Peaches' death: ‘How is this possible that we will not see her again?’

She remembered the day her own mother died but her own children are too young to do the same and therein lies the greatest tragedy in the short but well-lived life of 25-year-old Peaches Blossom Geldof.

The mother-of-two, daughter of Bob Geldof and the late Paula Yates, was found dead at her home in Kent, yesterday afternoon, a death police described as “non-suspicious” but “unexplained”.

Her father last night described himself as “beyond pain”.
