Outlasting The Hollywood Curse: Iman and David Bowie Celebrate 20 Years of Love

How did two of the prettiest people on earth manage to keep their marriage going for twenty years? We don’t know but more celebrity couples need to obviously consult with this very dynamic duo. Iman and David Bowie recently celebrated 20 years of marriage, and even longer in courtship. They met in 1990 on a blind date (how does that even happen?) and haven’t looked back since.

The couple have one daughter between them, 12 year old Alexandria Zahra; Iman has a daughter from a previous relationship, 34 year old Zulekha Haywood, and David Bowie has a son from a previous marriage named Zowie Bowie (isn’t that name just whimsical?).

In all their years of matrimony, we haven’t really heard much in the way of negative rumors surrounding their marriage. When Iman gets a break from her cosmetics business, maybe she can write a how-to book on how to keep a relationship thriving under the celebrity spotlight.

Congrats to the happy couple on reaching such a happy milestone. Check out this pic that Iman tweeted of her and her hubby back in the day.

    Congratulations Iman and David! Not many marriages last even half that time. You both show that if a relationship is worth going the distance for that all a couple needs is a pair of running shoes.

    Congrats! I love it when a man appreciates his wife and David Bowie looks like he knows what he’s got and he’s not messing that up.

    I agree with previous guest about all your ads. I just sometimes do not want to come to your page. I always clicked over from face book however I find myself not clicking over as much as I use to.
    It is a shame because I love most of your articles. Then while I am reading, you have the talking ad. However I did notice today that the ad did talk a little and stopped and I was very surprized of that.
    Just limit some of the ads. I know that is how you make your money however you are going to lose some of your viewers.

    Great to see a Hollywood couple having a successful marriage….I wish them the best.

    That picture of them together is beautiful.

    Well they keep their relationship private for one thing. They know how to separate their work from their marriage. Very smart on their part. Most celebrity couples that keep everyone in their business are the ones that don’t last. Love the Twitter picture. Classy, very classy and beautiful.
    P.s. I don’t like this new layout, MN. Unorganized and the pop-ups got to go. Some of them take up the whole screen and you can’t close them.

      I don’t like the new layout as well.

      I agree with you. It seems to be the couples whose relationships are always in the spotlight who don’t last long.

  • Guest

    Isn’t Bowie an openly admitted bi-sexual? Maybe that’s why their relationship lasted so long…They accepted each other for who they are.

    I WANTED to talk about Iman and David, but there’s a problem.

    THESE F****** ADS ARE RIDICULOUS! TAKES 20 MIN FOR THE PAGE TO LOAD! AND HOW ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE A VIDEO LINK ON THE FRONT PAGE THEN AUTOMATICALLY HAVE THE SAME F****** VIDEO (+ANOTHER ONE AND AN AD!) PLAY ON IT’S OWN ON A PAGE THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT?! MADAME ON THE STREET BLOWS ANYWAY!

      Yep.

      What helped me was installing ad-block on my browser. Those ads are sooo annoying!

    Too bad this didn’t work for JLO and Ben but Ben wanted out and didn’t think JLO was good enough for him , plus his moms hated her.
