Thank you Jelly Bean! Great topic, fascinating family.I amended the new thread title to include the whole family.
Anyway - carry on!
All of Peaches‘ socials got deleted immediately after her death except a Facebook-account called „Melody Nelson“, which seemingly is online still.What have I missed about Melody Nelson? I tried searching the last thread..

Wow great post. Totally agree she could be Michael’s daughter! Tiger is a carbon copy of younger Pixie in the attached link. Pixie looks nothing like Peaches or Fifi.I would bet money pixie is biologically, Michael’s daughter.
as for Paula lording that over Bob, there are several reasons why she might not/could not have done that.
legally, a man has no legal claim or responsibility to a child unless he is married to the mother (yep, really) or has been specifically named on the birth certificate. In legal terms, it’s called “parental responsibility”. It can be applied for at a later date of course, but that gets complicated and I’m not sure how accessible dna tests were in the 90s.
1. So Legally, Bob is Pixies father. And it goes without saying he has raised her.
2. Assuming Paula had an affair with someone else, they aren’t named on the birth certificate so wouldn’t have been under any legal responsibility to provide for Pixie.
3. it’s possible Paula wasn’t sure herself.
Hurchence’s manager spoke about how Paula stalked him and that she’d hooked up with him long before the Big Breakfast interview. They first met in 1985 apparently.
if we look back on the time that Pixie was conceived, it would’ve been December 1989. At that time, Band Aid II was being recorded in London and Kylie Minogue participated.
Kylie had just finished her first global concert tour, which took place in October of that same year. Infamously, she met Michael Hutchence during this tour and dumped Jason Donovan pretty much straight away.
so it’s very plausible that MH could have accompanied Kylie to London (they were already making public appearances together by then, and attended a premier for The Delinquents in December 1989) in their early days of being a couple, had a hook up with Paula but ultimately chose to stay with Kylie. He certainly had form for letting relationships overlap!

Michael Hutchence had women across the world swooning over his good looks and charm.www.dailymail.co.uk
Helena was supposedly the love of his life, but because of his brain injury he had started to become depressed and was prescribed Prozac for the first time in 1995 - I’ve always thought that his relationship with Helena started breaking down as a result of his injury and mental state, and he gave in to long-standing side chick Paula whilst vulnerable and probably pretty heartbroken.
for me, it’s almost certain that Hutchence fathered Pixie. The resemblance is uncanny and she’s almost identical facially (albeit her colouring is slightly different) to Tigerlily - and neither of them resemble Paula. I’m surprised not more is made of it but then I guess it’s very personal. I always assumed that’s why Paula spoke more warmly about Pixie, than she ever did about Fifi or Peaches.
it’s another sad, ironic twist in this family’s story if you ask me.
Peaches died of an overdose, like her mother.
Pixie is likely to be aware of rumours that her biological father isn’t the man who raised her - something that also devastated Paula.

peaches definitely seemed to be a Paul mini me.I see the resemblance between pixie and tiger lily but idk I do think she looks like Bob also. I like pixie though She’s very private she said the same group of friends for years that’s very telling.
I don't think it's anything to do with her parents saga. Her boyfriend is Nick Allbrook, he's an Australian musician.I always thought it was pretty telling that, despite being brought up by Bob in the U.K., tiger ultimately chose to move to Australia and live her life there. She doesn’t seem to have any of the propensity to drama that Bob-Paula-Peaches had going on.
Yeah exactly!! I do wonder if things would be different if peaches wasn’t gone but doubtful m. Her husbands the same v v private and I can’t fault them. It’s refreshing to see somebody famous so private. She shares what she wants the public to see. I know pixie isn’t an A list celeb but there’s public interest.peaches definitely seemed to be a Paul mini me.
fifi, being the eldest, seemed to have bourne the brunt of being exposed to a lot of Paulas erratic behaviour and distanced herself when she was still pretty young.
Peaches always seemed to idolise her mum and took after her in looks, temperament and how she played out her life in many ways (chasing after men, egocentric, drug addiction, manipulative)
pixie definitely seems like a very different character. Their approach to motherhood and their private life is vastly different - Peaches was happy to do photo shoots and court Public attention for her wedding, with her children and used to write a column detailing private things from her health to family holidays.
by contrast, pixie seems a lot more grounded. Other than being involved with a man in his 30s when she was a teen, her love life at face value seems a lot more stable than Peaches. And she’s much, much more private. She’s never publicly confirmed when her daughter was born or her name. She seems to keep a small, close circle and has been with her husband a long time now.

pixie was pretty high profile in the sense that she started modelling, partying in Camden, made a go of a music career and she got all of the tabloid attention that comes with that. I don’t remember her ever specifically courting it though? Whenever she seemed to make a comment on something it usually seemed to be to promote environmental issues she supported etc.Can’t remember if Pixie was as private before Peaches‘ death? Or was it some kind of reaction? As a teenager she clearly wasn’t.
I’ve always said Pixie is Michaels, in a documentary after his death Paula says Michael was upset he couldn’t have his daughters in Australia with him, you can see her realise she’s spilt the beans and she tries to backtrack. Pixie is the double of Hutchence.I would bet money pixie is biologically, Michael’s daughter.
