“I was living a life of death. I didn’t exist,” Tina Turner said of the violence and abuse she suffered in her first marriage. “But I survived it. And when I walked out, I walked. And I didn’t look back.”
Turner’s bravery and willingness to speak up about the domestic abuse she experienced have prompted a deluge of praise and thanks since her death on Wednesday, as campaigners and fellow survivors hailed her as an inspiration.
