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.
