David Bowie's wife, Iman 60yrs, coming out after husbands passing

Sad: The lovely lady, who married Bowie in Tuscany in 1992, has a 15-year-old daughter called Lexi with the star - and hid her eyes behind a pair of sunglasses

Iman Abdulmajid has been seen for the first time since her beloved husband David Bowie died of cancer two days after his 69th birthday.
The supermodel left their New York home to take her dog for a short walk on Tuesday morning. She wore a black coat, thick scarf and gloves to keep warm. 
Iman, 60, married Bowie in 1992 and the couple have a daughter called Lexi, who is now 15.

The pet dog has two different coloured eyes and for years, it was thought that Bowie suffered from a condition called heterochromia, when both irises are two different colours. 
But he revealed that he was punched in the eye by his best friend at school and one of his pupils was left permanently dilated.
The superstar musician died on January 10 after a private 18-month battle against cancer, plunging shocked fans across the world into deep mourning.
Iman has made no public comment about the loss of her husband but posted a number of messages in the days before and after his death.
She shared an image on Twitter saying, 'The struggle is real, but so is God,' along with the caption 'Rise', on the day of he died. 
In another tweet, she included the message: 'Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory.'

To mark his birthday on January 8, she wrote: 'I will love you til i die, i will see you in the sky #tonight happy birthday mr. bowie,' next to a photograph of her husband with Tina Turner. [sic].
'Happy Birthday to the man who fell to earth. Forever Bowie,' read another.
'Life isn't about avoiding the bruises. It's about collecting the scars to prove we showed up for it,' she wrote to her 108,000 Twitter followers Friday. 
Iman's longtime friend Bethann Hardison told PEOPLE in January that she is doing her best to stay strong, saying: 'She's fine. We're fine. We're holding up.
'It comes in waves, you know. He's a great loss – not just a loss as an artist, but as a human.'
Back in 1995, David was asked by journalist Simon Witter what his greatest achievement had been, and he replied: ‘Marrying my wife’.
Simon then asked him, ‘But as a musician?’
‘Nothing else matters,’ said David.
Before his marriage to Iman, Bowie was married to Angie Barnett from 1970 to 1980, with their son Duncan, originally known as Zowie Bowie, born in 1971.
Duncan Jones is now a successful film director whose works include 2009's Moon and Source Code, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, from 2011. 
David's producer, Tony Visconti suggested that Bowie knew for a year that his cancer was incurable, and added that his final album Blackstar - recorded in early 2015, after the singer's diagnosis - was 'a parting gift' to the world.
