Tina Turner’s fortune: who are her heirs and how will the more than 250 million dollars left by the singer be distributed

Tina Turner’s life off the stage, where everything was energy, light, glitter and color, was diametrically different. She dealt with the storm of her first marriage – which never overshadowed her – and the pain caused by the death of her two biological children.

The American, who is considered the “Queen of Rock” died on Wednesday, May 24, 2023 in the afternoon in Switzerland, embraced by the peace and love given to her by her second husband, the German Erwin Bach.

His death, mourned by his thousands of followers, colleagues, the presidents of the United States and Switzerland, Joe Biden and Alain Berset; and even NASA itself, unleashes an interest in knowing the details of his legacy, forged through more than 60 years dedicated to the music industry.

How much is Tina Turner’s wealth?

His assets would be valued at $250 million, reports Vanitatis El Confidencial, a media outlet that adds that “his wealth recently increased when he sold his entire music catalog to BMG for $50 million.”

In Switzerland, the country where she moved with her partner, the singer reported at the beginning of last year “that she paid 76 million dollars for a large estate in Zurich.”

Journalists learned that tennis player Roger Federer showed interest in the luxury property, says Vanitatis.

Who are Tina Turner’s heirs?

Craig, the oldest son of the rock star, died in 2018. He was 59 years old and it was a suicide.

The aforementioned Spanish publication states that “his other biological son, Ronnie, also died in December 2022 from colon cancer.”

“Tina is survived by her adopted sons: Ike Junior and Michael Turner,” adds Vanitatis.

The relationship with the other was not going through a good time. There was talk in 2021 about the distance between the two and that Michael was also having health issues.

As a mother, she was consumed with grief over the loss of her older children. Craig was born out of his relationship with saxophonist Raymond Hill. While Ronnie’s father was Ike Turner.

He adopted the children Ike had with Lorraine Taylor and none of them made him a grandmother, reports El Mundo.

Ronnie, you left the world too soon. I close my eyes with pain and think of you, my beloved son.

The “Queen of Rock’n’Roll”, winner of 8 Grammys, reminds AFP, “lived for almost 30 years in the Algonquin Castle in Kusnacht, on the exclusive Goldkueste (Gold Coast) of Lake Zurich”.

According to Swiss legislation, El Mundo points out, “after the music diva’s death, her husband has the right to 50% of the inheritance, and the descendants, two adopted children who are considered legal equals, would have the rest of the inheritance distributed evenly”.
