Tina Turner is a singer, dancer, actress and author whose real name is Anna Mae Bullock.
As of January 2018 - her net worth is estimated between $230 and 265 million. Since her accounts are (obviously) private - there's no way to get a more accurate figure.
As a whole family Ike and Tina have four sons, Ike Jr, Michael, Ronnie and Craig.
Ike Jr. and Michael were from Ike's previous marriage so, the two aren't Tina's kids. She adopted them after Tina and Ike got married.
Tina bared Ike's son Ronnie... Ronnie is the only kid Ike and Tina had together. But Tina would've gotten 2 kids with Ike if she didn't get an abortion. When she discovered that she was pregnant with Ike's kid in 1968, she was disgusted too because her best friend (an Ikette at that time) Ann Thomas was pregnant with Ike's kid too.
Tina had a relationship with one of Ike's saxophone players Raymond Hill, (this was before Ike and Tina got married or were together) She gave birth to Craig, Raymond and Tina's son. But Raymond left the band AND Tina.

In 1985, they performed memorable duets ("State of Shock" and "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll") at the Live Aid concert in Philadelphia.
Tina Turner had four children. Her first child was with Raymond Hill, a saxonphonist in Ike Turners band. His name is Craig Turner (Ike Turner later adopted him). Her second child was Ronnie Turner (Ike Turner is his biological father). After their marriage in 1962, Tina adopted Ike's two other boys from a previous marriage. They refer to Tina as their mother.
Turner has lived in Europe since the mid-1980s, after she moved to London in 1986 and then Cologne, Germany, later that decade; she moved to Switzerland in 1994.

The story goes that in the early Ike & Tina days Tina Turner went to have her hair bleached and as the hair dresser took the bleaching cap off, Tina's hair came with it.
So she started to wear wigs and liked having instantly long hair and could have whatever style she wanted, so she continued to wear wigs/weaves even after her hair grew back. She still wears wigs to this day.
Tina is not bald as some people say. She has afro hair like any other black woman. There are a few photos on the web that show Tina without her wig, looking radiant and naturally beautiful.
her hair is not a wig, in an interview she confirmed that in the 70's she wore wigs and then she stopped wearing wigs in the 80's because it had grown back to it s full length and ever since then its been growing and she gets it styled as desired

Some people will never have a "perfect" body Genetics is one factor which we have not control over. Other than that, it is a simple matter of aerobic exercise to burn fat, and weight training to increase muscle mass, combined with a high protein diet.

Tina has only been married once, to Ike Turner, divorcing him in 1978.
Tina has two half-sisters. Ones name is Mary Ann Buck-White, who was taken away when Tina was born. No one has seen her since. Mary has a couple daughters it was told. Alline is her full blooded sister. Her other half sister was killed in a car wreck. Alline and her half-sister who was killed are both dead. I believe Mary is still living. The last I heard was in 2005.
Sadly, her daughter found her unresponsive on the afternoon of December 26, 2010. On December 30, 2010, the Los Angeles County coroner performed an autopsy and found no signs of trauma or discernible cause of death, concluding she'd died of natural causes. She'd had a grand mal epileptic seizure just one month prior to her death.
According to her Ike, her husband forced her to have sex with him against her will.. but at the time it wasn't really considered rape when done within a marriage.
