William admitted to having a special spot for Tina’s 1989 hit, The Best, in a 2021 interview for the Apple audio project, Time To Walk.

According to him, it was a “real family moment” when his mother would play the song as she drove Harry and him back to boarding school to calm their anxiety.

“When I was younger, Harry and I went to boarding school,” he said. “And my mum used to play a variety of tunes to help me relax before returning to school.”

“And Tina Turner’s “The Best” is a song that I particularly recall, has stayed with me throughout the years, and still secretly love it since it made me feel comfortable while I was singing along in the backseat.”

“When they dropped you off, you’d be singing and listening to the music all the way out to the school gates.”

“The song transports me back to those car drives and a lot of memories of my mum when I listen to it now.”

“The singer passed away earlier this week,” her spokesman said she passed away ‘peacefully’ at home.

Long-term health issues for the artist included high blood pressure and a kidney transplant in 2017.

“With her, the world loses a music legend and a role model,” her spokesman added.

“Tina Turner delighted millions of fans with her music and her boundless vitality and inspired many artists of subsequent generations.”
