The former Raja Permaisuri Agong dropped out of the public eye after the death of the beloved King in 2001. In an exclusive interview with The Star, her first with any media organisation since becoming a widow, Yang Amat Mulia Siti Aishah Abdul Rahman talks about her love for the late Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah and their fairy tale-like life together, her nephew who helped soothe her heart in some of her darkest moments, and the possibility of remarriage and having children of her own. Still beautiful and looking much younger than her 34 years, she spoke for more than two hours with WONG CHUN WAI, JOCELINE TAN and M. KRISHNAMOORTHY on a wide range of topics that brought out tears as well as laughter and the sparkle in her

YANG Amat Mulia Siti Aishah Abdul Rahman looked quite regal as she entered the central suite of Carcosa Seri Negara.
