Yesterday on January 10, Alexandria ‘Lexi’ Zahra Jones, the daughter of David Bowie, shared a wholesome home video to commemorate the anniversary of the music legend’s death.
David Bowie passed away seven years ago on January 10, 2016, following a private battle with cancer over the course of 18 months. Two days before his passing (January 8), the musician shared his final album, ★ (Blackstar), on his 69th birthday.
Taking to Instagram to mark her father’s anniversary, Lexi shares heart-warming footage of her as a child playing the keyboard with Bowie at home.
Alongside the video, the 22-year-old posts an adorable image of her when she was a toddler, dressed in a lion costume and holding a rainbow umbrella, while sat on her father’s lap. As a caption, she writes: “7 years ago today. I miss you ❤️”.
Lexi’s mother/Bowie’s widow Iman, who was married to the star from 1992, shared a serene monochrome image of the pair on social media alongside the line: “For a couple of moments in the immensity of time, we were one”, with the hashtags: “#EternalLove #bowieforever”.
