Everyone is talking about her and David but...she kept a pillow her friend gave her 20+ years ago. That's so sweet. Some friends are worth more than rubies.
Late 80s early 90s is easily 30 years +- because i was born in 1985 and I'm already what, 37yo?
What a long loyal friendship
What a loving couple, with a dear daughter. The house is comforting to her now, I'm glad. The meaningful gifts and the shared love of the book were touching moments.
I don't know if I'm sad for David watching this or how beautiful she tells this story of him and knowing he's no longer here. A true love that's so rare these days. What beautiful artistry she's showing us with the memories of David in her life. ❤
@@MHaffiezMNazri oh gosh we are 37!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The way she talks about him, like he is still physically present is everything. This is beautiful.
What a heart warming story about her true love ❤️
He is present with her still
@@juliaphillips9436 I believe that. Love is transcendent. Love is an energy that surpasses death of the physical body. It remains in a different form no less real as before someone passes. At times, it permeates even more vividly afterwards.
Didn't David Bowie assault an underaged girl?
@@bnwo really? Like he is dead now. Rip
Not gonna lie she sounded like she was gonna cry there for a second and she kept it together. Amazing how love never dies.
What a brilliant couple they made
Her grief is palpable... you can see how much love there was/is still there.
I-CON!
I couldn't hold the tear back myself. What a strong soul.
I felt the same way
This is so beautiful. It's incredible to think she is 66 years old. You can hear her voice about to crack when she talks about him. I remember her saying that she won't remarry, and that her life with David was enough for her. Loyal even in death. Loved this!
😳 What? No way. I thought she was in her early fifties
@@NokthulaMadondo Black don't crack....
My mother was like that when we lost dad. She was 48 and he was 51 when he passed. Mom told us that she could never experience another love like she had with our father.
Remember your husband
That's the same with Betty White, who never dated/married after her husband died in '81, 30 - er, 40 - years before she did.
I just love how she honors him. She never calls him "my late husband", she calls him "my husband". Even death didn't really part them. Wishing her all the peace in the world.
That is Beautiful!
So she never remarried? Just asking.
@@justinamusyoka4986 Νο
@@MissieK I think she's in her 60's!
@@justinamusyoka4986 yeah so? He passed 6 years ago
I love that she reminds us of what is really important … not walls or architecture … but memories that become art
Totally agree! Beautifully said ❤️
Amen
So perfectly said!
Well said.
Yes! 👏
When she said she's not crying anymore, with tears filling up her eyes. Love is wonderful, even beyond life.
It tears my heart apart knowing how much Iman loves gifts, and that the house is basically David's last gift to her.
She saved him, and now, she's carrying his memory the most tender way possible. Probably the most touching house tour I've ever watched.
Yeah, she talks about him so loving and caring and cherishing.... It still feels warm today. They must have had a great life together.
She speaks of him like he is still present. If you never knew he was dead you would think she is speaking about a husband still
Alive. I like it
I totally agree
I agree! A very special tour.
True love.
You can just tell that she is living her life but she also can't wait to see him again. This was a very sweet love letter to her husband. She's fabulous

So true
I love the way she explains those stack stones, in memory of someone and as navigation for life. Each object is beautiful and artistic and shows her deep love and sorrow for her husband.
She is so lovely. I can see why David loved her so much. The story of the book they both loved was beautiful
When A guy who can have anyone, finds female perfection, what else could he have done?
I love how much she loves him and admires him. Very sad that he’s no longer physically there with her. I just love their whole story.
You can tell by how specific the gifts where that they knew each other like the back of their hand.
I love how she is selling that jug it's all done by discreet supporting black business 👏
Love doesn't diminish, especially when yal in love
you can just feel how much she misses Dave
Real love does not exist. This is very very very rare.
“ the world is over 4 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.” Such a beautiful look into a beautiful love story.
Correction, earth is 13 billion years old
@@kimboslice921 I mean that is over 4 billion
@@kimboslice921 the universe is over 13 billion years old, the solar system and then earth are about 4.5 billion years ago
@Baby Hunn baby, these people don’t know you exist. Take it easy❤️
@Baby Hunn well, Grace Kelly, how DARE people live in a manner other than what YOU deem proper!
I know that you're talking about your ideals, but let's face it--all artists hope to become famous and live off their art. He did so. Sting did a similar thing. You can be happy for them, that they were successful enough to share their music with the world. If you're capable of being happy for others' success.
I lost my wife 6 years ago so I understand the pain of loss. I love the masks as well those are really cool. You can actually feel the love that you have for David. There'll never be anyone else like him. He was one of a kind.
I'm so sorry 🥺💜💜
I love how Iman touches her things with such love and appreciation for the item but mostly for the people who gave the item to her.
Usually celebrities show the house and their interior to show off their artistic endeavors but for her a house is about love and memory of loved ones, she shows the history of the things she values and that is interlinked with friends and family
I really enjoyed how she shared that it inadvertently became the place she ultimately healed and was able to really grieve which I’m sure in the spotlight is even more difficult to do. So sweet she shared such intimate details and memories in remembrance
@David Gordon yes man, she's useing his death to sell perfume,
No one wants to hear about the perfume, unless she throws out few bowie stories,
You'd think she'd have enof money, never ceases to amaze the depths people go for money,
Seems the more you have the lower you go for more.
@@littlebrayutd There is a story behind. She has been successful already . She mentions not on her perfume the story ! She just gave a background story to it . You are jealous
@@theancientsancients1769 yes that's called product placement,
Where they drop products for consumers in a " every day life video"
There's noting wrong with it, but when your talking bout your partners death and dropping that plug in, is distasfull,,
How's that jealous? It's jus capitalism!!!!!! Never miss a chance to make money,,
@David Gordon @little bray utd
Idiots, the both of you.
WTF do you think David Bowie was doing every time he did an interview about his albums and creative process??
She's a model, her knowledge on fashion and art and design is clear thoughout this piece and you can see it's one thing that connected her toher husband.
But yall are trying to shame her for the beautiful backstory for that fragrance?
Oh, fk off.
What a love story! You can feel it in her voice.
Love story? He just picked her up when she was destitute? It's all about money.
Love story of all the money she acquired
@@ajl2232 Iman has never been destitute lol stop hating!
@@jamesjameson4566 she had her own money - she was a professional supermodel for years - everyone knows this. jealousy is not a good look
@@deesee3622 not that kinda money sweetie
you can hear the grief still in her voice. What an amazing love they shared. She's very spiritual in that what she shares has so much meaning, this was not her showing off her mansion, this was her sharing with us what is truly important. Love her.
My favorite piece happened to be the one her daughter painted. That's so lovely.
Me too, that really got me!
Yes, that made me cry. They raised a wonderful young lady. Really impressed with Iman. A true queen with a deep, loyal heart. ❤
It brought me to tears. Such a beautiful gift.
i keep tearing up because i feel like she's holding back tears as she was talking. I adore this woman so much!
I felt the same way
I adore her, and I adore her husband since the 70s
So true. The tears filled in her eyes said everything.
Absolutely
My eyes kept filling up throughout the video. It's so sad that she lost the love of her life.
My favorite Iman quote. "People knew David Bowie the artist. I knew David Jones the man and I loved him."
Mine is, "' 'ere smoke this, it will keep you warm."
Idk why but that made me cry lol
My husband died last year and It was so wonderful to see the lovely objects that she loves. I have pictures that keep me close to Tom and give me joy . Grief is a bitter sweet thing.🌹
I just adore Iman (since I was a young girl) and the way she loves her David, I cannot put it into words. I am so honored to share the same wedding anniversary as Iman & David. May he rest. 💖
Iman is a true example of grace, poise, style and strength. Qualities, sadly,not being emulated by enough humans.
A Somali Queen.
I like this woman because she likes these objects because of what they represent in her life, not because of their monetary value or show. Her personality is very refreshing.
I agree.
These are my kind of people, regardless of their station in life.
@@lulumoon6942 DITTO‼️❗👍🏾👍🏽👍🏾
@@lilianebeeckman1939 👍
Their love is so strong, i hope to find something like that someday…
You dead stole my comment 💀
@@Siorva same!
You both will!❤️
Keep thinking happy thoughts, and don't actively seek it out (like when you lose something, just look, don't look for anything specifically and you'll find it much faster). When it happens, you'll think it's by accident, but hindsight will tell you it wasn't. Everything happens when it's supposed to 💝
same
This woman respects sentiment, and for that, I respect her even more. I wish to age this gracefully.
Whenever I want to watch a video about true love, I watch videos where Iman talks about her relationship with David Bowie ❤️
I could listen to Iman speak all day. Her voice and her energy is so calming. Her love for David is so evident, even without truly knowing her. She really seems like an authentic and sweet person
Shes in a video shes hardly going to start being bitchy and swearing on screen, but you are going to tell me she is the mosr elegant beautiful person you have ever seen, PATHETIC
@@beesmonk why the hate though
@@beesmonk aren't you a cup of sunshine :P I feel sorry for the people that have to deal with you on a daily basis lol
An ad
Didn't David Bowie assault an underaged girl?
Her voice and presence is so tranquil and calm. Like water trickling over pebbles
I would love a talking version of the book she showed us. Would be relaxing and intriguing to listen to her reading it.
Such a beautiful description
Totally agree!
She could read a phone book, and she'd gently lull me off to sleep with her smooth and silky voice.
This description is spot on!!💕
The way she talks about herself by talking about others, especially of course David Bowie, is so so touching and special. I was in tears.
The way she cherish gifts makes me appreciates the ones I’ve received much more. Her accent soothes my mind and warms my heart. How she talks about David Bowie makes me loathe even more for romantic love. And let’s not forget to mention her beauty. It’s breathtaking!
No one, absolutely no celebrity has more class than Iman. Money can't buy it, you are born with it.
Lol
Yes, she’s so classy and elegant.
there are others who are just as classy
So true!!!!!
@@MsDesiree39 can he compliment her without her having to be compared? Smh.
I’m emotional watching this, you can tell how her grief has filled the space with memories and love. A real love story
Hey...
I felt the same watching this. I was moved to tears when she talked about the stones.
Is it stupid that I ugly-cried through this whole video? I feel so petty, small and unevolved. I can't let go. I will never be a great one if I remain hung up on every little injury and absence in life. I wish I was just... serene.
Me too… I pray for a pure love like theirs.
That painting at 6:25 is so touching. Iman is so graceful.
You can see she's trying her best to hold back her tears. Even when she says she does not cry anymore. Strong loving woman she is 💓
The house is beautiful and I love how she has so many objects around that remind her of her husband, it must be hard for her some days tho

The house and the interior is so fantastic, beautiful style- the soul of David.
I love how she speaks. There’s something about her that just draws you in, she has really good energy.
She speaks with a type of drama and power.
Yes, her energy is so beautiful! Very magnetic 💜
She comes across as being very maternal, matronly even. I find it interesting that David fell for this kind of woman.
@@mimuiao interesting how?
@@te9591 I don't mean this in a negative sense. There is just something very motherly about her and I find it curious that he was so smitten with that.
I’m so glad she’s moving through the grief. How lovely to see some of the things she shared with David. The black star portrait brought a tear to my eye. Lexi has a gift.
She expresses the grief of losing your partner so well. I truly appreciate her openness in expressing this, I connect to it so much.
Wow. She is ethereal. You can tell exactly why David - someone so magnificent, a once-in-a-billion supernova - totally fell in love with her until death and beyond. She is enrapturing, the way she talks about things with such deep resonance and feeling; makes you feel alive.
This is such an incredibly beautiful, heartfelt comment. 💛💛
Awwww this is beautiful 🥰
@@sunnysails agreed ❤️
EXACTLY!
@@geraldinelafayette1838 Wow! This is really well said! Each statement!
She is so regal and just has the most immaculate taste, and her love for David is so deeply apparent. This was a beautiful video. Bravo vogue.
What an amazingly sweet soul…no wonder David lived her so much!
Everything she said in this video showed me their inexplicably beautiful bond with each other, but her story about how they loved the same book even before they met is just... It touched me so. I wish I could feel a connection that strong with somebody someday
it will happen for you soon , that’s god’s promise to you. 🥺
The love that this woman had for David is beautiful and moving. Also their house is absolutely gorgeous
Totally agree. It's their* house, and her love is special. (Just a friendly correction 😀)
I miss David Bowie, but to hear her speak of him makes me feel that he is always present. Their love story is beautiful.

I felt the same way!
David's soul is eternal. Like yours.
Looks like they loved one another very much. That type of love is rare, almost non-existent in today's world.
I love to watch these for the beauty of design but what struck me about this one was how everything Iman showed was so personal and meaningful to her. It was so full of love, light and energy and her connections to others in life, that is was moving. It also made me tear up to see how much she misses David- I think of all of these I've ever watched, this one was by far the most beautiful- because of how authentic, genuine and deeply lovely Iman is.
Imaan really is such a resilient woman. Her love for David is so vehement, so transcendent that even til this day you can see that she is still moved to tears by his memory. Such a beautiful thing. To love and to be loved. I hope to find a love as great as theirs one day.
They had the kind of love that never dies it just shifts with changing times. Iman is such a legend this was so sad but lovely to watch
1 in a million. You can tell they always thought about eachother
That painting by her daughter is really a thing of beauty.
I was almost in tears as I watched it. The house is beautiful, inside and out, but Imani is a beautiful women and so is her warm spirit and the everlasting love she has for David.
When I say tears came to my eyes when she talked about David.. I could hear the love in her voice. Her overall beauty is just breathtaking. The house is so peaceful, warm, filled with love… absolutely beautiful!
You really must not criticise Iman who knows how long grief goes on and she was utterly and completely Loved by David every single day of their marriage, the Queen Mother missed the King her husband for fifty five years .
@@sheilagreer-smith How was L.W. criticising? Can't you understand comments?
The love she has for that man is strong! She’s a loyal woman and they are lucky to have each other. RIP DAVID BOWIE
The way her eyes sparkled while she was talking about some things, especially of stacking stones, was absolutely beautiful.
This just made me love her more. She has character, class, intelligence, empathy and is filled with a steady light. Seeing the care, thoughtfulness and depth of love in the connection she & David shared is really indicative of twin flame connection. Exquisite
that is real love, she still feels him strongly in her heart, her house is dedicated to the two of them, you wears him around her neck, and they will be intertwined forever. she truly is honoring david in the best possible way. she didn't want to show of expensive wardrobes, she wanted to show items that had meaning, and talk about the love she had for other people, it was never talking about herself but others
Her sharing her love story still gives me hope that true love does exists out there somewhere.
You can see why he loved her so much. She has the most beautiful energy
I seriously watch this monthly because it's so beautiful and relaxing.
This made me cry. Sending peace and love to Iman and David and family.
I’m so happy to see more of her and hear her stories 🤍

I was just thinking the same thing. She's a legend and she should be showcased as much as possible.
Love her house.. It is not too unnecessarily huge nor too ambitious or flamboyant looking.. It's a very down to earth style, touched and mostly decorated by the ambiance of nature - the glass walls which would reconnect you right away to nature.. Her pieces which have stories to tell instead of "price tags" to share with you.. Until now she is one of my favourite models out there, she has always been relatable, relaxed and her fame or who she is out there didn't seem to change her humbling personality, and no wonder why David fell in love with her - she is such a rare find.
Wow. A phenomenal woman. The love she feels for his memory and spirit is strong. She really misses him, it seems. Great tribute, Iman.
So simple, honest and truly beautiful. As a widow myself l understand her attachment to the husband that she lost. As long as our loved ones live in our hearts and in our homes we never REALLY lose them.
This video was so moving, I'm in tears. She is such a lovely woman, you can feel her goodness and love through the screen. She has so much love for her husband, and she lives with him despite his passing.
beautifully said
@@ziggytheduke Thank you!
You can just tell that there is just so much grief happening with her still and I understand completely losing a loved one is never easy. The only way that you could just live on with your life is the memories... sweet memories.
So true!!!! 😭
@@adriannespring8598 🥺🙏🏼
Someone said to me that grief is the price we pay for love…. Grief is love enduring. Their relationship is so beautiful 🥰
@@cmcm4204 the queen said that 🤗
I love how sentimental she is .. love and friendship are so treasured by her.
wow they really loved each other a lot. the way iman speaks of david and cherishes their memory together is a sign of true love.
It seems clear that Iman's "love language" is gift giving. I am the polar opposite however Iman has just opened my eyes to how lovely it can be. 💗
It’s mine too, it’s nice to see how they both always gave each other thoughtful gifts. Love it 😊
Im sure many if tbese gifts were quite expensive
When Iman and David were married, I remember thinking “everything is right in the world”. They are so wonderful together.
They were a perfect match.
They’re still married, he’s just dead
And it hasn’t been the same since he passed. Forever missed😥
I'm so glad David found happiness with Iman. I could see such a light in his eyes in every photo of them together. She gave him that.
A beautiful thought 💜
i cannot get over the painting her daughter made. absolutely beautiful
I certainly cried. What a beautiful human, and clearly David was too. Love never dies.
Having lost my husband of 30 years, i know her pain.
While you go on, you live, you might even love again. But you never get past it. The days go by and youre doing ok. Then a song or a place maybe even a smell and you think OH! I have to tell...then it hits you again. You cant. Cant ever tell them again.
Our childrens milestones. The grandchildren weve had since hes been gone.
All those joys have a bit of sadness.
Its been 13 years and everyday i miss him.
So Iman , I inderstand.
So sorry for your loss 🙏🏽
This made me cry. Alot.
Never thought I could feel love through a screen. The amount of LOVE within her and for her beloved husband David Bowie is truly amazing and inspiring.
I have always loved Iman. Such awe and respect for this amazing and down to earth woman. I was never an HSN person until I saw her one day on the show. So of course I bought a few of her pieces including travel bags and jewelry and I still cherish them to this day because of course they are Iman. She is a role model to so many and even though we are close in age I am still in awe of her. David Bowie I have loved since the early 1970's while in high school. To score tickets to one of his concerts in Detroit was the buzz of the school. His brilliant and unique talent is like no other and I am still very sad about his passing when I am reminded of him on the internet or in music. I have always loved David Bowie and when he married Iman it seemed to be a match made in heaven. A beautiful and exceptional couple beloved around the world. I am only one of their many fans but they have touched my life in so many ways throughout the years. I never pass an article or video where they are featured. God bless Iman now and forever more.
Some of us will never get to experience love like Iman and David did
This was so calming to watch. David is there with her every step of the way. Love this so much.
Hey ....
Iman conversation about her journey with her husband David was as breathtaking as the the mountains around the house. The unconditional love and the way she spoke about him in such kindness was so beautiful. It didn't even seem like a house she was showing you, it was like a picture of her soul.
I loved every moment of this video. What a lovely woman! The painting her daughter made is out of this world...really touched my heart.
Iman is beautiful ! Her and David seem like such a genuine real connection something you don’t see often! That Bag must be worth so much now!!
Iman is so grounded. I love how grateful she is of the people in her life. And her endless love for her amazing husband. She is lovely.
I could listen to her speak for hours. Her voice feels like a mother's embrace. What a woman.
I have followed both you and David for many years with the deepest respect for your true and spiritual love for each other. Bless you both.
Their love is just so beautiful that it still carries on strongly with Iman's memories. The way she shares her memories, truly touching.
The way she still speaks of him is beautiful. Their love seemed so magnetic. May we all have a beautiful love story to tell .
The minute you see this woman, you want to become friends with her. She is so amazing!
She is drop dead gorgeous ---still after all of these years. She has 50 years buzz about her beauty.
I so love this video. Thank you Iman. I love how you honor and share your beautiful memories of your husband David. Thank you for sharing a little bit of your grieving process and how you've come through to now finding joy in your memories. Your heartfelt and soulful expression helps me through my own grief, the loss of my husband and love of my life James. Thank you.🙏🏼
I cried throughout this entire video. The love she has for him is incredible
Crying now
I'm crying too it's infectious, rare and beautiful to see and feel the love she has for her husband
Why
Usually I learn a lot of decorticating idea but this video taught me that having beautiful things is great but having someone special to share it with is priceless. ❤️❤️❤️
That is a beautiful sentiment, I bet she would be honored.
It breaks my heart to hear her speak of Bowie with such kind and loving words.
0:13 seconds in and I'm already emotional when she lovingly shows the little David and Iman sculpture and says, "It's David and I. Forever intertwined." Please don't make me cry 🥺💖😭
Edit, one minute later: "Obviously the most important part of the house, my husband, David Bowie." IMAN STOP 🥺💕
The energy this woman has is almost divine!
The house is so beautiful and filled with things that have only personal meaning to them. Unlike other celebrities' homes, it doesn't give off "thrown money at designer" vibes.
Oof the way she moves and talks and everything. The sophistication
im so glad she shared some of these pieces with the rest of the world.
This video touched me. I didn't need to see the whole house to know it's beauty. What an elegant and special way to present your objects and the love for yours husband.
Touched me to 💗😭💗
I respect her so much: incredible creativity, elegance, wonderful manners.
She looks right for her age
NOt to forget her sweetness!
She’s a rich model. Stop deifying the mega wealthy. She has no real problems or stress. It’s easy to be calm.
@@jenm1 She had had stress enough in her life. To be black rich supermodel in America and Europe is already very stressful.
What creativity?
I haven't seen Iman interviewed before.Such an elegant and wise woman.She and Bowie were the perfect match and she is a loyal wife but she shouldn't make the rest of her life a memorial to him and put it on hold.I'm sure he wouldn't want her to be frozen in time.Vogue should make more of these 'Objects of Affection' films to complement all the models and make-up ones!
Wow this is very touching and very personal that she has allowed people into a very emotional space for her. This woman just exudes such grace and class with a very down to earth quality, it’s very calming.
