Although Tina had stated that she and Ike weren’t officially married, they still had a common-law marriage and had to go through a formal divorce, following which Tina received full custody of Ronnie, and $1000 a month in child support, along with $4000 a month in alimony. Tina cut all ties with Ike, and hadn’t had any contact with him until his passing in December 2007, while Ronnie kept in touch with his father, and had even worked with him on several occasions.

Ronnie matriculated from the local Seaside High School in 1978, and then enrolled at Hartnell College, from which he graduated in 1982 with a degree in music.

Career as a musician and other ventures

Much like his parents, Ronnie is a very talented musician, although he hasn’t reached their level of fame. He learned how to play various musical instrument at an early age, including the guitar and drums.

During his time in college, Ronnie started playing bass guitar in a band called Manufactured Funk, along with songwriter and musician Patrick Molten. He also occasionally played the bass guitar in his mother’s band, and later in his father’s group.

Ronnie made his acting debut in 1993, by playing the supporting role of a revue in the biographical drama about his mother entitled “What’s Love Got to Do with It”, written by Kate Lanier and directed by Brian Gibson, based on Tina’s autobiographical book “I, Tina”.
