Peaches quizzed by store staff - Oct 4, 2020
Socialite Peaches Geldof was quizzed by store detectives after setting off alarms in London’s Urban Outfitters shop yesterday.
The pretty 17-year-old - daughter of Bob Geldof and the late Paula Yates - was walking out of the Oxford Street store when the alarms went off.
She was asked to go back inside where she was reportedly questioned. The police were not called.
It’s thought a security-tagged coat she was carrying triggered the alert.
One of the teenager’s close friends insisted it had been a mistake.
"It’s a misunderstanding," he is quoted by the Daily Mirror as saying.
"There was some confusion in a shop. It was quickly cleared up. There were no store detectives involved. She bought the coat."
Peaches is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying she had purchased the jacket, but that the tag had been accidentally left on.
"It’s really nothing," she said.
The shop has not commented.
Lily has a pop at Peaches - Sept 28, 2020
Loudmouth Lily Allen has apparently taken a swipe at socialite Peaches Geldof.
The outspoken chart-topper - who’s denied previous spats with the teen - says she was less than impressed with Peaches’ "really awful" television documentary on Islam.
"I watched her on Richard and Judy - she was like, ’You know, I just really think, that, like kids in this country just like, don’t know enough about Islam’. What do you know about Islam, you useless oaf?" she told Manchester’s Galaxy Radio.
It’s been reported the 21-year-old Smile singer carried on ranting about the pretty 17-year-old when she was off air.
According to the Daily Star, brunette Lily said she wanted to "kick her over and then kick her even harder when she was down".
It isn’t the first time Lily has had a go at her fellow celebs.
She recently slated pop diva Madonna, claiming the Hung Up singer was "overrated", and also - less controversially - had a dig at pampered Paris Hilton, calling her "untalented".
Peaches hit with curfew - Sept 19, 2020
Peaches Geldof apparently pulled out of a top DJing gig - because dad Bob Geldof has slapped her with a curfew. The pretty socialite - who is trying to launch a career as a DJ despite still being a schoolgirl - was said to be fuming after her famous father forced her to quit the Westfield London Fashion Week Party on Sunday.
He apparently decided the 17-year-old had been partying too much and would have to spend an evening at home. Peaches had to call organisers and tell them she wouldn’t be appearing just hours before the show, which welcomed guests such as Jade Jagger and designer Matthew Williamson.
"Sir Bob said she’d been going out too much and couldn’t come. She wasn’t best pleased," a source told the Daily Mirror.

Despite her young age she’s already a fully fledged media darling. She writes for The Daily Telegraph (on such subjects as not getting let into films and her embarrassing web-blog) and ELLEgirl magazine. She has also appeared in two documentaries, including ’Peaches Geldof: Teenage Mind’, filmed over a half-term holiday by her fathers production company. In 2006 Tatler magazine placed her at number seven in their list of Top Ten Fashion Icons.
She is known for being somewhat precocious, an image encouraged by her outspoken views. She decries the ignorance of her peers, described foxes as ’vermin’ at the height of the hunting controversy, supports Tony Blair (’It’s hard to run a country’, apparently) and George W Bush, and has expressed her support of the war in Iraq. After seeing Farenheight 9/11, she said she was ’disgusted’, and described Michael Moore as a playground bully. Kids these days, eh?
She lives in Chelsea with the family, and is studying for her A-Levels. She has expressed interest in going on to study English and Journalism at university. Past boyfriends have included 21-year-old Llewelyn Graves, the grandson of the poet Robert Graves and Alex Bradley, singer in London band Trafalgar. She has also been linked to comedians Russell Brand and Noel Fielding as well as Pete Doherty.
