I'm in tears listening to Bob's statement being read out

RIP

What we need now is for Kay Burley to come on and emote heavily while also managing to be patronising and smarmy.

Very sad news.

Here's a clip of the late Peaches Geldof on This Morning debating with Katie Hopkins.

I thought she came across very well, and it's worth a look in case anyone assumes that being from a showbiz family automatically makes her some sort of irresponsible hedonist.

Have a look at it if you have time.

Heartbreaking to hear that news- especially heartbreaking considering all the Geldof family have been through to date. RIP.

Same age as her, sorry to hear this. She seemed troubled a lot of the time (though not as obviously as others in the celeb world, so people called her more annoying than troubled). She seemed to be getting her act together more in recent years, especially after having children. Bob Geldof has had his fair share of tragedy RIP

Kinda ironic, I was just reading the Kurt Cobain thread.

Such a tragedy when childern lose there parents so young. As strange as it may seem, I hope it was natural for the sake of her family and friends

Awful to think her poor babies will grow up without a mother just as grew up without hers.

She was much too young, she had so much going for her. A fantastic mother with very informed and educated opinions on parenting.

So sad, RIP.

Just heard the statement from Bob there on RTE, terribly sad for the family.

Bob Geldof's statement is pretty heart moving.

Wasn't it a beautiful tribute to her? I'm not a big fan of Sir Bob but really feel for him.

Another terrible tragedy for this poor family. RIP

What a tragedy. Beautiful young mother, and talented I've no doubt. RIP.

She seemed to take to motherhood very well. Her sons' birthdays are later this month too, I think. Pretty sure they're April babies. I think one of them may have been even born the same day as her mother.

I don't want to think it's suicide. That would be terribly tragic.

Mrs Garth Brooks

So sad. RIP

The speculator was right; heroin overdose.

**Apologies, the heroin death was her mother's, I mis-read it.

So sad, such a beautiful girl dying at such a young age, absolutely tragic RIP.

Red Crow

Shocking RIP

dee_mc

Unverified of course but one news source (mentioned but not named on Facebook) has suggested her death was caused by an aneurism.

Shocking news RIP

Smidge

It really is heartbreaking.
How much can one family endure?
I really hope they find the strength to get through another very sad chapter in their families lives.
Rip to the poor girl and condolences to her family

Nemeses

Nothing in that link mentions it was a suspected heroin overdose...

Grid.

Awful news.....her poor little boys!:(

StompToWork

I think you'll find that was in relation to her mother, Paula Yates.

IsMiseMyself

The cause of death hasn't been confirmed yet.

There's speculation of drug use, but no one knows yet. The mention of an overdose is re: her mother. It's probably a weird thing to say, but I hope it wasn't an overdose.

Smidge

Where does it say that?
I see no mention of it in that article(and its a rag to boot)

xzanti

Shocked... gutted for her family..

She always struck me as a good Mother, despite the press trying to tear her down at every opportunity!!

RIP Peaches

Da Shins Kelly

Paula Yates died of a heroin overdose...

fryup

in her DNA i suppose, what with her mother and all that

RIP

BANNED

Skid X

No, that article refers to Paula Yates death from an overdose.

dee_mc

The excerpt you quoted concerns Paula Yeats' death from a heroin overdose, and nothing in the Daily Fail link refers to a heroin overdose in relation to Peaches' death.
