Peaches Geldof’s death has been ruled ‘unexplained’ up until now. The police said no hard drugs were found in the house, whilst others speculated that perhaps her diet was to blame. Well, it looks like the truth is out..

It’s the same thing that killed her mother and the same thing that killed Philip Seymour Hoffman – a heroin overdose.

This, from the Independent:

PEACHES Geldof died from a heroin overdose, it has been reported.

Toxicology tests will show later today that the mother-of-two died from a heroin overdose, The Times of London has reported.

The TV star and mother of two was found dead at her country home last month with police describing her death as ‘non-suspicious’.

A post-mortem examination carried out at Darent Valley Hospital in Dartford proved inconclusive, prompting further investigations.

Samples of her blood and tissue were sent off to a laboratory for toxicology tests.

A 10-minute hearing is expected to take place today.
