Tina Turner’s daughter-in-law Afida will use sperm gifted by late husband to become a mother.
Ronnie, Tina Turner’s late son, gifted his wife sperm as a birthday gift before he died. Afida now says she is going to have his child with the sperm he froze.
Devastated by the death of Ronnie and Turner, she said the only thing keeping her holding on is the possibility of motherhood.
“I’m going to have Ronnie’s baby!” she said in an interview with People. “If I can. I’m 46. But we’ll see,” she added.
Ronnie died of colon cancer at the age of 62 in December 2022. His mother Tina Turner died a few months later at the age of 83 in May 2023.
“It was very sad that Ronnie passed, and then his mom passed six months after. It is very difficult for me because people only see the music or the pictures, but I go back home and scream the names of my loved ones. [That pain] will never go away,” she told People.
“I’m still very depressed and thinking about very bad, dark, bad stuff. You don’t want to go through this in life. You have to talk to God, otherwise you go nuts and kill yourself. I’m suffering and my heart is destroyed. I’m trying not to lose my mind,” the French singer painfully admitted.
