People stared at the make-up on his face…(Well, not everybody)

Was it difficult raising another baby so much later in life?
?The difference between rearing a child in your 20s and one in your 50s is one of patience,? Iman says. ?I was at the height of my career when I had my first child, and I took her with me around the world. Then I had to root her in school. It was difficult to leave her behind. Now this one thinks she has it tough because both her old parents are at home with her all the time. When Lexi was about 4, she first saw a picture of David as Ziggy Stardust [one of Bowie?s flamboyant stage personas]. ?Why is his hair orange?? she wanted to know.? Iman laughs. ?The makeup didn?t faze her.
?David certainly has more of a sense of humor than the first man I married,? Iman continues. ?With David, it?s a cabaret from morning to night. We can talk about literally anything?from fashion to religion.?

Lol…well Lexi has a few more surprises to come if she hasn’t already seen them…from her father’s 1964 TV appearance on the BBC Tonight programme as the founder of The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Long-haired Men right up to his Fashion Rocks performance of Life On Mars? 41 years later. Boy, he’s got some explaining to do!
