Peaches Geldof sadly passed away at the tender age of 25 but, while many have called it a tragedy, Luisa Zissman has slammed the young mother-of-two for her "disgraceful" behaviour.

"It’s unacceptable on every level imaginable"

Speaking in her Daily Star column, the former Celebrity Big Brother housemate said:

"I know to speak ill of the defenceless dead is a sensitive subject, but no one has come out to say that, if the reports are correct, shooting up in front of your kids to the point of (suspected) overdose is possibly one of the most selfish things a mother or father, in fact any relative, can do.

"For someone whose mother died in exactly the same way she should have known better, first-hand she experienced how it took Paula Yates away from her," she added.

Peaches Geldof was a devoted mother to her two children

"I can’t be the only one thinking that yes, it’s terribly sad but also it's disgraceful."

"I'm confused as to why no one has stood up and said, 'this is wrong', it’s unacceptable on every level imaginable," she then added.

Luisa is not the first to take this stance on Peaches' death; Katie Hopkins similarly tweeted last week: "If Peaches was a mother on benefits living on a council estate, would you all still be wearing your 'right on' badge with such pride."

Peaches was found dead at her Kent home on 7th April; the coroner's report reveals it is "likely" that heroin played a part in her death.
