“Everyone wants to make the boys part of a solid family unit. They were all up in London recently. It was really good to see their smiles. Astala looks like him mum with his blonde hair and Phaedra is a sweet baby.

“Thomas looked a lot less hunched up than he did when Peaches first died. Tom’s family are doing fine and the sister’s are great. There’s a lot of sitting around watching TV shows like In The Night Garden – things Peaches would do.”
