    Iman has paid tribute to Prince following his shock death.

    The 60-year-old supermodel - whose husband David Bowie lost his battle with cancer in January - has sent her condolences to the singer's loved ones and fans after he passed away on Thursday the 21.04.16.


    Sharing a throwback picture of the 'Kiss' hitmaker, she wrote on Instagram: "RIP Prince! Condolences to his family, friends and fans #ripprince.(sic)"

    Meanwhile, Prince's tailor - who also worked with David Bowie - has spoke of his sadness at the star's passing so soon after his other friend and famous client.

    Manu Melwani told Time magazine: "He was very skinny ... spoke very little.

    "I just lost [another] good friend of mine. David Bowie."

    The walls of Manu's Sam's Tailor store in Hong Kong is lined with pictures of famous people who used his services, including Kate Moss, former US President Bill Clinton and the late Michael Jackson, but there is no picture of famously reclusive Prince.

    The tailor explained: "He didn't want a picture."

    A post-mortem examination is being carried out today (22.04.16), although it's not thought his death involved foul play.

    Prince was believed to have been suffering from flu for several weeks, but it was reported last night that he was treated for an overdose last week.

    His spokesperson has not confirmed the claims.
