Tina Turner's death heavily impacted the music industry as many artists paid tribute to the late Queen of Rock 'n Roll, saying she inspired them throughout their careers.
More recently, fans have been wondering how the singer lived the final moments of her life and it seemed like her last few months were normal as she spent it doing ordinary things in Switzerland.
According to an insider who spoke with Daily Mail UK, the "Proud Mary" songstress would casually walked around the streets of Küsnacht to buy Italian designer clothes as well as gourmet food.
Even though the musician had lived in the country since 1995, she would still admire the view of the snow-covered mountains whenever she hung out at a local park.
"She liked to go to the park and sit by the water. It is a very peaceful place," one described.
In addition, the Rock 'n Roll pioneer would do errands independently despite having a staff to help her and a personal butler. She reportedly traveled around town using her Porsche Cayenne.
Tina Turner Remembered by Swiss Neighbors as a Nice Person
Amid her death, the 83-year-old artist was remembered by some of her neighbors who lived near her Chateau Algonquin.
"She was a very polite lady," one said.
A butcher by the name of Benny Lang said the singer would shop around the area but opted to be alone with her husband Erwin without any assistance from their butler.
The couple's go-to spot for grocery goods is a place called Moreira Gourmet House where they would shop for white truffles and smoked salmon.
In addition, the energetic performer also took yoga classes at a park near her estate as it was reachable by walking.
Why Did Tina Turner Move to Switzerland?
According to USA Today, Tina Turner was born in the United States but later opted to live in Switzerland decades before her death.
In 2013, she filed legal papers to relinquish her US citizenship, but at the time, she had already lived in the country for over two decades.
The outlet suggested that her relationship with her husband Erwin Bach might be one of the reasons why she decided to stay in the country.
"I have left America, because my success was in another country and my boyfriend was in another country," she previously explained.
Tina Turner, popularly known as the Queen of Rock 'n Roll, died of natural causes last week at the age of 83.
