In the interview, Peaches said: ‘Your life, they keep telling you, is pre-ordained: "I'm going to die like my mother, she's going to end up like her mother.’

In her first and only magazine column, published the week of her death, Peaches had written she was the ‘happiest’ she had ever been.

Following the birth of her two sons, Phaedra and Astala, Peaches had shed her wild child image and become more homely, setting up home in the Kent countryside with her husband, musician Thomas Cohen.

Peaches was found dead in her home in April by her husband, and her shock death sent ripples through the celebrity circuit.

The 25-year-old was buried at the same church where she got married in 2012. It was also the same church where she said goodbye to her mother Paula Yates in 2000. Paula died of a drugs overdose when Peaches was just 10 years old.

Following a post mortem, it was discovered that Peaches had heroin in her system, and that drugs were a ‘likely’ contributing factor to her death.

The couple shared a keen passion for vintage clothes and it was their dream to open a shop together.
