Tina Turner's spouse moves on to a new romantic engagement.
Erwin Bach, Tina Turner's Long-Time Partner, Announces New Romance
Erwin Bach, the long-time partner of the late Tina Turner, has found love again with an American woman named Christina L. This news was confirmed after the couple was publicly seen together for the first time at a national holiday party held at Bach's estate in Stäfa, Switzerland, on August 1, 2025 [1][2].
Bach and Christina L. have been living in Switzerland for quite some time, with Christina residing near Gstaad in the Bern region. Their relationship blossomed a year after Tina Turner's passing, described as a chance encounter that felt like fate [2].
Christina L. is not a public figure, and the couple prefers to keep their relationship private. They share a similar life experience, as both have lost their respective spouses in 2023. Despite their differing musical tastes—Christina enjoys opera and ballet while Bach prefers rock and pop—they view this as an enriching diversity rather than a contradiction [1][2].
Bach now resides in the estate previously shared with Tina Turner, where he is rediscovering happiness and expressing gratitude for his new love and life [1][2]. This news comes after Bach donated his kidney to Tina Turner in 2017 when she was fighting kidney failure, a testament to their deep bond.
The couple was first seen together at a private party at Bach's villa on Lake Zurich. It was reported that Bach remained in the background during his almost 40-year relationship with Tina Turner. However, it seems that he has found a new source of joy and contentment in his life [1][2].
This news was reported by the Swiss newspaper "Blick" [3]. No further details about Christina L.'s background or the nature of her late husband's profession have been disclosed.
