Earlier on the day of David Bowie's death, the Daily Mail published a lengthy interview with the singer's ex-wife, Angie, who currently lives in Acworth .

The story surrounded her participation in Britain's "Celebrity Big Brother" reality show, but, of course much of the focus was on her contentious relationship with David.

On Monday, the show released a statement that Angie was notified of David's death off-camera. She apparently decided to go on-camera to express her grief at his passing.
