My Take

Peaches Geldof is impossible to write about without feeling the ache of what was lost. Daughter of Bob Geldof, raised in London, she moved to New York and was writing for Elle Girl as a teenager, racing through journalism, presenting, and modeling with a precocity that was dazzling and a little reckless. Her life held bright public light and very private shadow, and her death in 2014 at just 25 still feels like a wound. I won't reduce her to a cautionary tale; she was sharp, searching, and genuinely talented. What lingers for me is empathy, and a quiet wish that she'd had more time.

Overview

Peaches Honeyblossom Geldof (13 March 1989 – 7 April 2014) was an English columnist, television personality, and model. Born and raised in London, Geldof was educated at Queen's College after her parents' divorce in 1996, and later moved to New York City, where she worked as a writer for the UK edition of Elle Girl magazine.
