Peaches Geldof, 22, is knocked up by her fey fiancé Thomas Cohen

In December, Peaches Geldof announced her engagement to Thomas Cohen, her fey boyfriend of less than a year. Cohen is… odd. Like, he wears pleated culottes and belly shirts and he looks anemic and heroin-y. I wouldn’t have thought that he was capable of simply having an erection, nor of completing the act of “love” with a lady, but it looks like he did, because Peaches Geldof is pregnant. I feel like… she’s just like her mother, Paula Yates. Peaches is only 22 years old. And Cohen will be her second husband. Wild. Child.

Peaches Geldof is pregnant with her first child. The model and television presenter is expecting a baby with rocker fiancé Thomas Cohen.

Her spokeswoman said: ‘Peaches Geldof and her fiance Thomas Cohen are delighted to announce that Peaches is pregnant with their first child. Peaches is utterly thrilled and they have the full support of both of their families who are equally excited for the baby’s arrival.’

Peaches met Cohen four years ago and they announced their engagement on December 11. She was previously married to musician Max Drummey and they tied the knot in secret in a drive-in ceremony in Las Vegas after a 10-day romance.

But their union ended in divorce after just six months in 2009 and she recently insisted she was in no rush to tie the knot with Cohen just yet.

She said: ‘We first met four years ago and we bumped into each other last Christmas (2009) on Portobello Road in Notting Hill, London, and started dating again – and that’s also where he asked me. It was romantic. I’m really happy. But we don’t want to get married for a couple of years yet.’

Peaches also tweeted that Thomas gave her a Golden Retriever puppy for Christmas, so that makes TWO helpless creatures that are now depending on Peaches for sustenance. While my disaster-radar is definitely up, I’ll just say for now that I hope Peaches is clean and sober and I hope she has a healthy and happy pregnancy, free of complications. I hope Thomas sticks by her, and I hope the puppy gets fed and walked regularly.

    i really hope the best for every one

  2. It is ME!! says:

    She’s a model? Like how Paris Hilton is a “model”? That word must have lost its original meaning…..

    And her fiance just looks dirty….

  3. Maya says:

    Some people shouldn’t be reproducing. Unfortunately, Peaches is one of them.

    • Lucy says:

      Maya, you took the words right out of my mouth. It’s sickening to think about.

    • cmc says:

      I remember thinking the same thing about Nicole Richie. Fortunately, she proved everyone wrong. I hope for the same from her.

      • Maya says:

        But that’s Nicole Ritchie. And do you think that she doesn’t have a nanny in her employ?
        Sorry, but I don’t see the justification for these people using babies as some type of therapeutic device for their addictions and afflictions.

    • Trek Girl says:

      Sometimes children are exactly what people need to help themselves turn their lives around.

      Having a brand-new human being that needs you is something that can change a persons life for the better. There are many people who were drug addicts, alcoholics, abused, and were down in the gutter thinking that that was all that their life was going to be, until they had children.

      This might not be the case for Peaches, but I wouldn’t be surprised if having a child or children is exactly what she needs to kick some of those bad behaviours. Lets hope this is a good thing for her, her fiance, and the baby.

      • Maya says:

        I don’t mean to offend you or anything like that, so don’t take what I say as offensive.
        A child or a ‘new life’ should not be used as a remedial measure for an ex drug addict or alcoholic or party person. Sure there are examples like Nicole Ritchie (but there are also examples like Britney Spears) but let’s not also forget that these wealthy people have nannies in their employ and they don’t shoulder all the work that is required.
        The first few years of a child’s life are very important to its future as an individual. If the social-emotional bonds between a mother and child are impeded during the first two years, then there is a lot of work that has to be done at a later date and it seems to me that Peaches is yet to come to terms with herself.

  4. mln76 says:

    Didn’t her mother commit suicide? Hopefully she isn’t ‘just like her’ and is able to overcome the self-destructive patterns. But jeez what a mess.

    • Tapioca says:

      Paula Yates died of a heroin overdose; Peaches has been known to use heroin. Either this is going to end tragically, or a fiance and baby may be just the thing to turn her into a responsible adult – although the latter is more in hope than expectation.

      Fingers crossed for the helpless little munchkin!

  5. GoodCapon says:

    Oh dear…

  6. waldemar says:

    I thought her mother died of a drug overdose (cocaine?) that is the whole irony in this.

    And Peaches just lost all that weight to re-launch her “model” career. Guess that has to wait.

    • Ruby Red Lips says:

      Her mother died of an ‘accidental’ heroin overdose

      All I can say is oh dear…a baby doesnt fix ur life or cure your addictions especially at the tender age of 22. Let just hope the baby is ok

    • mln76 says:

      maybe I’m thinking of another wife of Geldof who had a child with Michael Hutchins? Or possibly I’m confusing drug overdosing w/ suicide? Really tragic.

      • Jen34 says:

        Paula o’d on heroin. She left Geldof for Hutchence and had a baby with him. Geldof sued Yates and won custody of his 3 kids after he learned of her drug use. He also adopted Hutchence’s child after Paula o’d. He felt she should be with her sisters.

      • mln76 says:

        Thanks for the info. It’s really sad. Tragically it reminds me of stories you hear about families living in poverty in the Ghetto.

    • Kelly says:

      Tranquilizers and booze, I think. Paula was also married to Michael Hutchence of INXS, who also committed suicide, a few years before she did… so sad.

  7. Camille says:

    I don’t know who are these people but they look dirty.

  8. reeda redneck says:

    everytime I see a picture of this person, I feel the urge to sprinkle lice powder all over her. she comes off as a dirty skank. of course she may actually be a wonderful person

  9. madpoe says:

    and her response when the doctor confirms her pregancy: “so like no more heroin, right?”

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      She could just take methadone the entire pregnancy instead like that paragon of motherhood Anna Nicole Smith.

      • Bodhi says:

        I wonder if her daughter has any long term issues stemming from that

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @Bodi, I was wondering the same thing. I know she had surgery for strabismus. I’m unsure if that could be attributed to drug use during pregnancy in any way. I saw a recent picture of her and Larry Birkhead and she looks happy and healthy. I’m glad he’s keeping her out of the public eye.

  10. TheOriginalKitten says:

    Are we 100% certain that they’re NOT related to each other? Why would you want to date someone that looks EXACTLY like you is my question.

  11. Cathy says:

    Who is she, and just what is she famous for? He looks nasty, I wouldn’t boink him if he had a ten foot prick.

  12. Delta Juliet says:

    That poor, poor baby

  13. Kelly says:

    I hate to say it, but I looooove her outfit in the first picture -the dress is great (I love a babydoll with a little collar) and the shoes are fabulous. The other outfits are ok – her body looks good in the second pic – but she looks absolutely ghastly in the last pic.

    Other than that fashion review, I think her life must be totally chaotic. Hard to believe she’s only 22…

  14. Alicia says:

    Is it just me that feels her veneers look terrible and don’t fit in her mouth properly??

    Other than her teeth, the rest of her looks great in that black dress.

    • marina says:

      Agreed. Though I doubt it’s only the veneers. In desperate need of braces?

      Yuck on all accounts.

  15. Syko says:

    Exactly the sort of people who should be reproducing. *barf* Too bad when Dad was out there saving the world, he didn’t do a better job of raising his own daughter. She’s a mess.

  16. amble63 says:

    He looks like her dad. Eww, daddy issues!

  17. lolworthy says:

    He looks harmless. I like that actually. Also, just how many women has Bob Geldoff been married to who have either committed suicide or have accidentally overdosed? Coincidence?

  18. Zelda says:

    I don’t think he’s fey– just UBER-hipstery.

    Now for some reason, I am cheering for this little disaster. I have no idea why. But everyone has to pick a hot mess to root for. Some people have their Lohans, I’ll take Peaches.

    I’ll root for her. I’ll root for this crazy whore.

  19. for real? says:

    I hope the puppy gets fed and walked regularly…. lmao ( me too)

  20. Adrien says:

    This guy is channeling Nick Cave. Whatevs. Hope the kid turns out OK.

  21. Courtney says:

    idiots you can’t always plan when your going to have a kid Live Aid was in July of 1985 and Peaches was born March 16th 1989 her older sister Fifi Trixiebelle was born 2 years before live Aid March 31st 1983 & her younger sister Pixie was born September 10th 1991 and her half sister Tigerlily was born July 21st 1996 who was 16 months old when her father Inxs Frontman Michael Hutchence died in November of 1997 then Orphaned when their mother paula yates died on Pixie’s 10th Birthday September 10th 2001. having a child at her age is nothing to be up in arms about it’s not like she’s a teenager

    • Ruby Red Lips says:

      But she is known to do hardcore drugs…great qualities for a mum to be no matter her age

      Sad day when people who don’t support a drug taking party girl to be a mother get called idiots…

      • Sasha says:

        Exactly. Peaches is a hardcore party girl and has a TON of growing up to do. Best case scenario in this situation is that the baby does actually change her and she completely fades from the spotlight. The more likely scenario is the baby ends up neglected and the dog runs away.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      Her being age 22 is the LEAST of her problems. But thanks for the unsolicited Peaches bio-I’ll file that under “Who Gives a Shit” in the deep recess of my brain.

    • fabgrrl says:

      Please, please, please start using punctuation. I got a headache trying to read your post.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @fabgrrl, that and beginning every post with name calling, drives me bonkers. On the plus side, she did manage to go a whole post without mentioning Joanne Woodward or Paul Newman.

      • Franny says:

        I wish there was a like button so I could like your comment Morticians. I’m always waiting for Courtney to pop up and tell us the most random things in run on sentances.

    • the original bellaluna says:

      Jeebus, those names! Were they high, or did they think they were naming puppies?

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @Franny, me too! My day isn’t complete unless I learn a new fact about Paul Newman and get my daily dose of “shut the hell up” from Courtney 😉

    • Gaia132 says:

      Meh, Peaches was too stupid to use birth control. If one takes birth control correctly there will be no “accidents”.

  22. Enny says:

    Girl, I know your name is Peaches and all, but that peach blush is doing you absolutely no favors.

  23. Spugz says:

    ^^^^ eh? what’s that about? Why are you listing geldof/yates kids birthdays?

    Anyways – I hate to say it but I think she looks better skinny. She’s not pretty bless ehr but skinny suits her. Surprised she weighs enough to get knocked up though.

  24. MerryHappy says:

    Totally agree that he’s just a dandy hipster. As for everything else… No comment

  25. Franny says:

    Its interesting to see how vastly different people can turn out. Just yesterday we had that story about Frances and her nice boyfriend. Even though they both come from crazy crazy families, one is leading a fairly simple and clean life with a boyfriend who adores her…and then there’s this one.

  26. WOM says:

    A couple of things:

    – is that even Peaches in the second and third photo. She looks drastically different.

    – how is she affording this lifestyle? Her writing career failed, she lost her modelling contract. Obviously for all Bob Geldof’s tough talk & threats, he’s financially supporting her and her drug dealers.

    – I hope she names the baby Credenza. Or Ottoman. Or Hotpot. Just something totally random and crazy. It can be Exhibit A in the Crown’s case to extinguish her parental rights.

    • Kelly says:

      Credenza, LOL. Or, in keeping with her family tradition, how about FairySue or Dandelion Milkweed (don’t laugh – I knew a girl named Dandelion. I live in a hippie town) or Daffodil Rainbow Damson Plum (Daffy for short).

  27. EUanon says:

    No words, man. And no words that come to her vacant mind, she’s not even functional at speaking level, re. scientology

  28. Bodhi says:

    This will not end well

    • Iggles says:

      Yep. She’s a druggie so he probably is using too. Plus he’s very fey looking. He’s going to cheat on her with boys and girls..

  29. Vanden says:

    Better keep off the drugs then shouldn’t she? who thinks she will though, show of hands?

    seriously though Peaches, you won’t find a better reason to sort yourself out

  30. whatevs says:

    SHE is 22?!?? holy crap!!! i guess the girls who said under the queen links thread that mischa and such girls aged prematurely because of drugs were right. omfg i wouldn’t have believed her age if i read it elsewhere.

  31. Violet says:

    Her dad must be freaking out. What a trainwreck, I just hope she stays off the drugs and starts eating properly.

  32. Ari says:

    What a dummy. Losing all that weight just to get fat again. CONTRACEPTIVES are our friend.

  33. the original bellaluna says:

    This could be a disaster. I hope she quit the bad sh!t when she found out she was pregnant. And I hope she stays off of it.

    Good luck, Peaches’ little baby (and puppy). You’re gonna need it.

  34. Camille says:

    That poor puppy/baby. I wish the two of them the best.

  35. pink elephant says:

    Peaches is birthing something (other than an eight ball and an unearned sense of accomplishment)? I’m not sure if I’m disgusted or just shocked that she still menstruates.

  36. barb333 says:

    This is totally mean but my God, look at his feet!!!!!!! They are huge!!!

  37. Jennifer12 says:

    Oh, GOD, someone please save that child and puppy. I wouldn’t trust these two to look after my goldfish.

  38. Ana says:

    Lady Gaga is pregnant!!!??? :O

    Hahhaha

    Wow, he looks high in all those pictures!

  39. ILLNana says:

    i think her boy is super hot and lanky and skinny and i really like it. yum!

  40. Vera says:

    I can’t help but find it a little amusing that I have absolutely no problem believing Peaches is pregnant, yet Beyonce…I still have doubt. It’s really a coin toss for me on Beyonce.

    But anyways, Peaches…wow. I must say, even though she is basically the UK’s Lindsay Lohan, I think I like Peaches better. Even if it is not by much and I loathed when she dated Eli Roth (I though so much less of him for dating her), she still has her merits. I can’t think of any and I’m pretty sure she’s been fired just as much as Linsday, but I think I like that the US and Canada isn’t bombarded with Peaches drama as much as Lindsay or Beyonce drama.

    I really do hope she cleans up, though. Like, I know she is supposedly supposed to be clean and that her weight loss is due to a new diet or something, but she is young (HA! older than me…) and she has access to stuff and it could all end really badly. But I think she’s smart enough (pfffft) to not mess the baby up while pregnant. She may not be the ideal choice of mother by far, but she doesn’t seem like she’d put a child at risk. I hope she pulls a Nicole Ritchie and amazes everyone with a decent job at parenting.

  41. laura says:

    they’re obviously attracted to each others’ similarly extreme jaws. He doesn’t read gay to me, but metro-euro-hipster. unfortunately that’s a thing!
