Life After The Death of Sultan Salahuddin
She came back into the limelight on New Year's Day in 2006 for an exclusive interview by The Star Malaysia, where the newspaper had wrongly addressed her as Tuanku Siti Aishah. The Selangor Council of the Royal Court has then immediately responded by stating that the former consort of the late Sultan of Selangor should be addressed as Yang Amat Mulia Permaisuri Siti Aishah binti Abdul Rahman. The honorific title Yang Amat Mulia was in recognition of the Darjah Kerabat Yang Amat Dihormati (DK, The Most Honourable Royal Family Order of Selangor), which was conferred on her by her late husband Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah.
In the interview, she talked about her life since the late king (whom she fondly referred to as Almarhum) died, how she coped with his death with her family's love and support, her nephews Abdul Aziz (whom the late king named after himself shortly before he died) and Abdul Azim as her solace, her role as the former queen of Malaysia, her relationship with the late king, and her hope to find love and remarry again, with her parents' blessings.
Permaisuri Siti Aishah also the patron of the UiTM Alumni, Selangor Women’s Association, Selangor Girl Guides, Jantung Hatiku Society and Girl Guides Association of Malaysia.
