On December 9, 2022, Ronnie Turner died at the age of 62. As revealed by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office, singer Tina Turner’s youngest son has died of complications from metastatic colon carcinoma. Following his disappearance, his wife Afida Turner paid him a moving tribute. “I tried my best until the end, but this time I couldn’t save you. I’ve loved you for… 17 years, it’s very very very bad and I’m very angry. It’s a tragedy you are with your brother Craig and your father Ike Turner and Aline is resting in heaven… So unfair“, she posted on Instagram.
Months passed, allowing Afida Turner to grieve as the weeks passed. Recently, the public was able to find her at the Théâtre Trévise in Paris for Abracafida!, the show she put on with Baptiste Souriau. These dates in the French capital were a real breath of fresh air for the artist. Unfortunately, Afida Turner is facing a new personal ordeal, as she told her fans on Instagram. “Back to the terrible reality: nightmare and extreme sadness. I have to move all of Ronnie’s staff and memorabilia from the house. Alone in front of my blood and my tears. I’m glad I celebrated your 62nd birthday in Malibu. He died a month later“, she writes.
Afida Turner takes the opportunity to talk about the happiness she has been able to experience in recent weeks in France, in order to have to find the “Hollywood nightmare”. “Away from the fans, from the television, from the fans screaming your name, the latex, the stage, the platinum blonde hair, the big p*** dresses, the fishnet stockings, the champagne, the good wine, the fancy restaurants, audience records, the theater of Treviso… BACK TO THE nightmare in Hollywood“, she concluded.
