Iman Opens Up About Life After David Bowie: Grief, Love, And Moving Forward

It’s been two years since the world lost the legendary music icon David Bowie, and his wife, Iman, is sharing her journey through grief. Even though she appears to be the picture of strength and resilience, Iman recently revealed that she’s still grappling with her emotions. In a heartfelt interview with Net-a-Porter, she opened up about her husband’s passing and made it clear that she has no plans to remarry.

“I will never remarry,” the 63-year-old said candidly to Net-a-Porter. “I was talking about my husband the other day, and someone corrected me, saying, ‘You mean your late husband.’ I told them, no, he will always be my husband. David is and will forever remain my husband.”
