Prince's protégée (and maybe girlfriend) Judith Hill is opening up about the flight that she took with her hero six days before his death, when he lost consciousness (apparently due to an overdose), forcing the private jet to make an emergency landing to make an emergency landing.

The singer, who was one of three passengers on the plane, opened up to the New York Times about the harrowing journey and the moment she realized something was very, very wrong.

Recounting the moment the rock legend nodded off, she said, "His eyes fixed. Thankfully, I happened to be looking into his face."

The singer, who may look familiar because she was also Michael Jackson's protege at the time of his death as well as the documentary 20 Feet From Stardom, said that when she and the other passenger, Prince's friend Kirk Johnson, could not revive the Purple One, they radioed for help in Chicago.

"We knew it was only a matter of time; we had to get down,” she continued. “We didn’t have anything on the plane to help him."

The plane ended up making an emergency landing in Moline, Illinois, where the "Purple Rain" singer was given a shot of Narcan, which is a drug used to treat opioid overdoses. Hill says that the singer came to quickly and but the time the group arrived at the Trinity Moline hospital, the 57-year-old was awake, and "very cooperative" and "serious about getting help."

The legend says he told Hill that he know he'd escaped death, saying, "I had to fight for my life. I remember hearing your voices from afar and saying to myself, 'Follow the voices, follow the voices, get back in your body, you gotta to do this.'"

The 32-year-old added, "He said it was the hardest thing he'd ever done, to get back into his body like that."

Sadly, Prince died of an opioid overdose a mere six days after the incident …

When asked about her knowledge of his addiction, Hill claims she was "unaware" of his issues with pain killers.

She said, "He was quick on his feet. Never said anything, that this is hurting, never a sign of struggle. That's why it's all very shocking."

As to the nature of Hill and Prince's relationship, she kept tight lipped about it, describing it as, "very intense."

"I deeply cared for him," she added. "He told me that he loved me and that he would always be there for me."
