Like mother, like son: Peaches Geldof takes selfie with sick baby Phaedra after sleepless night looking after him


Peaches Geldof has been sharing pictures of her family life on Instagram, with youngest son Phaedra taking centre stage.

The eight month old, whom the star has nick-named ‘Wid Wid’, was pictured crawling around the family home naked with an simply sweet smile.

But it wasn't the best morning for the star, who had been up all night looking after her son who was suffering from a nasty cold.

The baby, whose full name is Phaedra Bloom Forever Cohen, is the younger brother of 20-month-old Astala – full name Astala Dylan Willow Geldof-Cohen.

In one candid shot the mother-of-two posed for a selfie with her youngest son, showing off the miraculous similarity between the mother and son.

Her first son Astala was born in April 2012 and Phaedra quickly followed in April 2013; the two children are the product of Peaches’ marriage to second husband Thomas Cohen.

But it isn’t all fun at the Geldof-Cohen household at the minute as baby Phaedy has a cold and mother Peaches appears to be nursing him back to health.

The star took a video of her son’s breathing and captioned it: ‘Phaedra fell asleep for one hour earlier at 7 and has been up since then!! I am going insane here.'

She added: ‘We are in the dark on the bed with him crawling round all over my face breathing on me with his blocked nose and throat breath! This is what it sounds like...lol.’

In the picture of her and her youngest son the star looks happy as she smiles alongside the tiny tot.

With lashings of mascara on, the star had managed to find a quiet five minutes away from the baby to put on some make-up before the day began.

It seems Peaches has put the drama of Katie Hopkins’ comments last year well and truly to bed, and continues to raise her children through following the guidance of attachment parenting.

The pair came to blows on national TV when Katie dared to disagree with the young star’s preferred method of parenting.

The former The Apprentice star ranted in her column the next day: ‘ ‘AP mums believe you should never let your child cry, they sleep with their babies too'.

‘I’m sure hubby Thomas Cohen is thrilled. At the age of 22 and a band member of SCUM, he thought he was marrying into rock randomness. Instead he got Mother Nature with a gob attached.’
