George Lopez loaned Prince’s family $20G

Comedian George Lopez reportedly loaned Prince’s financially-strapped family about $20,000 pending results of the singer’s locked estate.

Allegedly, Prince and Lopez had a close, but private relationship.

The television host is pitching in by lending an allowance to Prince’s family — initially paid for out of Prince’s pocket — as legal experts pour over the singer’s estate.

It could take several years to sort through Prince’s assets because relatives and attorneys had no luck finding the late singer’s will. Prince’s sudden death on April 21 at his Paisley Park home in Minnesota prompted an estate dispute.

Prince has one surviving full-sibling, Tyka Nelson, and six half-siblings who have petitioned as Prince’s heirs in court documents.

Couples Stopped Texting Each Other For A Month – Can You Do It?

These couples agreed to give up texting each other for 30 days.

The month began and IT WAS HARDER THAN THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE.

And even though they could talk on the phone, this couple was experiencing dropped calls and terrible service. Basically, they weren’t able to talk unless they were together in person.

It was hard not to text when something stupid or funny happened, and also when one of them was late to meet up.

At the halfway point, they were starting to get bummed out.

On the plus side, it made their connection even stronger.

At the end of it all, this couple realized that they can get by with less communication.

“We definitely hung out a lot more, and spoke on the phone a lot more.”

One couple had the toughest time not texting and even broke it a couple times.

“We really hit our stride like mid-way through. And, just like an addict, we relapsed.”
