It was probably a bit of a shock.
There is/was no love between them, quite the oppisite, but we all react differently to shock.
Personally, in my own very humble opinion, this will be a gift for her, kerchiiinnngggg!!!

I suppose you could say it was bad on Davids part too to buy his sons mother out of his life

..that's what I mean, it would be unfair to not realise that they both were part of it and I'm not sure that it would have even been known..(or so quickly..)..if it weren't for Angie being in the house atm..(there has never been a secret about any of their marriage, Angie has discussed most of it openly several times over the years..)...the most weird of timing for the whole thing to have happened though...

..also, you know...I can see also her bitterness..it had to have been so difficult for her..she was a huge part of what he became as Ziggy Stardust, his career in help style and 'invent' him as well as being his wife, so would have felt fairly lost and rejected from everything in her life...in 1980, I doubt that ex wives got the same (from celebrities..) that they would now maybe...just as always, it's the children isn't it that are damaged so much...

I don't believe the timing to be weird.

People die; Bowie was a recluse since his angioplasty of 2004; he had 6 heart attacks on top of terminal liver cancer.

I'm never shocked or surprised when celebrities die.

That's for sure, must be extra tough for Davids wife and family and of course his and Angies son

..I meant the timing of Angie being in the BB house when he died and such 'high profile' herself atm, when most people in the UK have probably not even thought about her for so long...

Coincidence. Now if Angie died in the house, that would be weird. Who would tell Tiffany?

I know exactly how grief works having lost people very dear to me thanks
