What’s Love Got To Do With It, based on her autobiography I, Tina, dramatized the mother-of-two’s infamously tumultuous relationship with Ike Turner. Angela Bassett received an Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Tina in the biopic.

Turner, dubbed the “Queen of Rock and Roll,” married her longtime German love, music executive Erwin Bach, in a civil wedding in Switzerland in 2013 and has been residing there with him since 1994.The singer, who was previously wed to musician Ike from 1962 until 1978, was now married for a second time.

The singer detailed a horrifying account of violence in her 1986 autobiography, including how she smashed her nose while still married to Ike. Ike passed away in December 2007, and Tina is aware of it, her spokesman was cited as saying at the time. In the past 35 years, she hasn’t spoken to him at all. No more remarks will be made.

REST IN PEACE TINA AND THANK YOU FOR SO MANY BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WE SHARED WITH YOUR WONDERFUL SONGS.
