This guy’s been her bodyguard/friend for years! He’s watched as man after man has tried to “make his career” by latching on to the legendary Queen of Soul.
I suppose Aretha’s attitude at this point is bordering on how rich men feel: you only live once…so what if she doesn’t love me, I’m getting what I want!”
Willie, perhaps, doesn’t mind how heavy Franklin is and likes her no matter how much weight she gains. Aretha has said, “I like having a man around the house.” Wasn’t her last boyfriend, the stud, Leon, from Madonna’s “Like A Prayer” video?

This is crap. Willie is my man. He don’t want her fat behind. It will never happen. His real woman is about to reveal herself. Get over it. You look nasty and stank. All he want to do is to meet celebrities and take pictures. Not to mention your fat behind stays in a restaurant. Wake up.

I was with willie when he started dating Aretha. He was a Fireman back then. I stayed at his aprtment often. She would call for him to come downstairs because she was afraid of hieghts. Willie does not love her and she may not love him. If he marries her, it will defintely be for money because he said, her pussy is so large it was like fucking air.
