They did seem to go on drug binges together but Gerry inferred in the book that the Rohypnol Paula was taking was to numb her during ‘eccentric sex acts’. It’s entirely speculation though. But female porn actors often take drugs to deal with the physical or emotional pain of some extreme acts - I’m not even sure some men realise how much pain and long term damage can be caused.I interpreted that differently from that Gerry Agar book. I took the implication being that she got into drugs more to share that with him, and also due to the stress of the whole situation and him having other partners. Could be wrong of course!
No bother lovely. Here's the strong stuff quoted from CDAN, was Peaches actually killed? Take as you will!Sorry . I didn't mean to sound like a twit and I'm sorry for what you have been through. Enjoy your brew and dunk xx
I’ve seen that blind item before - hard to believe but entirely possible!No bother lovely. Here's the strong stuff quoted from CDAN, was Peaches actually killed? Take as you will!
And I am not letting the Scientology weirdo's get away with any nonsense (they helped set Jim Carrey up with those stories about his itchy bits it seems!) and I'm rather into the Big Willy situation at the moment (Scientology weirdo's) so I'll be back on that all in good time.
68. ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 10/04 **#16**
He Killed Her: Apparently, he confessed. He got drunk and confessed. He did so to the sister of the woman he killed who he was also sleeping with. He says he killed her because she was going to leave him and take the kids. So, since she already had issues with drugs, he just gave her a little more while she was already passed out and she never woke up. Apparently the sister is not the first person he confessed to. He also confessed to a celebrity ex-girlfriend who is an ex-girlfriend because he told her. She thought she was the only one sleeping with him while he was married, but he was also sleeping with his wife and his sister-in-law. At this point, the whole family knows, and has known for almost two years that he did it. That he killed this celebrity. So far though, the family is willing to sweep it under the rug for the sake of the kids. They had already come to terms with the death and even though he was the one who added the extra to kill her, they have convinced themselves she would have ended up dead anyway. There is so much drug death in that family.
Killer: Thomas Cohen
Woman he killed: Peaches Geldof
Sister: Tigerlily or Pixie Geldof
Celebrity ex-girlfriend: Daisy Lowe
It weirdly does seem possible doesn't it! I also came aross the strangest old thread of weirdness that highlighted all the connections of another hero of mine had with the fam, Nick Cave. He was Peaches Godfather. It's one of those long and rambling threads involving a lot of conspiracy talk but I do wonder if there aren't a few truth hidden in there. https://alternaticity.boards.net/thread/19/strange-twisted-world-peaches-geldofI’ve seen that blind item before - hard to believe but entirely possible!
It’s off topic but the Scientology link to Jim Carey and the media coverage about his ex girlfriend/STDs is fascinating - please tell me more!
Wow, I remember seeing that link about Peaches a few years ago - a dark rabbit hole to explore. Thank you, I will have a re-read.It weirdly does seem possible doesn't it!

I am packing sandwiches and preparing a deeeeeep old dive on the scientology but currently it stands that she lied about the std's that's proven, she and family are scientologists and those weirdo's love putting out fake info and working peoples weaknesses, I shall return once the snow has ceased and have more than tenuous, but very possible, suspicions!

I actually liked her persona more before I read the book - she comes across as very manipulative and self-interested in the book, weaving lies throughout the years to benefit herself. She was clearly capable of being very charming and lovely but it’s hard to know how much of it was genuine. Even her desire to be a good mother to compensate for the mistakes of her childhood seemed to be a facade because her nanny was the real mother figure in the family and seemingly worked very hard to create a ‘perfect family’.Question for those who have read Gerry Agar's book, did Paula come across as having a nice side to her?
I could never warm to her, albeit I only saw the media image.
Thank god for the nanny, seems to have been a sensible woman who went over and above the job description. It seemed from what I've read that she genuinely cared about the girls and kept in touch with them.I actually liked her persona more before I read the book - she comes across as very manipulative and self-interested in the book, weaving lies throughout the years to benefit herself.

The fallout of her marriage with Bob and her relationship with Michael seemed to bring out the worst in her though. And who knows how much of Gerry’s account is truthful - she must’ve had an axe to bear after being frozen out of the inner circle.
Ultimately I feel sorry for Paula though - she had a difficult childhood and probably an undiagnosed personality disorder or mental health condition.
I’ve read the Agar book and I didn’t like Paula at all, however I also think Agar had a bit of an axe to grind, for whatever reason. I really did enjoy that book though. It’s the one of the best celeb exposes out there.Question for those who have read Gerry Agar's book, did Paula come across as having a nice side to her? What's the best compliment you could pay her after reading the book?
I could never warm to her, albeit I only saw the media image which I believed fake, and read about the problems with drugs, toxic behaviour etc.
Oops I mixed up ‘axe to grind’ and ‘grudge to bear’I’ve read the Agar book and I didn’t like Paula at all, however I also think Agar had a bit of an axe to grind, for whatever reason. I really did enjoy that book though. It’s the one of the best celeb exposes out there.
I’ve also read the autobiography that Paula herself wrote and I really liked her in that. She came across as someone who was very self deprecating and could take the piss out herself. However, I never really warmed to her public persona, but looking back at her tv career, she was a brilliant presenter and interviewer. There was just something about her that rubbed people (i.e the audience and the public) up the wrong way. She was one of those women (like Sadie Frost and Pearl Lowe and probably in a sense, Katie Price) who can’t cope without a man. They always seem to move from one relationship to the next without any breathing space in between.
FWIW, I think MH and Paula wouldn’t have gone the distance. She used getting pregnant with Tiger as a way to keep him tied to her, probably like she did with Bob, but Hutchence was a grown man who could have prevented that if he’d really wanted to. I also think that Paula got the crappy end of the stick when the relationship was revealed, even though Hutchence was equally to blame (I mean, he was shagging his mates wife and had a girlfriend himself!). The way the press vilified her was pure misogyny, but part of that was because she wasn’t popular with the public.
Yes, it's quite surreal as its ends just as she got with Michael, as you say with no real detail but both extremely happy. Within a couple of years, they were both dead. I only read it quite recently but it's quite a funny feeling to think as she wrote that last sentence she had no idea her world was about to come crumbling down.Yes, Paula’s own book doesn’t go into much detail about her relationship with MH or BG for that matter as I recall, but it’s been years since I read it. There’s quite a bit of stuff on her childhood though which is interesting.
I also think I agree that Paula would have ended her life one way or the other, especially if MH moved on to someone else. I think they were absolutely terrible for each other and I also think if they’d never met, they’d probably both still be alive today. With a different partner, Hutchence might have got the help he needed and Paula might have found someone who loved her properly, rather than launching herself at men who weren’t arsed either way. She really needed therapy to unravel those unhealthy patterns. I think she had incredibly low self esteem but thought if she could get these ‘high status’ men, then that would solve her problems and make her worthy somehow. It’s a shame, because she was a quirky, talented and funny woman in her own right.
