David Bowie succumbed to cancer a month ago at the age of 69, just two days after his newest record, Blackstar, was released. It subsequently rocketed to the top of the charts in much of the world. Jones had told Bowie of his impending grandchild at Christmas, he says. The baby is due in June.
Jones is the child of Bowie and his first wife, Angie.
