Tina Turner's son Ronnie Renelle has been found dead at his home in Los Angeles.
On Friday morning, TMZ reported that the 62-year-old had been found unresponsive by neighbors.
Paramedics rushed to his San Fernando Valley address where bystanders were attempting CPR.
However, efforts to revive him were unsuccessful.
A cause of death has not been announced, although Ronnie had previously battled cancer. His mother has yet to comment on his death.
The Simply The Best singer welcomed her youngest son in 1960, with former partner Ike Turner, two years after welcoming first child Craig with Raymond Hill.
She also adopted Ike’s two sons from a previous marriage, Ike Jr and Michael.
The couple split in 1976 after Tina accused Ike of hitting her, with Ike dying of a drug overdose in 2007. [caption id="attachment_370209" align="alignnone" width="1633"]
