Peaches Geldof's Final Interview: Her Sons, Her Hopes For The Future

It's still so, so, sad.

Peaches Geldof’s final interview was published today, in which she spoke movingly about her hopes for the future, and love she had for her sons.

The interview - published in The Sunday Times and Aga Living magazine - was done just weeks before she died, making her statements even more heart-breaking to read.

The former TV-presenter, model and writer spoke about her own mother’s passing, revealing that she was still to make peace with her own tumultuous childhood and – somewhat poignantly - recognised the similarities she had with her mother, Paula Yates.

Peaches said she felt her TV presenter mother was: 'living through me all the time, because we are just so similar'.

'There are so many parallels between us. Now I can understand everything. I think you have to experience hardships and pain yourself to fully understand people who have been through it and also you can never really experience happiness unless you've had that down feeling too.'

The 25-year old was found dead at her home on Monday, with one of her sons by her side.
In the interview, she went on to speak about the hopes and dreams she held for her own children, 11-month old Phaedra and 23-month old Astala.

A believer in ‘attachment parenting’, Peaches described her parenting techniques, and how becoming a mum had helped her deal with her own traumatic childhood and changed her for the better:

'The way I've been raising them is with pure love. I just have a lot of hopes for them, and I hope when they're older they get to have a bit of the youth that I lost out on when I had them. Now I am a mum, I can correct those awful parts of my childhood and it's a really healing process.

'Before, I was not at peace with myself about it because I was just traumatised. That's why I was living a chaotic lifestyle. But now I have the kids I can heal the situation. It's so good in every single way, really.'

The Sunday Mirror reported today that the socialite’s ashes were to be scattered in the same place as her mother’s, at Davington Priory in Kent – a place where Peaches spent much of her childhood.
