The Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, one of the most iconic voices of pop-rock music from the '80s, has died at the age of 75 in a hospital in Portugal, where she was undergoing treatment for an undisclosed condition.
The announcement was made by the artist's family, who stated that her health had worsened after an emergency surgery in May, when she was placed in an induced coma. Bonnie Tyler, born Gaynor Hopkins, began her music career in the late '70s, achieving international success with the song 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' in 1983. This was composed by Jim Steinman and became a global hit, earning her a Grammy nomination.
Other successes include 'Holding Out for a Hero' and 'It's a Heartache'. In 2013, she represented the United Kingdom at Eurovision, and in 2023 she released a reinterpretation of her hit alongside David Guetta. Bonnie Tyler leaves behind a career of nearly five decades and her husband, Robert Sullivan, with whom she was married for over 50 years.
