, his publicist Yvette Noel-Schure said.

“A few hours ago, Prince was celebrated by a small group of his most beloved family, friends and his musicians, in a private, beautiful ceremony to say a loving goodbye,” she said.

“Prince’s remains have been cremated and their final storage will remain private.

“We ask for your blessings and prayers of comfort for his family and close friends at this time.

“The cause of death remains unknown and it will be at least four weeks before we receive the results of the autopsy.
