‘Wedding sprogs and dogs’ Get a glimpse into Fifi Geldof’s wedding

Sep 5, 2016

Sir Bob Geldof's eldest daughter, Fifi, got married to her long term beau over the weekend in a very special ceremony.

The happy couple made the decision to wed in the same church where the bride's late mother and sister are buried.

Fifi has not had an easy life, loosing her mother Paula Yates to a heroin overdose in 2000.

Peaches Geldof, the sister of the bride, also passed away in 2014 from a drug overdose.

However, this weekend was a glimmer of happiness for the young PR executive, as she married the love of her life, Andrew Robertson, in an intimate ceremony.

Fifi has since taken to social media, to share a number of snaps from the otherwise private affair.

The venue for the wedding, which is located next door to Bob Geldof's country home, is the same place that Peaches Geldof and Paula Yates are buried.

Fifi shared a heartwarming picture of her flower girls, which she captioned "wedding sprogs and dogs".

The blushing bride also shared a picture of herself and her "friend and master" Gary Cockerill, who did her make-up for the big day.

Many famous faces were in attendance, including former Made in Chelsea star Ashley James, and the widower of Peaches, musician Thomas Cohen.

Thomas Cohen also brought his two sons with him, who are Fifi's only nephews.

Jasper Conron, who is Fifi's Godfather, designed the bride a beautiful white lace dress, equipped with a full length veil.

Jasper had previously designed Paula Yates' famous red wedding dress, from her marriage to Bob Geldof in 1986.

Fifi's marriage comes just one year after her father wed his actress girlfriend of 18 years, Jeanne Marine.

We wish the newlyweds a lifetime of happiness!

Fifi Geldof shares touching tribute on anniversary of Peaches’ death

It has been exactly one year since Bob Geldof's daughter Peaches was tragically found dead at her home in Kent, England.

The 25-year-old's body was discovered by her husband Tom Cohen, with whom she had two young children, 3-year-old Astala and 2-year-old Phaedra.

This morning Peaches' older sister Fifi shared a bittersweet tribute to her late sister on the anniversary of her death, posting a throwback picture of herself and Peaches as children:

Fifi captioned the sweet picture, "A year ago today and I miss you with all my being."

An inquest into Peaches death last July showed that she had died from a heroin overdose. Peaches had reportedly been clean for three years and had been using methadone, but she began using heroin again in secret in early 2014.

A police search of the home she shared with her husband Tom revealed a significant quantity of the drug plus almost 80 syringes.

It's thought Peaches kept her relapse hidden from Tom and her family, and that she had hoped to overcome her struggle again.

"There is no indication that Peaches intended to take her own life or harm herself in any way as she was reported to be of happy disposition and planning for the future with friends and family," the inquest said at the time.

Fifi Geldof opens up about depression since Peaches’ death

Fifi Geldof has spoken out about her battle with depression, which she says has hit her "full whack" since her sister Peaches died from a heroin overdose back in April.

The 31-year-old took to Instagram last night to talk about her struggle. "You can’t escape it, it just simmers under the surface," she said. "People wouldn’t have the first clue of it to look at me or talk to me, though."

PR executive Fifi said she has become good at hiding her true feelings from others. "I wear a permanent mask so I won’t be judged for feeling how I actually feel."

Though she has suffered from depression for a number of years, Fifi’s condition has understandably worsened since the death of her sister. However, it was Robin William’s recent suicide that prompted Fifi to open up to her fans.

Alongside a picture of Robin, Fifi wrote, “Depression needs to be taken more seriously. No-one should feel pushed to those actions by their all-encompassing misery.”

She later explained why she had spoken out, saying her posts were “a feeble attempt to bring some more awareness and understanding to something that oughtn't be surrounded by such stigma.”

Fifi Geldof has announced on Instagram that she’s engaged to her 33-year-old boyfriend, Andrew Robertson.

Fifi isn’t the only one in the Geldof family to be getting married, as her father Bob Geldof revealed recently that he also plans on walking down the aisle, with his long term girlfriend, Jeanne Marine.

The 33-year-old posted a picture of her engagement ring on Instagram and captioned the shot: “The ring #boydonegood.”

The good news is a welcome relief for the Geldof family, after last week’s inquest revealed that Peaches Geldof died tragically as a result of taking heroin.

We are glad to see Fifi and the Geldof family celebrate this happy news, after the difficult time they’ve had recently.
