Tina Turner's widower Erwin Bach to inherit half of singer’s $250 million fortune after her death

KUSNACHT, SWITZERLAND: Tina Turner has reportedly left behind a fortune worth £200 million ($250 million) after her death on May 24. She was in Switzerland when she lost her life to a long illness at 83. Now, reports have said that her second husband, Erwin Bach, will get approximately half of her wealth.

The “Queen of Rock 'n' Roll” was married to Bach since 2013 after ending her abusive marriage to Ike Turner years ago. Tina’s daughter-in-law Afida Turner, who is the widow of her late son, Ronnie Turner, told the Sunday Mirror, “As she married in Switzerland, I think around 47% will go to the spouse and the rest to the children.”

‘She never adopted Ike Jr’

The French musician, however, expressed her doubt over the inheritance of the rest of the money as both of Tina’s sons are dead and she did not give birth to Ike Turner Jr. Craig lost his life to suicide in 2018 while Ronnie died in December last year from metastatic colon cancer.

Afida continued, “But Tina’s two children are Craig and Ronnie – she never adopted Ike Jr. It’s just because she was with Ike that they were in the family, so the only ‘blood’ descendants are Craig and Ronnie. Today I’m the only one with the name… there are no other Turners,” before adding, “I’m not here for that. I’m here to respect my mother-in-law. I’ve always earned my own money – no one has ever given me anything in the Turner family… that’s the Turner way, OK?”

‘I haven't talked to my mother since God knows when’

Earlier, Ike Jr reportedly disclosed that he was not in touch with his stepmother for many years. He said as per Hello!, “Tina raised me from the age of two. She's the only mother I've ever known. But I haven't talked to my mother since God knows when – probably around 2000. I don't think any of my brothers have talked to her in a long time either. My mother is living her life – she has a new husband and she's in Europe. She doesn't want to have anything to do with the past.”

He also mentioned his brother Michael and added, “Michael is in a convalescent home in Southern California and needs medical support. I've been to see him quite a few times. He's doing great.”

‘As a courageous survivor of domestic violence, she gave hope’

Meanwhile, Tina’s death has attracted a lot of tributes online. Her representatives said in a statement, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tina Turner. With her music and her boundless passion for life, she enchanted millions of fans around the world and inspired the stars of tomorrow. Today we say goodbye to a dear friend who leaves us all her greatest work: her music. All our heartfelt compassion goes out to her family. Tina, we will miss you dearly.”

A fan tweeted, “Tina Turner was a great legendary singer. As a courageous survivor of domestic violence, she gave hope. The joy she gave to many with her songs and 🎶 music. Simply the best! x.” The second one said, “Tina Tuner, leaves thousands of fans, admirers, in love with her songs, shows that will be remembered with great nostalgia & will never be forgotten, as well as her entire life trajectory!

The third one shared, “Numerous thanks to Ms. Anna Mae Bullock especially for her music, voice, dance, strength, fortitude, and gracefulness rolled into one!!! Sending prayers and condolences to the family of the incomparable, beautiful, and multi-talented Tina Turner.
