Tina Turner's oldest son Craig Raymond Turner has committed suicide.....
Craig was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, aged 59, at his home in Studio City, California on Tuesday, TMZ reports.
Craig
was pronounced dead at the scene at 12.38pm and Los Angeles County
coroner's office assistant chief Ed Winter confirmed his death was being
reported as suicide, although the official autopsy is pending.
His
famous mother Tina, 78, who was seen attending Haute Couture Paris
Fashion Week just a few short hours before her son was found dead, was
just 18 when she gave birth to Craig, whose father was a saxophonist
named Raymond Hill.
Tina later married Ike Turner, who adopted her son and gave him his name.
Craig,
who studied at Santa Monica College, was in real estate at Rodeo
Realty, in the San Fernando Valley. He does not appear to have any
children or be married at his time of death.
Tina has not yet made an official statement about Craig's death.
