Celebrity Big Brother star Angie Bowie told Ray D'Arcy that she doesn't fancy doing any more reality TV, referencing the unusual incident in the house when Tiffany Pollard thought David Gest had died, rather than her ex-husband David Bowie.
Speaking on Saturday's Ray D'Arcy Show, the star recounted the farcical conversation which happened between them, and said she probably wouldn't consider reappearing on a reality TV show for fear something worse might happen, saying: "I don't think so. And I don't mean to close doors but you know what I'm saying here? If that could happen the first time, think what could happen the second time. They'd carry me out!"

The former model and actress, who was married to Bowie for nine years from 1970 to 1980, also reminisced about the unconventional manner in which Bowie proposed.
She told Ray: "I had gone back to Cyprus to be with my mum and dad, and there was a postal strike in England. I never heard from him, the phones didn't work and then the postal strike stopped and I got this envelope and in it was a postcard which said 'This year we will marry.' and I thought 'Righty-oh then. Jolly good'.
"And as I put it down and I went to find my mom to tell her about this weird thing, the phone went and he [Bowie] went 'Did you get my letter?' and I said 'Yes' and he said 'Ok well never mind the letter, I mean that, but now I want you to hear this song I wrote for you.' And he played The Prettiest Star down the phone with Mark Boland putting the lead guitar on it from the studio, it was very cool! And that kind of melted my heart."
Ray asked her "It it the ultimate for a man to write a song for a woman?" to which she jokingly replied: "I don't think so but it sure perked me up as opposed to the postcard saying 'This year we will marry.' I was like 'Excuse me. What about asking?!'"
