My heart ached when I heard this news too. ๐ข We have received the unfortunate news that Ike Turner Jr., the legendary singer Tina Turner's third son, has passed away at the age of 67. We wish to share Tina Turner's sorrow, having lost family for the third time in seven years.
Hello everyone! Today, I have some truly heartbreaking news to share. ๐ This is the news that a tragic event has once again befallen the family of the Queen of Rock and Roll forever, Tina Turner.
The Sudden Passing of Her Third Son
The one who has left us this time is none other than Tina Turner's third son, Ike Turner Jr. Sadly, he passed away at the age of 67. In 2023, prior to Tina Turner's final moments before she left us, her son Ike Turner Jr. had been arrested and charged with drug possession.
This unfortunate news was conveyed through Tina Turner's niece, Jacqueline Bullock. She revealed that Ike Jr. passed away at a hospital in Los Angeles at the age of 67 after a long period of illness. The illnesses he suffered included kidney problems and colon cancer, which was a battle that was by no means short.
A Tragic End Amidst Prolonged Health Deterioration
Notably, it is reported that Ike Jr.'s health rapidly deteriorated just before his death, experiencing a stroke in early September. Ultimately, after battling various illnesses for a long time, he passed away tragically due to kidney failure and heart problems. ๐ฅ
Tina Turner adopted Ike Turner Jr. in her childhood and had him as her son. With only one remaining child, it is difficult to fathom the depth of her sorrow.
