In a post shared last year, the fashion icon donned a lace-up frock alongside the caption: 'I feel everybody has the potential to be divine.'

He added: 'But am so sad that even after society had to isolate its re-emerging still without a consciousness companionate enough to recognise divinity in those who understand it within themselves the most. Sending a lot of love to everyone.'

Thomas has also grown out his already-lengthy raven tresses, with his hair now cascading past his shoulders and styled into sleek looks. 

MailOnline has reached out to representatives for Thomas for comment.

Rocker Thomas is the widower of Peaches, who died in April 2014 after a drug overdose and shares two sons with his late wife.

Thomas was left a single father after Peaches, daughter of Sir Bob Geldof, suffered a drug overdose aged 25 at their home in Wrotham, Kent, while their son Phaedra remained in the house with her for eight hours.

On discovering her body, Thomas recalled in a 2017 interview with German newspaper Bild how his thoughts were forced to turn immediately to something as mundane as feeding his children their lunch, just one hour later.

He revealed: 'When I found her, I was not surprised. I thought to myself at the moment: ''Yes of course - you had to do that.'' What I can remember, it must have been an hour after I've found it, that it's time for the kids' lunch.

'They needed their lunch. So I took the children's chairs to the table, took the yogurts out of the fridge, the bananas.

'The routine I had to keep up with the children helped me a lot. They have lived longer than they knew their mother. They were just one and two years. Now they are four and five.'

Chatting with the publication, he bitterly discussed the drug that killed her: 'Heroin, is a drug where you're trying to enforce something on you that's greater than life. You can only really... its horrible you're filling your body with something.

'It was incredible traumatising, after it happened... a few months after. Because it was so deeply traumatising you know that moment.

'I want them to be happy, I don't care what they end up doing. They are miraculously having happy childhoods which hopefully leads to happy fruitful lives.'

In a statement released shortly after Peaches' death, Thomas said: 'My beloved wife Peaches was adored by myself and her two sons Astala and Phaedra and I shall bring them up with their mother in their hearts everyday. We shall love her forever. Thomas, Astala and Phaedra Geldof-Cohen.'

Peaches' death had tragic echoes of history repeating itself as her mother Paula Yates passed away in 2000, aged 41, from an accidental heroin overdose at her London home.

When she died, Paula was in the house with her then - four-year-old daughter Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily, who she shared with INXS rocker Michael Hutchence. Her death occured on Peaches' sister and her daughter, Pixie's 10th birthday.

At Peaches' inquest in July 2014 it was revealed she had codine, methadone and morphine in her blood stream while drug paraphernalia, including spoons, tights and a capped syringe were found hidden in a box of sweets next to her body.

Police discovered a bag containing 6.9g of heroin, which they revealed sat at a high grade at around 61 per cent purity, while being priced at around £350 to £500.

During the inquest Thomas confirmed she had been attending treatment for two years and was undergoing weekly drug tests, which she maintained always came back clean - a claim he believed at the time.
