David didn't have a good word for Angie either for years ...

But that's not the point, BB needs to do the right thing and tell Angie. Out of respect Angie needs to leave the house.
Angie maybe estranged from her son, but doing the right thing now may start to heal the rift between them.

With a mother like that - who left him at 13 - Duncan would be better off if she just left him alone.

Pretty obvious they will tell her. She's really only there because she was his ex. I just hope they don't do it on camera.

She didn't leave her son *sighs* ...
was a condition of the divorce that David had sole custody of Duncan & Angie didn't want to split the pair up as they had a very close bond.

I find that to be very strange.

Not really - she said on CBB that she was taking a lot of drugs at the time, going off the rails, and she knew she couldn't give the stability he needed & he would be better off with David.

I'm no fan of hers, but I think she did the right thing.

I agree

But she could of seen her son when she was free of drugs.

Absolutely. ..and several documentaries

They are - but I doubt that she would be invited. She has no connection with the family, anymore.

I am sure that she will leave the House & use it as a money-spinner. Her whole identity seems to be based on her 'Bowie' marriage.

Let's hope his death will effect a reconciliation between mother & son.

Iman is the wife.

I doubt the family would want Angie anywhere near them.

Let's just say, had she not been in the house just now literally no one would have a clue who she was let alone be calling for her to reconcile with her son and be there for him.

She has been hanging on Bowie's coat tails for 40 years and she is going to milk this for everything she can.

Well unless he does not consider Angle his mother anymore, maybe Iman is his mother figure. In that case would he go to Angie's funeral in the future??

Well that's ok then......

Maternal reaction is one of the hardest things for a person to ever go through. A child's first line of defence is its mother, this woman just walked away and cried about losing her job ffs

Still after 18 custody agreements wouldn't have gotten in the way of them rekindling some sort of relationship once she sorted herself out.

So many years passing with no communication can't be entirely down to the reasoning at that time of custody agreement.

Any child would be bitter

My mother really loved his music and that's how I got to know some of his songs. Such sad news and my condolences go out to his family. Rip.

Getting a head of myself here. But it makes me wonder if she was paid off. To leave and never have contact with David, or her son. That why she so bitter towards David.

I'm sure David Gest must have known him personally too.

Reportedly her divorce settlement had a 20 year gagging order so I guess the conditions attached might well have limited contact.

David knows everybody.

I agree, not to see your son for all those years, it does seem strange. I would have died.

Does not freak me out, but l know where you are coming from.

according to Angie........David turned their son against her ,

and from what she's said in the house, she's the one who's bitter ! because she said she wanted a relationship with her son.

We don't know the 'son', he's never known anything different than David and his family bringing him up so who's to say he's bitter ? --but we don't know the ins and outs, there's always two sides, but families are complicated are they not ?

funny the uproar when a mother decides to leave their child with the father,and never the other way round isn't it

It's only because of Angie being in CBB i've even heard of her, and a very unfortunate timing for David Bowie's family having his past and relationship with Angie splashed all over the papers recently, and now he's sadly passed. One of the true greats.

I just read online that Angie's son is a successful film director, known for Moon, Source Code.....who knows he may pick up the phone and call his mother as they have both lost the person that connected them.

You may not know who Angie is, but my generation who were brought up with David's music knew exactly who Angie is.
