Tina Turner’s legacy - she didn’t give up

As the world pays tribute to the ‘Queen of Rock-and-Roll’, Tina Turner, who died on the 24 May, aged 83, Rebecca Hunter-Kelm remembers the life of the woman who didn’t give up

Many of us grew up dancing around our kitchens with our mums, sisters, friends and aunties to the irresistibly moving melodies of Rock-n-Roll Queen, Tina Turner.

She sang in her famous deep raspy voice, ‘What’s love got to do with it?’ and ‘Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken.’ She was searching for a love that perhaps she once knew as a girl, growing up in the church.
