Peaches Geldof died as the result of a heroin overdose, reports
The Times of London.
Shortly after Geldof passed away, a spokesperson for the Kent Police told reporters, "At this stage, the death is being treated as an unexplained sudden death. Officers are working to establish the circumstances around the death."
The Daily Mail reported that authorities "found no evidence of hard drugs, a suicide note, or any visible signs of injury," but it looks like we'll know more when the cause of death report is officially released tomorrow at an inquest.
At the time, Peaches' father Bob Geldof said in a
statement on behalf of the entire family, "We are beyond pain. She was the wildest, funniest, cleverest, wittiest and the most bonkers of all of us. Writing ‘was’ destroys me afresh. What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable? We loved her and will cherish her forever. How sad that sentence is."
Peaches' mother was British TV presenter Paula Yates, who died of a drug overdose in September 2000. Peaches was 11 at the time, and in 2012 she spoke to
Elle Magazine about her mom's passing.
"I remember the day my mother died, and it's still hard to talk about it. I just blocked it out. I went to school the next day because my father's mentality was 'keep calm and carry on'," she said. "So we all went to school and tried to act as if nothing had happened. But it had happened. I didn't grieve. I didn't cry at her funeral. I couldn't express anything because I was just numb to it all. I didn't start grieving for my mother properly until I was maybe 16."
Peaches is survived by her husband Thomas Cohen and their two sons, Astala, 23 months, and Phaedra, 11 months.

Justin Bieber certainly knows how to cause some major lady drama between friends! On Monday night, the Biebs had dinner with Kendall Jenner and her pal Hailey Baldwin at midtown Manhattan restaurant Nobu 57 -- which is sure to have set a fire under on-again/off-again girlfriend Selena Gomez.
The three friends were spotted chowing down at the trendy Japanese eatery for nearly two hours, reported
Us Weekly. The threesome apparently noshed on miso soup and sushi rolls. Once the meal was done, Bieber headed out first, then Baldwin and Jenner was the last to leave.
We have a feeling the Selena couldn't be happy upon learning about the Bieb's dinner dates. The former
Wizards of Waverly Place star has been battling the Jenner girls ever since hanging out together at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival a few weekends ago. All the girls were photographed partying together, but soon after the fest, Gomez abruptly unfollowed Kendall, Kylie, and Bieber via Instagram.
Did Kendall give in to the lady-loving 20-year-old while the dulcet sounds of Lorde serenaded them under the hot desert sun?
Apparently things between the "Come and Get It" singer and the reality stars "got messy." A source told the mag that, "Selena said the Jenner girls were flirting with Justin and his crew. She was pissed and overreacted."
Well if Selena didn't like what was happening in front of her eyes -- we're sure she isn't going to like what happened behind her back in the Big Apple.
While the
Spring Breakers may be having a bummer of a week after hearing about this threesome, the "Boyfriend" singer looks like he's having the time of his life in the city that never sleeps.
A day after the dinner, Bieber shared an Instagram surrounded by fans from the sunroof of his car, with the caption, "Love NYC. love #mybeliebers."
We bet Selena Gomez isn't loving any of this. If the Biebs is trying to make her jealous -- he's doing a damn good job!

She's sooooo strange! And we're kinda obsessed with her...
Even though V. Stiviano has consistently been covering her face with a visor since the Donald Sterling scandal broke, the attention she's been getting from the press hasn't stopped her from going about her daily business!
V. left her Los Angeles home on Wednesday morning, and while she wouldn't comment on her relationship with Donald Sterling, she did tell photographers camped outside her residence to "have a beautiful day." Between her gracious words and somewhat conservative black dress, she's not a total weirdo ... but then how do you explain the
roller skating session she had yesterday afternoon with her bodyguard? And just who is she?!
V. was born Maria Vanessa Perez in San Antonio, Texas, and after growing up with little money, she moved to Los Angeles with the hope of making it as a model. She never got on the cover of
Vogue, but apparently she had no problem meeting rich men, as she was also linked to late Lakers owner Jerry Buss! At some point she got involved with Sterling, and in 2011, she was listed as a director of the Donald T. Sterling Charitable Foundation, according to the
LA Times.
And speaking of charity, apparently Sterling gave Stiviano a $1.8 million condo, two Bentleys, a Ferrari and a Range Rover, all of which ruffled the feathers of Sterling's wife Rochelle. Last month Rochelle filed a lawsuit accusing Stiviano of having an affair with Donald, and she also accused her husband of using the couple's money to buy Stiviano her home and cars, which was not something she consented to. Stiviano's lawyer fired back that this wasn't Sterling's "first rodeo" and that Rochelle knew about her husband's adulterous ways for years and even accused her of being his "enabler."
Between this and V. allegedly leaking a recording of Sterling's racist remarks, there's more drama than an episode of
Real Housewives! But when will the visor come off?! We wanna see more of the lady on the left!

Where's she been hiding?! Known for keeping a low profile, Jessica Biel star made a rare appearance in public on Wednesday and was looking damn fine! But where's JT?!
Catching a flight out of LAX, the
A-Team actress showed off her slim pins with white jeans, a white top, black jacket and black flats. We love this simple and chic travel ensemble!
Besides working out, Mrs. Timberlake confessed her diet secret -- a delivery service!
The 32-year-old gave a shout out to Paleta, a farm-to-table meal delivery service, on Twitter, writing, "Thank you ?@eatpaleta for making my life easy & delicious. 3 meals & snacks at my doorstep? Yes pls. ?#PaletaForLife."
The Paleta meals are weekly meals by executive chef Kelly Boyer, and start at $46 a day.
Getting to wake up next to JT and having all your meals delivered?! Sounds like a pretty nice life to us!

Flare
We already really liked Ellen Page, but after her moving coming out speech at the Human Rights Campaign's Time to THRIVE conference on Valentine's Day -- she became one of our favorites. The pint-sized Canuck just opened up to Canadian magazine
Flare and talked about outing herself and the insecurities she felt being in the closet.
For the June issue of the mag, the 27-year-old spoke of her decision to finally go public with her sexual orientation, "You think you're in a place where you're all, 'I'm thrilled to be gay, I have no issues about being gay anymore, I don't feel shame about being gay,' but you actually do. You're just not fully aware of it. I think I still felt scared about people knowing. I felt awkward around gay people; I felt guilty for not being myself."
While the
Hard Candy actress has yet to dish on any current or former flames, she has said one of the reasons she wanted to go public is so she could feel comfortable with a partner, ""The more time went by, the more something just happened, an 'Oh my God—I want to love someone freely and walk down the street and hold my girlfriend's hand,'"
Aside from a few incidents, the
X-Men: Days of Future Past actress said her coming out has been a really good experience. "I expected so much more hate," she admitted. "It was just remarkably positive, which is beautiful, because it's indicative of the change that's happening."
We love hearing all that!

Nooooooo!
After having to
reschedule a handful of her Bangerz tour dates in the U.S. earlier this month, Miley Cyrus has now been forced to postpone her upcoming concerts in Amsterdam and Belgium as she has "had a health setback and her allergic reaction issues have returned."
Yesterday Miley tweeted, "spoke to [sic] soon ... R u f*cking kidding me?!?!?!?? #aprilcangof*ckitself," adding another tweet with about a hundred crying kitty face emojis. And this was just
one day after Miley
chatted with Ryan Seacrest about how thrilled she was to get back on tour!
“I’m doing good, much better, happy to be on the phone with you guys,” Miley told Ryan and co-host Ellen K on Monday. “So basically I had gotten sick while I was on the road. On the sixth day [after taking prescription antibiotics], I just woke up … it was so scary … I had basically been poisoning myself with something I didn’t know I was really scary allergic to.” Miley spent a night in the hospital, and just when she thought she was out of the woods she fell ill again the next morning and was forced to go back to the hospital for another week.
Miley was placed on medical rest by her doctors last month, and at the time her rep said in a statement, "Miley was suffering from a sinus infection during her tour. She was prescribed the antibiotic Cephalexin which she's now suffered an extreme allergic reaction to. This type of extreme reaction can last from five to 27 days in these types of cases. She will remain hospitalized and is under a doctor's care until we see some improvement in her condition and is asking for your compassion and privacy at this time. Miley is devastated about missing shows and possibly disappointing her fans."
It's not clear of more dates will be moved around while the 21-year-old pop superstar recovers -- hopefully she gets better soon!

Maybe that's why he went shopping?
French Montana and a male pal dropped by Century City mall to spend some dough yesterday, and the rapper was wearing the same
outfit we spotted him in the night before on his dinner date with Khloe Kardashian!
Either the new couple had a sleepover and the Morocco native never went back to his house the next morning to change, or he really loves his gun T-shirt!
We think the
Keeping Up with the Kardashians star is way too hot for him to begin with, but the least he could do is try to dress a little less like a poser!

What's going on here?!
LeAnn Rimes hit the recording studio in Hollywood yesterday, and her music session must have put her in a really playful mood, because we caught her doing some pretty hard core flirting with a male pal in the parking lot afterwards!
Although the dude is significantly less attractive than her husband Eddie Cibrian so it's probably innocent enough, we think this type of PDA with a man that's not your spouse is a little too close for comfort!
After all, once a cheater always a cheater!
