Peaches Geldof, daughter of Band Aid founder Bob Geldof, has died at her home in Kent, southern England, aged 25, British media reported April 7. 

Peaches Geldof, who was married for the second time and had two young sons, had worked as a DJ, model and television personality. 

Her mother, Paula Yates, died aged 41 from a heroin overdose in 2000. 

In a statement, Kent Police said: "Police were called at 13:35 on 7 April, 2014 to an address near Wrotham following a report of concern for the welfare of a woman. A woman aged 25 was pronounced dead by South East Coast Ambulance Service. Officers are working to establish the circumstances around the death."

"We are beyond pain. She was the wildest, funniest, cleverest, wittiest and the most bonkers of all of us. Writing 'was' destroys me afresh. What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable?" Bob Geldof said in a statement.

"We loved her and will cherish her forever. How sad that sentence is. Tom and her sons Astala and Phaedra will always belong in our family, fractured so often, but never broken," the statement continued.
