Peaches Geldof tragically died in 2014, aged 25.

The mother of two left her family devastated when she died of an overdose in her home.

While Peaches’ father Bob Geldof has been very vocal about his daughter’s death, the rest of the family have understandably, grieving for their loss of Peaches.

Peaches’ sister, Pixie has spoken to The Guardian about how she has recovered since her sister’s death, going through the process of grieving all while under the spotlight of media attention.

Pixie said it was her friends helping her and staying with her every day that helped her overcome the sadness she felt.

Radio DJ and former X Factor judge Nick Grimshaw is said to have kept her going with pizza and episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians before her sister’s funeral.

She also appreciated having her female friends to distract her who were “talking about nonsense. I live for annoying girl chat.”

When asked how she feels now since Peaches’ death she said

“I am… OK. There’s no recovery from it. There’s no therapy for it. I mean, there’s no one day when it won’t be bad.”

Pixie also revealed a song, Twin Thing on her new album is about her sister Peaches.
