\tRonnie is the second son that Tina Turner has lost. Her oldest son Craig, whom she had at age 18 with saxophonist Raymond Hill, died by suicide in 2018. Ronnie’s father Ike Turner died in 2007.<\/p>\n

Love you for this 17 years this is very very very bad and I am very mad. This is a tragedy u with your brother Craig and your father Ike Turner and Aline rest in paradise\u2026 So unfair.\u201d<\/p>\n
