David Bowie's ex-wife Angie Bowie has decided to stay in the Celebrity Big Brother house after being told of the singer's death.
Channel 5 said the 66-year-old had been informed off camera by her representatives, and added that she was given the option to leave the house at any time.
Ms Bowie, who was married to the singer for 10 years until she divorced him in 1980, has made tabloid headlines during her time on the programme with a series of damning comments about the singer, who died on Sunday aged 69.
