Angela Bowie

Childhood in two countries

Mary Angela Barnett was born on 25 September 1949 in Cyprus, where her father worked in a mining company. Every three years her family returned to the States to visit relatives. Such travel round-trip cannot be called normal, but Angela kind of life was like. Her father didn't like to come to the US, he didn't like how there were black. Mother, on the contrary, being a native of Canada, loved the convenience of American shopping.

Relationship with your brother

Her mother was 42 years old when Angela was born. Angela's brother was 16 years older than her, so they had the traditional sibling relationship. They saw each other only at the time when my brother and father also attended the University of Montana, where his father had gotten an engineering degree.

Adolescence and youth

As a teenager, Angela Barnett didn't feel the need to rebel. From 9 to 16 years of age she went to school in Montreux, Western Switzerland, and it was heaven. For the Easter holidays, the girl went to England for Christmas and summer vacation were returning to Cyprus. She enjoyed the independence. Angela didn't realize how lucky she is until years later not heard how people talk about their experiences of growing up. In her childhood, had no problems and disputes, Angela managed to avoid disagreements with their parents.

At 16, she left Switzerland to go to America with a burning desire to start the adventure of your life. She entered Connecticut College for women. Here she began a romantic relationship with a girl that ended an incident that is remembered forever: "the Psychiatrist grabbed me and my friend and locked in the operating room. I had to convince the nurse to bring me clothes. I jumped out of a second floor window and ran to my Dorm. I Packed my things and flew to Cyprus in a few days. I was an outcast in his own country".

Life with David Bowie

David Bowie

She met Bowie in 1969 when she was 19, and he was a young rock star. Angela Bowie was 22 when she gave birth to a son, Zoe, just a year after he and David were married in 1970. She wasn't ready for it. In this period of life people played thousands of different roles: user, employee, parent, lover, child. It was too much for her.

Now they are with zoey, or Duncan, as he now calls himself, does not communicate. He wrote to the mother, but no progress happened and reconciliation is unlikely.

David and Angela broke up in 1976 and subsequently divorced. Their divorce proceedings cannot be called peaceful. After termination of the relationship David has completely removed Angela from his life and otherwise have otrezal her contribution in his success. Her opinion on this sounds pretty philosophical: "Famous men frequently do that when they feel threatened by the influence of women. They want to be thought of as independent geniuses. God forbid that a woman helped them succeed. Picasso did the same with their women - he was making them crazy."

After her divorce from David, at the age of 31 years, Angela Bowie gave birth to a daughter Stacey, it was her gift to myself. This child was to Angela's absolute delight, because she was not a man who'd annoyed her, and she swore that she will keep forever with the daughter of a good relationship. Now they communicate two or three times a day and texting a lot.

David Bowie was the opposite of Angela's father because of how he treated her. Dad even struck zoey from education Fund, which he created for children of Angela. Angela's parents loved and Zoe and Stacey, they were worried not spend with his grandson enough time, because after the divorce of their daughter with the care David received the boy's father.

The role of the grandmother

Angela Barnett

Angela Bowie not interested in the role of grandmother. She says: "Children are good when they're yours, but I'm not interested in other people's children. You tolerate them because they are yours. My parents were with me for a long time as was busy with something, but they were not disgusting. They were awesome".
