Following the death of singer Tina Turner, will her daughter-in-law Afida inherit her fortune?
Singer Tina Turner died at the age of 83 on Wednesday May 24, leaving behind a large fortune. The latter would amount to between 300 and 400 million euros, according to information from the Parisian. A colossal sum which today poses the painful question of inheritance.
The American star had four children. Two “naturals”: Craig Turner, born in 1958 from his affair with saxophonist Raymond Hill. And Ronnie, whom she had in 1960, with her husband Ike Turneren. The first committed suicide in 2018. Ronnie died of colon cancer in 2022, after seventeen years of living together with Afida Turner.
After her marriage to Ike Turner, Tina Turner also officially adopted Ike Jr and Michael, the two sons her husband had from a previous relationship. Still alive, they had however been very distant with their adoptive mother for years.

In 2022, during an interview with Jordan De Luxe, Afida Turner claimed that her husband Ronnie was “the first heir”. She then slightly acquiesced to the question of whether she had become the main heiress after the latter’s death, while specifying that she was “not here to take someone else’s dough”.
The sulfurous artist also paid tribute to Tina Turner a few hours ago. “I was just talking about you five minutes before arriving in Nice (…) You loved the south of France so much,” she wrote on Instagram. “Rest in peace mother-in-law”.
