Peaches Geldof reportedly stopped breathing after an alleged drugs overdose.
Peaches Geldof stopped breathing after drugs overdose?
The 19-year-old - whose mother Paula Yates died of a heroin overdose in 2000
- was given mouth-to-mouth resuscitation by a friend before paramedics
arrived to her London home
The TV presenter, the daughter of musician-and-activist Bob Geldof, was
brought back to consciousness but refused to go to hospital because she was
terrified her father would out.
A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Peaches could not breathe for
several minutes after suffering a respiratory arrest. Her friend had to give
chest pumps and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
"If she had not received this she could have died or she could have suffered
brain damage. Peaches had gone into respiratory arrest, in which a patient's
breathing stops but the heart doesn't.
"It was extremely serious and there is no doubt her friend saved her life."
Another source added: "No one could believe this has happened to Bob
Geldof's daughter, particularly considering what happened to her mother."
Peaches - who is dating singer Faris Badwan from The Horrors - is believed
to have got angry with the medical team who helped her.
The source added: "When she came to she started mouthing off and told the
ambulance crew, 'You have to respect my privacy.' She then told them to get
out.
"And she refused to go to hospital to have further treatment because she was
worried about it getting out."
