Speaking to BBC News, Tina Turner said he had seemed fulfilled in both his professional and personal life after finding a new girlfriend. "I still don't know what took him to the edge," Turner said, "because at that stage he had said to me that he had never met a woman that he felt that way about."

He had decorated his apartment, that I bought him years ago. He had gotten a new job with a prominent real estate company in California, [which] he was very happy with. "I have no idea what pulled him down, except something that followed him with loneliness. I think it was something with being alone. "But when I think that, why didn't he call the new girlfriend that gave him the lift? She added: "He was an introverted person, he was very shy, so I didn't know either, except now when I listen back to our last conversations, I notice a change. "The last few times we talked, the conversations were different, and I didn't know that until after the suicide." ◾How does Tina Turner rate her own musical? ◾Why Tina Turner came out of retirement Turner also discussed how her life had changed since her marriage to her long-term partner Erwin Bach in 2013.
