During Thursday’s episode of MSNBC’s The Beat with Ari Melber, Cher reminisced about visiting her longtime friend Tina Turner at her home in Switzerland. Cher revealed that Turner was in a very good mood before her death at the age of 83. The Believe crooner said she wanted to keep her friendship with Turner strong. Cher said, “I started visiting him because I thought, ‘I need to invest this time in our friendship, so he knows we haven’t forgotten him. So we all take it in turns to spend time with him. He went and she became happy.
Cher revealed that Tina was initially a little reluctant about the visits and insisted that she should not spend much time around other people due to her declining health. But then they spent time laughing and gossiping with each other. Cher said that Tina was having a good time, even though she was really sick and didn’t want other people to know. Even with a dialysis machine, the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll remained strong and fought the disease for a very long time.
The 77-year-old singer said, “But I know, in the end, she told me once, she said, ‘I’m really ready. I just don’t want to put up with it. She just didn’t want to do it anymore.
Cher also revealed a parting gift given to her by her longtime friend Tina Turner. He mentioned receiving the shoes as a parting gift from the late singer.
