It is claimed that no drug paraphernalia was found near Geldof's body when she was discovered at her home in Wrotham, Kent on April 7, leading to allegations that items could have been removed before a search was conducted.

The journalist and television presenter was only 11 years old when her own mother Paula Yates died of a heroin overdose aged 41 in 2000.

Family and friends of the late star attended a service near Faversham on April 21, which included Sarah Ferguson, Mariella Frostrup, Kate Moss and actress Trudie Styler.


Jools Holland, former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman, actress Jaime Winstone, TV presenter Alexa Chung and Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw also paid their respects.

In her final column for Mother & Baby magazine, Geldof spoke movingly about her "perfect" life with her two children - Astala Dylan Willow, 23 months, and Phaedra Bloom Forever, 11 months - which was published shortly after her passing.
