Peaches Geldof and her boyfriend Max Drummey got married
yesterday in Las Vegas.
The two have been together for four weeks before they decided to exchange vows
in Las Vegas’
Little White Chapel.
According to The Sun, Peaches Geldof’s father Bob Geldof
didn’t get the chance to walk his daughter down the aisle, as he was informed
of his daughter’s plans little time before the ceremony. Peaches Geldof, 19,
and her husband Chester
French drummer Max Drummey, 23, became a pair after Peaches split from her
previous boyfriend Fairs Badwan.
A spokesman for Geldof said that Bob Geldof gave the recent
newlyweds his blessing, even if he didn’t take part to the ceremony. Peaches’ spokesman
also confirmed that the couple was very happy and their families and friends gave
their “full support.”
“The couple tied the knot in a simple low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last week, whilst holidaying in America. Their
marriage has the full support of their family and friends,” said Peaches Geldof’s
spokesman, according to The Sun.
Apparently Peaches Geldof and Max Drummey, a Harvard
anthropology graduate, have known each other for more than a year but they got
together last month after Max Drummey’s band played at the iTunes festival in London.
Rev. Steven Fabretti, the one who performed the ceremony
which lasted about 15 minutes, said that the couple looked happy.
“They held hands and looked eye-to-eye - with him still
wearing sunglasses - during the ceremony. I remember the bride looked very
young and pale and quite angelic,” Steven Fabretti told The Sun.
Bob Geldof and Peaches’ mother, the late Paula Yates, also
got married in Las Vegas
in the 1980s but they separated years later. Paula Yates became Michael
Hutchance’s lover who was found dead on Nov. 22, 1997. Yates died in 2000 from
a heroin overdose.
Peaches Geldof is known for presenting some youth programs like Peaches
Geldof: Teenage Mind and A Beginner’s Guide to Islam.
