AceShowbiz - A new report claimed that Prince's tragic passing was not accidental. Two months after he died, In Touch said that the late music icon left a suicide note hinting that he intentionally overdosed on opioids before his body was found in the elevator of his Minnesota home back in April.
The note was reportedly found "among the clutter of Prince's notebooks and papers" by a staffer who hid it from the authorities and public believing "it was what the deeply private star would have wanted."
"He wanted to be remembered as one of, if not the greatest, pop stars of all time, someone who spread love and joy through his music - not someone who'd done this to himself," a so-called close friend of Prince told the publication.
According to the pal, the suicide note was "scrawled in big letters on a page ripped from a notebook" and read, "Need something to make the pain stop, even if it means ending everything somehow. It's time to go, I didn't mean to leave soon. I didn't mean to leave now. Love, Love, Love. "
Prince did spend years suffering from knee and hip pain prior to his death. "He knew he would finally do himself in with a deadly dose of opiates," the source told the outlet, adding that Prince was "sick and tired of living" and had been thinking about committing suicide for quite some time.
However, Gossip Cop can confirm that the In Touch claims are all "not true." A "reliable source" close Prince told the site that the Purple One didn't end his life on purpose and he didn't leave any kind of suicide note.
