Tina Turner accumulated a staggering amount of wealth throughout the course of her successful career before passing away unexpectedly on May 24 at the age of 83.
The singer of What’s Love Got to Do with It was projected to be worth $250 million by a number of net worth calculators. Tina died spontaneously after a protracted illness that was made worse by an occurrence of intestinal cancer, high blood pressure, and a kidney transplant.
She passed away on December 8, 2022, less than six months after the tragic passing of Ronnie Turner, her youngest son. Her oldest son, Craig Turner, also died in 2018 after committing suicide.
What Tina Turner is worth
The fact that Tina was among the best-selling musicians of all time and had a net worth of $250 million is not surprising. In actuality, she enhanced her riches just before she died away by deciding to exchange an estimated $50 million for the rights to her songs, likeness, and image from BMG Rights Management.
Who will inherit Tina Turner’s fortune?
According to reports, Tina settled her estate in the years prior to her death after battling intestinal cancer and high blood pressure, which accelerated kidney decline and led her husband, Erwin Bach, to donate one of his kidneys to her in 2017.
Even though her will has not been made public, it is commonly thought that she will give her husband of ten years the majority of her riches, if not the whole sum. The couple dated for 27 years before being married in 2013 in Switzerland during a civil ceremony.
As her two biological children, Craig and Ronnie, have already passed away, many believe that Tina will divide her money between her husband and her two surviving children, Ike Turner Jr. and Michael Turner, whom she adopted as newborns during her marriage to Ike Turner.
Ike Jr., though, said in 2018 that he hadn’t spoken to his mother in almost 20 years. He added that although she was far away from Michael, she did “send him money” since he required money to pay for his medical expenses.
“Tina raised me beginning at the age of two. She’s the only mother I’ve ever known, Ike Jr. told The Mail on Sunday. But I haven’t spoken to my mother in a while—probably since around 2000. She and my brothers have probably not spoken to each other in a very long time. My mother, who recently got married and is currently traveling in Europe, is having fun. She doesn’t want to have anything to do with the past.
“Michael is in a rehabilitation center in Southern California and needs medical assistance,” Ike Jr. continued. I’ve seen him quite a few times. He is doing great. Michael was asked if Tina ever visited him, to which he replied, “No. He receives only cash from her.
After a protracted illness, Tina, the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll, passed away in Switzerland, according to a message on social media from her representative.
In it, it was written, “It is with great sadness that we announce Tina Turner’s passing.” “She inspired the stars of tomorrow and won over millions of fans around the world with her songs and her energy. Today, we said goodbye to a dear friend who will be most remembered for her musical talent. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family. Tina, you will be terribly missed.
