Fifi Trixibelle Geldof announces engagement just days after her father Sir Bob announces he will marry girlfriend of 18 years
FIFI Trixibelle Geldof has announced her engagement just days after her father Sir Bob proposed to his girlfriend of 18 years.
JUST a few weeks after the tragic death of Peaches Geldof, it seems her passing is bringing her devastated family together.
Sir Bob Geldof proposed just days ago to his girlfriend of 18 years, Jeanne Marine in the hope his family would have something positive to focus on after his daughter’s death.
And now Peaches’ sister, Fifi Trixibelle has announced she too is engaged to her boyfriend, Andrew Robertson.
The 31-year-old uploaded a picture of her engagement ring on Instagram, with the caption “boydonegood”.
Robertson, a street performer and sand sculptor, and Geldof, a PR executive, will reportedly hold the wedding in July next year. They have been dating for a year.
“I think we all need a happy family event now,” a friend of the pair told the Daily Mail.
The news comes after her father’s friend Jerry Hall spilled the news of the rocker’s engagement to the UK press.
“Bob has proposed. She is over the moon,” Hall said. “Jeanne Marine has been a rock and a tower of strength over this. I’m so excited for her I am bursting to tell someone.
“Bob and Jeanne have been through hell, but they are determined something positive will come out of it.
“After all the sadness, we need something to focus on which will bring joy and light.”
An inquest into Peaches death last week found that she died of a heroin overdose, the same fate as her late mother, Paula Yates.
