Peaches Geldoff Has Died

[hc4361]

Only 25, very sad news.

The police are saying that the death was non-suspicious (not that that is any surprise really). Terribly sad, given the family history and I feel sorry for her father who has had enough shocks in his life.

I thought she was an absolute sweetie.

To be honest, I don't know about this. It's a shame that a 25 year old mother of two kids dies - of drugs??? We don't yet know.

But if so, and as suggested, why? Did the family know she was popping them? If yes, then why not some remedial action - surely someone knew or had their deep suspicions? If no, what were the family dynamics that led her to this - if depression, then why didn't they know/have any idea?

All questions, I know.

The days ahead may tell......my suspicion, and I emphasise that, pure postulation, is that this was a pretty dysfunctional unit for whatever reason, mainly money, my first 'cynical' guess.

It is a shame though to lose any young Mum, rich or poor, and my first thoughts were 'murder' - particularly when you hear of that awful attack in the Cumberland Hotel today.

My sympathies really lie with her kids.......the poor bairns.

[ummmm]

//If no, what were the family dynamics that led her to this - if depression, then why didn't they know/have any idea? //

Like Mick Jagger knew L'Wren Scott was suicidal?

Not that I'm guessing this is suicide!

[DTCwordfan]

ummmm, at this time, we just don't know. We may never know.

It's tragic and, whatever, it has to be the kids especially that one feels for. I haven't googled it (yet), but who is the Dad of them?

[DTCwordfan]

Stop being sarcastic, anne, this is not the time for that....

And no.

[ummmm]

The father is in a rock band.

[pastafreak]

Could be sudden death syndrome...or whatever its called. Very sad...so young and she looked to be a devoted mum from what little I've seen.

[smurfchops]

She posted a photo of herself with her mum Paula on Instagram few minutes before she died apparently. Could she have been depressed? What a shame.

[jno]

it was yesterday, smurfchops; I don't know when she died.

[237SJ]

Maybe she just became maudlin. You can`t see (from the outside) what is going on inside.

[murraymints]

I read police were called as there was concern expressed by some source about her welfare..they found her...

[carolegif]

No drugs found and no suspicious death. Looks like she may have committed suicide. Perhaps she had post natal depression.

[Baldric]

Very sad, and only 25!
Oh's Granddaughter (from first marriage) knew her well, were both at Elle Magazine, will be interesting to see what comes out.

[Butterbun]

Very tragic. Sympathy to the family. RIP Peaches.

[Ann]

Poor Bob, how painful for him. I can't stop thinking of those very young children perhaps crying themselves to sleep as I write, wanting their Mummy. Why do they do it to their children its so so sad.

[baza]

such a shame, a young mum, tragic.

[Ann]

I have just checked how old the children are - even younger sons than I thought...... Astala Dylan Willow will be 2 on 21 April and Phaedra Bloom Forever will be 1 on 24 April. I feel so sorry for their father Tom .......
