Peaches, daughter of musician Bob Geldolf, died at age 25

A very sad event for a very unhappy family -- but, really, what sort of father would publicly describe his recently deceased daughter as "bonkers"?

Maybe she was "Bonkers"?

I am not saying that she doesn't deserve respect - she just doesn't deserve any more respect than anyone else

I understand where you are coming from. I was pretty surprised to see the death of a daughter of a sort-of-famous musician getting so much attention.

It might be because dad and his pals have a lot of political clout in the UK.

(Bob, Waheed & Charlie funded and publicized Tony Blairs Labour Party election and win)

No it does not.

"Recent use of heroin and the levels identified were likely to have played a role in her death."

Big difference.

Did she have a history of drug/alcohol abuse? RIP
