FILE - In this Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2014 file photo, Peaches Geldof arrives to attend the ETAM's ready to wear fall/winter 2014-2015 fashion collection presented in Paris. Heroin is like to have played a role in the death of 25-year-old model and television personality Peaches Geldof, authorities said Thursday. Detective Chief Inspector Paul Fotheringham of the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate told an inquest into the death of the second daughter of Live Aid organizer Bob Geldof that a post-mortem examination was inconclusive, prompting further tests. In a 10-minute hearing, Fotheringham discussed her final days. "Recent use of heroin and the levels identified were likely to have played a role in her death," he said. The news offers a sad echo of the death of her mother, television presenter Paula Yates, who died of a drug overdose in 2000 when Peaches Geldof was 11. In her final message on Twitter, she posted a photograph of herself as a toddler next to her mother along with the caption: "Me and my mum." Peaches Geldof died at her home south of London on April 7. Inquests are held in Britain to determine the facts in sudden, violent or unexplained deaths. (AP Photo/C. d'Ettorre, file)
