Iron Maiden singer, Bruce Dickinson has claimed he has “never had to buy shower gel or soap for the last 10 years”. Residing in hotels whilst living on the road, the rocker has said he has “a huge collection of soaps.”
Quizzed by host of AXS TV’s At Home And Social With, Katie Daryl, if he likes using soap or shower gel when showering, Dickinson revealed he takes “whatever is available. I actually have a huge collection of soaps from hotels from all over the world, and I’ve never had to buy shower gel or soap for the last 10 years.
“My girlfriend, she’s absolutely mad. She goes and buys all this stuff,” Dickinson continued. “I’m, like, ‘Okay, well, that’s for you. We’ve got a year’s supply there. But me, I’ll take [whatever is available].’ ‘Hmm, I wonder what this one does.’ … And then you get the funny-shaped ones as well. I’m always intrigued by horseshoe-shaped soap. It’s, like, ‘What’s that for? And where does that go?’ These are things that are given to you in hotels. You think, ‘Who thought that one up?’ Soap with little scratchy bits on it. So, I use whatever comes to hand.”
As reported by Blabbermouth, Dickinson’s second wife was found dead in their once-shared Chiswick home in West London, 2020. Following a “tragic accident”, London Ambulance Service confirmed that the patient was pronounced dead on arrival.
The pair married in 1990, following two years of dating, and shared three children: Austin, Griffin, and Kia. Privately splitting from Bowden in 2018, Dickinson, 63, now reportedly lives in Paris with fitness instructor, Leana Dolci.
Dickinson is set to embark on a two-month North American spoken-word tour later this month. While Maiden released its first LP in six years and 17th studio album, Senjutsu, in September via BMG. The album had been recorded in Paris, 2019, with longstanding producer Kevin Shirley, and co-produced by bassist Steve Harris.
