    That quote is about her mother, you eejit.

    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.


    I really hope it was natural causes. Bob Geldof's mother died suddenly of a brain haemorrhage at aged 41. For the sake of all involved, I hope it was not suicide or drug related.

    Her poor family.

    I do recall that picture she tweeted with her baby in the bath with the "Ghost Hand" just before Christmas.

    Eerie.

    Oh get over it, I am sure you've never made a mistake :rolleyes:

    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.


    She really does come across as a caring intelligent lovely girl on that, in stark contrast to the wagon that was on with her.

    No doubt every rag will be throwing in points like that in order to get the rumour mill running. Honestly, when I glanced the article first, I read it the same way as you.

    Rest in peace, peaches. A beautiful strong woman, and a devoted mother.

    I wouldn't have been a great fan of her to be honest but sad to hear she has died as she lives two children behind. I remember hearing about her mother dying and remembered her being on the Big Breakfast? I was just growing up but was sad at the time. Poor kids, I wouldn't wish it on anyone so young to lose a parent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,489 ✭✭✭Yamanoto


    Jesus her poor Dad, that doesn't seem right at all.

    Always found Peaches a likeable character.

    R.I.P.

    Just shows you how fragile life can be


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,757 ✭✭✭✭The_Kew_Tour


    RIP.

    Did not know whole pile about her, bar, seeing her on Late Late and her known Dad.

    Seemed like very intelligent woman though.

    A bit morbid perhaps, but I was just going through her Instagram photos. Someday, when her kids are older, at least they'll have all the photos she took of their lives together--perhaps it might one day offer a tiny comfort.

    My own mother passed away when I was very young and I've always valued photos and that kind of thing.

    It's being described as a 'sudden and unexplained death'.
    RIP.

    R.I.P. My heart goes out to them. That extended family been visited by tragedy far more times than their fair share :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,411 ✭✭✭ABajaninCork


    So very sad. And this leave those two babies without a mother. I saw her appearance on the Sport Relief a few weeks ago with her lovely dog. I've read and enjoyed few of her articles in the Guardian, and she always seemed to be very smart, and very switched on

    After a few shaky years, she seemed to be getting it together. Mind you - I saw a picture of her last week on the 'net and she looked ill. Very thin with big sad eyes, and I wondered if all was right with her then.

    RIP Peaches. Condolences to her husband, sons and family. What a shame.

    The kids I feel the most for very very sad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,003 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    As a father of 3 girls I can't even begin to understand the pain Bob must be suffering now. God love him and the extended family.

    Yeah, and that is relevant. :rolleyes:

    RIP. Terribly tragic story. Just goes to show how grateful we all should be for life. I suppose we are all guilty of just taking it for granted.

    RIP.

    That's because she only died a few hours ago suddenly and it is therefore unexplained.

    I don't get why people always seem to look for something bad in sad stories like this.

    Sadly sometimes young people die through sudden health issues such as brain haemorrhage , aneurism, heart attack, fall etc.
