She’s never been anything but a wild child, but it seems that Peaches Geldof’s latest scandal is too much for her poor dad, Sir Bob, who is urging the 21-year-old to go to rehab. However, like Amy Winehouse before her, Peaches is saying no, no, no.
Recently, nude photos of the blonde socialite with a wound from alleged heroin use surfaced on the internet. While Peaches’ lawyers have strongly denied the drug-taking, Bob is reportedly terrified that his oldest daughter is heading down the same track as her mother Paula Yates, who died of an overdose in 2000.
A source close to the family says, “Bob was livid, especially after what happened to her mum. But Peaches was really tearful. She kept apologising and told him her drink and drugs days are over. She claims she’s clean now and there’s no need to go to rehab.”
Peaches was dropped as the face of oiss Ultimo lingerie after the scandal broke but apparently she’s not too upset. our source tells, “She claims she’s ‘clean as a whistle’ now and that she’s got good friends in LA who’ll keep her on the straight and narrow. We hope she’s right, but she’s still going out most nights and she’s certainly not leading a quiet life.
“Bob knows he’s fighting a losing battle, but he’s scared that pushing her too hard will mean he loses her for good. That’s the last thing he wants to happen. He’s going to have to grin and bear it while she learns from her mistakes.””
