Watch David Bowie Reveal the Adorable Way He First Asked Iman Out

Every journey starts with a first step, and one of the most storied romances of all time started with just one date over afternoon tea.

Those two were soulmates to the very end.

He literally stopped partying/drugs and over drinking for her. That's not easy. That's love.

[Dakota-Rose]

Crying...I feel so sorry for Iman. The world most beautiful couple. Rip David. Love you for your inspiration.

Extremely rare for a man to have kept his marriage in his industry like he did

[ladyreverie]

The love story of Iman and Bowie is one of the greatest love stories of all time. They loved each other as much after 20 years of marriage, as they did at the start. Even now, Iman grieves and calls Bowie her forever husband, saying that she will never marry again. True love is such a beautiful thing, and I'm so damn happy they got to experience it, as tragic as it is when death separated them, the love itself will never die.

Thank you Iman for making our starman such a happy man. We could see more of his pretty smile thanks to you. Be strong, beautiful lady.

"...and of course I said yes"
I love her !!!

[christinak.]

Oh my God.. she is beautiful. And the way they talk about each other...that's love :)

“He doesn’t drink tea. He had coffee.” ☕️ 😂 😂 😂

They were married for over 20 years and even now, if you watch videos of Iman and how she talks about him, you can tell that this was true love, the kind you only experience once in your life. It's so unfair he had to leave so soon. These two truly deserved to grow old together.

"I only miss you when I'm breathing." - Iman 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[bouncyshak]

"I found her intolerably sexy" - haha, love that. Ever the wordsmith.

[oliverread]

The fact he wrote 30 albums is incredible. Most musicians struggle to put a single album together

[pgmap]

I watch this at least monthly so I can remind myself this is the type of love I need.

[i_will_not_elaborate]

"Intolerably Sexy" is the British way of saying "You're so hot, it should be illegal"

[mihalrots]

I will love you till I die"
I will see you in the sky"
Those are lyrics from his song "tonight". Dammit I'm tearing up again.

[sweiland]

Note to self: If you see a beautiful woman, ask her out for tea.

[CeLsO]

It's beautiful that he found true love and stability in the last years of his life

[Tzipporah]

Prince spoke so highly of David Bowie during one of his last shows. He was taken with how kind David Bowie was towards him, in particular

[HWolfe]

Met her before she was married to him. She was a very down to earth, stunningly beautiful lady, in personality, class, and truly breathtaking on the outside. Tears later, met her cousin, who lived in the same town I did, and the familial kindness was still apparent.
