Peaches Geldof had allegedly made several visits to a drug clinic near her home in the weeks leading up to her death, it has been claimed.
According to Metro, the mum-of-two was reportedly spotted on at least six occasions at the Maidstone clinic close to her home in Wrotham, Kent, where she was found dead last month. The newspaper quoted a source who said they had befriended the 25-year-old at the facility and revealed that husband Tom Cohen had been completely unaware of her drug use.
“She used to wear a hoodie to disguise herself. The first time I saw her I thought I recognised her and we just chatted about a few things. I recognise you from somewhere” and she told me her name was Peaches. That was when it clicked — Peaches Geldof. She said “You’d better not say anything to anybody”. She didn’t want her husband finding out. She said he was completely straight and that Dad would go spare if he knew anything about it,” they said.
An inquest this week found that heroin was a ‘likely’ contributor to Peaches’ death. It’s understood that she had been attending the clinic to collect a prescription for methadone, which is used to treat recovering addicts.
“She said she didn’t want her family or her husband to know about the drugs and it was top secret. She used to arrive on her own. She was on a script (prescription) and had to turn up weekly. She was most concerned about her husband. She said, “You won’t believe it he’s a really straight family man. I married a really straight, really nice bloke. He won’t understand, it would affect my kids. She seemed like a really normal girl.”
