LOS ANGELES, April 21 — Imam has revealed the secrets behind her 24-year marriage to legendary rock star David Bowie in an interview that was recorded before his death.
Iman who married Bowie in 1992 just two years after they met, revealed that “timing” was everything in a taped interview for Oprah: Where Are They Now?.
“You have to be at the right time in your life that you’re ready for an everlasting relationship, that it becomes first and a priority in your life.”
Imam also revealed that they did not allow their fame to impact on their life together.
“We both understand the difference between the person and the persona. When we are home we are just Iman and David. We’re not anybody else.
“If your career is important to you, don’t get married and have children, because something will give. I know we as women, we want to be able to have it all, but we can’t have it all at the same time. So make your priority of what you want at that time.”
Bowie died aged 69 in January after a private 18-month battle with cancer.
