Tina Turner's "Love at First Sight" Moment | Oprah's Next Chapter | Oprah Winfrey Network

I want to talk about when you first saw urban and what that meant you know over what I think I really needed love I just needed to love a person the feeling of love in a person is very important to have yeah so I walked through the airport and as I got to the door I was walking out this really handsome young man stepped out from behind a column I think he was just coming and he had his arms out he said hello so what first got me I stepped back two steps because I didn't know who he was and also he was he was another kind of handsome he was an unusual looking man great eyes so I got in the car with Ervin and my heart was Boop up already my hands were wet and I thought oh my god this is love at first sight it was love it for a second we're gonna bring him in let's do that mr. boom put on your smiling wedding presents so be the groom so I saw you as we were talking about the old days and I I saw you flinching yeah I saw you drop your head is it hard for you to hear well yes yeah I didn't read the book mm-hmm you didn't read the pot no it's hard to hear and read the past of a person you love when this comes up so I always think that Tina one day will erase this we set this you want it to be done yeah I think that our relationship is now almost 30 years old yeah and I think that our relationship is almost longer in Tina's present then the previous relationship so I think it's a time to close the book and close the chapter nothing after the interview with you she will I think so I think so cuz everything is said yeah yeah well you know what is interesting that you'd asked her to marry she shared with us that you'd asked to marry when she turned 15 twice yes but you didn't really want to get married then I think I've heard you say that that I was trying to show tina my commitment oh good you know I think when a woman turns 50 she should have a commitment from her partner yeah and that's why I proposed and and asked the question wrong what'd you say well I said will you marry really marry with me and of course it was a joke and not in my view to me it was like okay okay that was a mistake I wasn't I wasn't so into the proper grammar at the time no it was cute that dolly and anyway so I was committed I was committed and and you wanted her to know it and I wanted to show this and so I went down on my knees I never did that before my life I was never married before yeah and I have my ring ready and I had this ready and I had everything ready and it could have happened that you know would have said yes I didn't know so she sort of said nothing and then strung me along for 12 I mean that is so that was okay with me I I could read between the lines yeah because did you feel that once he asked you that that he was committed to you did you feel no no no Oprah no no even though he asked me I didn't think it was real I didn't believe him but you didn't want to say I didn't want to say no because I want to continue the relationship [Music] you
