We report the awful news of Tina Turner’s son, Ike Turner Jr., with heavy hearts just weeks after her heartbreaking passing.

Without a doubt, the late Tina Turner was the greatest diva to ever grace the planet. Her strong vocals elevated her to the pinnacle she occupied up until her passing and even after.

Turner lived in Switzerland for the final years of her life with her husband Erwin Bach, who gave her a kidney.

Ike Turner, a musician who was her first husband, was a violent man. Turner, however, didn’t talk about the abuse she experienced until much later in life. Ike overdosed on cocaine and died in 2007 at the age of 76.

They had a lot of success together and were even admitted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1991. On their behalf, Phil Spector accepted the honor. However, their personal lives told a different tale.

Unfortunately, Ike Turner Jr., one of Turner’s kids, followed in his father’s drug-using ways. He had been involved in several situations over the years, including breaching the law and getting into difficulty with the law, much like his father did.

Turner Jr. was detained for drug possession and tampering with evidence just 18 days before his mother Tina Turner passed away on May 24, 2023, it has now been revealed.

According to police records, Turner Jr. was stopped at 12:09 a.m. while driving a 2013 Ford Fusion for an equipment failure, which is a term used when a car’s headlight or taillight is not working.

He attempted to consume the 1.7 grams of crack cocaine and less than a gram of methamphetamine he had on him at the time of his arrest in order to conceal them from being found.

The Alvin Police Department stated that Turner Jr. “tried to eat the drugs before the officers could seize them from him.”

Jessica Salinas-Esquivel, a passenger in the vehicle, is also accused of possessing drugs.

According to reports, Turner Jr. has been detained at the Brazoria County Jail for the past month without posting the $70,000 bail that has been set.

According to rumors, Tina Turner’s connection with her kids was strained, especially after she moved to Switzerland from the United States.
