“[It’s] because I was very high when I gave birth to Prince. And he would be called John James all the time. Very traditional, very nice,” she explained.

‘I had him [and] I looked [at him] and I thought, ‘You don’t look like John James’.”

She said she and Tyson started looking at different names when Prince came up.

“And I thought, ‘Prince, he must be a prince, he’s my prince,'” she recalled.

“And three days later I was like, ‘Oh, I named that baby Prince.’ So that’s how he got Prince.”

On how three more sons got the same name, she said Tyson likes to say it’s because “he’s the Gypsy King and these kids all got Prince because he’s the King.”

However, she said that wasn’t entirely true.

“When we had another boy, he said, ‘Well, you can’t call one a prince without the other. They all have to be princes.'”

Despite telling him it was crazy, she agreed to go ahead as long as they didn’t tell anyone.

“And then that didn’t work either and we ended up with four Princes,” she laughed.

“It’s very confusing and if you also book a holiday, they actually think you are telling lies.”
