Tina Turner, known as the "queen of rock 'n' roll," released many chart-topping hits throughout her long career as an artist. Turner, born Anna Mae Bullock, started her career when she met Ike Turner while he was performing with his band Kings of Rhythm.

Tina became part of the act, and the two became well-known as a musical duo.

Some of the pair's biggest hits that are still popular today include "A Fool in Love," "It's Gonna Work Out Fine" and "Proud Mary."

Turner and Ike tied the knot in 1962. Their relationship came to an end in 1976, after Tina filed for divorce. Later, Turner alleged she was abused in the relationship.
