It’s a story of love that transcends time and loss. Nearly three years after the legendary singer David Bowie passed away from liver cancer at the age of 69 on January 10, 2016, his widow, the stunning model Iman, is taking a moment to honor her late husband. On what would have been Bowie's 72nd birthday, Iman took to Instagram on January 7—just a day before his birthday—to remind the world that the memory of her beloved husband remains alive in her heart.
Iman, now 63, posted a heartfelt tribute to her husband, capturing a tender moment where Bowie plants a kiss on her cheek. The caption was simple but powerful: “#BowieForever.” Fans were quick to respond, with one commenting, “Happy Birthday to your soulmate!!!” Another fan chimed in, saying, “Two iconic souls with a LOVE that will burn forevermore.” It’s clear that the love between Iman and Bowie was more than just a relationship—it was a bond that has touched countless lives.

On Bowie's actual birthday, Iman didn’t stop there. She shared one of her daily quotes on social media, but this time, it was a deeply personal tribute to her late husband. “My memory loves you. It asks about you all the time,” she wrote. Her followers were touched by the sentiment, with one responding, “He is with you always, Iman. He lives on. Forever and ever. Stay strong. We love you!”
For Iman, the pain of losing Bowie is still raw, but her love for him remains unwavering. In a candid interview with PorterEdit, she revealed that she has no plans to remarry because her heart will always belong to Bowie. “I mentioned my husband the other day with someone, and they said to me, ‘You mean your late husband?’ I said, ‘No, he is always going to be my husband,’” she recalled. Her words carry a profound sense of devotion, reminding us that true love doesn’t fade with time.
Despite her enduring love, Iman admits to feeling "very lonely" at times. “But do I want a relationship?” she asks herself. “I can’t say never, but no, not now.” Her honesty is both vulnerable and inspiring, showing that even in the face of immense grief, she continues to live life with grace and authenticity.
Iman’s journey through grief has been both public and deeply personal. She spoke candidly about the challenges of moving forward after losing Bowie. “People take pictures of me in the street, and say, ‘I am so sorry for your loss.’ I’m like, ‘Don’t touch me,’” she explained. “You just took pictures of me, how can you be sorry? I get the fans’ grief, but it’s not the same. They have lost someone they look up to; we have lost a husband and a father. And sometimes, I don’t want people to know how sad I am.”
