Prince's Sister Tyka Nelson Recalls Their Last Phone Call, Says He 'Kept Avoiding Questions'

'How are you really?' Tyka Nelson asked her older brother, Prince, near the end. But he wouldn't answer her directly.

The legendary musician died at the age of 57 on April 21, 2016 after an accidental overdose of fentanyl at his Paisley Park home in Chanhassen, Minnesota. Tyka is the only sibling who shared the same mother and father as Prince -- Mattie Della Shaw and John Lewis Nelson. Tyka recalls, noting she hadn't noticed that Prince had any illnesses, though she did realize he'd lost weight after hugging him.
