Peaches Geldof, the daughter of musician Bob Geldof, has died. She was 25.
Authorities were called to a Kent residence Monday afternoon, according to BBC News, after at least one report of 'concern for the welfare of a woman.'
The woman was later pronounced dead by South East Coast Ambulance services, the news site confirmed.
Geldof, who had a blossoming career in media, had been a contributor to the Telegraph and Guardian newspapers since she was 15, and has been a reporter for ITV's show 'OMG!'
The cause of her death has not yet been revealed, but police are classifying it as 'unexplained and sudden.'
Geldof had been known to struggle with some substance abuse in the past. Her mother, Paula Yates, died of a drug overdose in 2000.
Her last tweet read 'just me and my mum,' and showed an Instagram photo of the two.
Geldof's father, Bob Geldof, is an Irish singer and songwriter who rose to prominence with the 1970s rock band Boomtown Rats.
'Peaches has died,' he said in a statement Monday. '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?'
Geldof leaves behind a husband, musician Thomas Cohen, and their two sons. Her most recent social media post show the adorable tots, one-year-old Astala, and Phaedra, 23 months.
'We loved her and will cherish her forever,' Geldof continued. 'How sad that sentence is. Tom and her sons Astala and Phaedra will always belong in our family, fractured so often, but never broken.'
